Is it possible to contruct a 4x3 matrix b and a 3x4 matrix c such that bc is invertible?

1 answer:

3 0

Matrix B has dimensions 4x3
Matrix C has dimensions 3x4

Write out those dimensions like so: 4x3 3x4
The inner '3's match up so B*C is possible. The dimensions of B*C is 4x4 as these are the outer dimensions when lining up 4x3 3x4

Since B*C is a square matrix, it is possible that an inverse could exist. Keep in mind that this isn't a guarantee as the determinant of B*C could be zero (which would lead to BC being non-invertible). Though of course we'd need more info.

Where should Jenna insert parentheses to make the equation true? 2 + 4.5+ 1 = 26

The best thing I can think of is
((2)(4))(.5+1)=(2)(6)
because (2*4)(1.5)= 8*1.5
= 12
and 2*6 =12
and 12=12

I hope this is right and I hope it helps!

Interest = $72.30 Principle = ? Rate = 5% Time = 3 years

gladu [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

P = $ 482.00

Equation:

P = I / rt

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,

then, solving our equation

P = 72.3 / ( 0.05 × 3 ) = 482

P = $ 482.00

The principal required to

accumulate interest of $ 72.30

on a rate of 5% per year for 3 years is $ 482.00.

hope it helps :)
