(b) Find all 3-tuples (a,b,c) satisfying

1 answer:

4 0

We have a three unknown, 4 equation homogeneous system. These always have at least (0,0,0) as a solution. Let's write the equations, one column at a time.

1a + 0b + 0c = 0

-1a + 1b +0c = 0

0a - 1b + c = 0

0a + 0b + -1 c = 0

We could do row reduction but these are easy enough not to bother.

Equation 1 says

a = 0

Equation 4 says

c = 0

Substituting in the two remaining,

-1(0) + 1b + 0c = 0

b = 0

0(0) - 1b + 0 = 0

b = 0

The only 3-tuple satisfying the vector equation is (a,b,c)=(0,0,0)

What is 45=m(25)+b solving for m

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$\frac{45-b}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

given

45 = 25m + b ( isolate the term in m by subtracting b from both sides )

45 - b = 25m ← divide both sides by 25

$\frac{45-b}{25}$ = m

What is exact the slope of the line through (-9, 6) and ( -3 ,9 )

Tatiana [17]

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-9,6)....x1 = -9 and y1 = 6
(-3,9)...x2 = -3 and y2 = 9
now we sub and solve
slope = (9 - 6) / (-3 - (-9) = 3 / (-3 + 9) = 3/6 = 1/2 <=

What is the area of this rectangle? 10units 20units 24units 48 units

aksik [14]

Answer:

24 units ^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The base runs from 3 to 7 so the base is 7-3 = 4 units

The height runs from 2 to 8 so the height is 8-2 = 6 units

The area is

Someone please help me I only have until January 18th to turn this in. Question: Mr Lopez picks up 2 pallets of dog food to deli

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Mr. Lopez delivers 1.5 tons of dog food to the animal shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr Lopez picks up 2 pallets of dog food to deliver to the animal shelter. Each pallet contains 40 bags of dog food, and the dog food weighs 37 1/2 pounds pet bag.

The weight of 1 bag of dog food = $37\frac{1}{2}\text{ pounds }$

The weight of 40 bags of dog food = $40 \times 37\frac{1}{2} =1500 \text{ pounds }$

Each pallet weighs = 1500 pounds

2 pallets weighs = 1500×2=3000 pounds.

We know that 2000 pounds = 1 ton

$\frac{3000}{2000} \text{ pounds}=1.5 \text{ tons}$

Hence, Mr. Lopez delivers 1.5 tons of dog food to the animal shelter.
