We have been given two matrices a and b. A has 6 rows and 7 columns, while b has 7 rows and 8 columns.
Since we know that order matters in matrix multiplication. In order for matrix multiplication to be defined number of columns in the first matrix should be equal to the number of rows of in the second matrix.
We can see that number of columns in matrix a and number of rows in matrix b is 7.
Therefore, size of ab will be equal to number of rows of matrix a and number of columns of matrix b that is 6 by 8.
Now we will see whether ba is defined or not. We can see columns in matrix b are 8 and rows in matrix a are 6, which is not equal. So we can say that ba is not defined.
Therefore, size of ba is not defined (dne).
Answer:
The correct answer is Option 4: 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is:

We have to find a number that is common multiple of all the denominators or least common divisor
So to find the LCM
The numbers in denominator are: 4,3,2
So,

It can clearly be seen that 12 is the LCM of all three numbers so the equation will be multiplied with 12 to eliminate the fractions.

Hence,
The correct answer is Option 4: 12
They are expected to win back on average 50 cents back, which is a bad investment.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation is x = k / y
therefore k = x* y
k = 2*8
k= 16
