Answer:
B, C, E, & F
Step-by-step explanation:
Option A is incorrect because the equation Ax = b is referred to as a matrix equation, not a vector equation.
Option B is correct. If Ax = b has a solution, vector b will a linear combination of columns of matrix A.
Option C is correct. In a matrix equation, product Ax when defined, is a sum of products.
Option D is incorrect. If an augmented matrix [Ab] had a pivot position in every row, there could be a pivot in the last column which would make it inconsistent.
Option E is correct. If the columns of an m×n matrix A span
, then the equation Ax=b is consistent for each b in
Option F is correct. IfA is an m x n matrix whose columns do not span, then the equation Ax = b is inconsistent for some b in
Options B, C, E, and F are correct.
(1/2(AC) * DC) / (1/2(BC) * DC) = 3/4
AC / BC = 3/4
The coordinate of C be (x, y), then
((4(1) + 3(8))/7, (4(-9) + 3(-2))/7) = ((4 + 24)/7, (-36 - 6)/7) = (28/7, -42/7) = (4, -6)
If you know that -2 is a zero of f(x) = x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x - 12, explain how to solve the equation.
First you have to figure out what could make f(x) = 0 to get rid of the cube. I'm going to test the array of data, x = -2, x = -3, and x = -4 because this type of equation probably has more negative values given that if you plug in some values the cubed-values and squared-values will surpass the "-12". Plug this into a calculator.
x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x - 12
f(-2) = -8 + 28 - 8 - 12 = 0
So you know that when x = -2, f(x) = 0. Divide "(x + 2)" from the equation and you will get... x^2 + 5x - 6. Now this is a simple polynomial one that you can figure to be (x + 6) (x - 1) just by looking at it because -6 multiplied by 1 is negative 6 and you see 5 and know that 6 - 1 = 5.
The solution is (x + 6) (x - 1) (x + 2) meaning that when x = -6, 1, or -2, f(x) is 0.
If were talking fractions then its the Denominator
its definitely -2.5........
