Answer: x = -1/2 = -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an equation

4x + 7 = 5 subtract 7 from both sides

4x = - 2 divide both sides by 4

x = -2/4

x = -1/2 = -0.5

Find the dimensions of a rectangle with perimeter 116 m whose area is as large as possible. (if both values are the same number,
creativ13 [48]
The dimensions would be 29 by 29.

To maximize area and minimize perimeter, we make the dimensions as close to equilateral as possible.  

Dividing the perimeter by the number of sides, we have

116/4 = 29

This means that both length and width can be 29.

Find the eigenvalues of the matrix: <br><br> [-43 0 80]<br> [40 -3 80]<br> [24 0 45]
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

-3

1 + 4 sqrt( 241 )

1 - 4 sqrt( 241 )

Step-by-step explanation:

We need minus lambda on the entries down the diagonal. I'm going to use m instead of the letter for lambda.

[-43-m 0 80]

[40 -3-m 80]

[24 0 45-m]

Now let's find the determinant

(-43-m)[(-3-m)(45-m)-0(80)]

-0[40(45-m)-80(24)]

+80[40(0)-(-3-m)(24)]

Let's simplify:

(-43-m)[(-3-m)(45-m)]

-0

+80[-(-3-m)(24)]

Continuing:

(-43-m)[(-3-m)(45-m)]

+80[-(-3-m)(24)]

I'm going to factor (-3-m) from both terms:

(-3-m)[(-43-m)(45-m)-80(24)]

Multiply the pair of binomials in the brackets and the other pair of numbers;

(-3-m)[-1935-2m+m^2-1920]

Simplify and reorder expression in brackets:

(-3-m)[m^2-2m-3855]

Set equal to 0 to find the eigenvalues

-3-m=0 gives us m=-3 as one eigenvalue

The other is a quadratic and looks scary because of the big numbers.

I guess I will use quadratic formula and a calculator.

(2 +/- sqrt( (-2)^2 - 4(1)(-3855) )/(2×1)

(2 +/- sqrt( 15424 )/(2)

(2 +/- sqrt( 64 )sqrt( 241 )/(2)

(2 +/- 8 sqrt( 241 )/(2)

1 +/- 4 sqrt( 241 )

HELP ASAP!!!
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The line (y-1)=(2/3)(x+1) contains point (a,-3)

=> (-3-1) = (⅔)(a+1)

-4 = (⅔)(a+1(

(a+1)= -4 ÷ ⅔

a + 1 = -4 × 3/2

a+ 1 = -6

a = -6-1

a = -7
