we know that

The metric system is a called a decimal-based system because it is based on multiples of ten.

Part 1) When you move the decimal point two places to the left to convert a metric unit it is the same as ?

It's the same as dividing the measurement by 100.

Part 2) When you move the decimal point two places to the right to convert a metric unit it is the same as ?

It's the same as multiplying the measurement by 100.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Option D) 340

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = $47

Margin of error = 5

95% Confidence Interval:

$\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$\text{Margin of error} = z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

$5 = 1.96(\dfrac{47}{\sqrt{n}} )\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{47\times 1.96}{5}\\\\n = 339.443776\\\Rightarrow n \approx 340$

Thus, the correct answer is

Option D) 340

The system of equations may have a unique solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solution. Use matrices to find the ge

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Infinite number of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given system of equations

$5x+4y+5z=-1$

$x+y+2z=1$

$2x+y-z=-3$

Firs we find determinant of system of equations

Let a matrix A= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&4&5\\1&1&2\\2&1&-1\end{array}\right]$ and B= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1\\1\\-3\end{array}\right]$

$\mid A\mid=\begin{vmatrix}5&4&5\\1&1&2\\2&1&-1\end{vmatrix}$

$\mid A\mid=5(-1-2)-4(-1-4)+5(1-2)=-15+20-5=0$

Determinant of given system of equation is zero therefore, the general solution of system of equation is many solution or no solution.

We are finding rank of matrix

Apply $R_1\rightarrow R_1-4R_2$ and $R_3\rightarrow R_3-2R_2$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&1\\1&1&2\\0&-1&-3\end{array}\right]$ : $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5\\1\\-5\end{array}\right]$

Apply $R_2\rightarrow R_2-R_1$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&1\\0&1&1\\0&-1&-3\end{array}\right]$ : $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5\\6\\-5\end{array}\right]$

Apply $R_3\rightarrow R_3+R_2$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&1\\0&1&1\\0&0&-2\end{array}\right]$ : $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5\\6\\1\end{array}\right]$

Apply $R_3\rightarrow- \frac{1}{2}$ and $R_2\rightarrow R_2-R_3$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&1\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$ : $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5\\\frac{13}{2}\\-\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]$

Apply $R_1\rightarrow R_1-R_3$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$ : $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-\frac{9}{2}\\\frac{13}{2}\\-\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]$

Rank of matrix A and B are equal.Therefore, matrix A has infinite number of solutions.

Therefore, rank of matrix is equal to rank of B.

I just need no. a please help me to prove this.

OleMash [197]

Answer: see proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A + B + C = π and cos A = cos B · cos C

scratchwork:

A + B + C = π

A = π - (B + C)

cos A = cos [π - (B + C)] Apply cos

= - cos (B + C) Simplify

= -(cos B · cos C - sin B · sin C) Sum Identity

= sin B · sin C - cos B · cos C Simplify

cos B · cos C = sin B · sin C - cos B · cos C Substitution

2cos B · cos C = sin B · sin C Addition

$2=\dfrac{\sin B\cdot \sin C}{\cos B \cdot \cos C}$ Division

2 = tan B · tan C

$\text{Use the Sum Identity:}\quad \tan(B+C)=\dfrac{\tan B+\tan C}{1-\tan B\cdot \tan C}$

Proof LHS → RHS

Given: A + B + C = π

Subtraction: A = π - (B + C)

Apply tan: tan A = tan(π - (B + C))

Simplify: = - tan (B + C)

$\text{Sum Identity:}\qquad \qquad \qquad =-\bigg(\dfrac{\tan B+\tan C}{1-\tan B\cdot \tan C}\bigg)$

Substitution: = -(tan B + tan C)/(1 - 2)

Simplify: = -(tan B + tan C)/-1

= tan B + tan C

LHS = RHS: tan B + tan C = tan B + tan C $\checkmark$
