Answer:

Distance from home to school = $\frac{1}{4}\times 3= \frac{3}{4}\ mile$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance from home to school be = $x$ miles

After walking $\frac{1}{4}$ mile, Han is $\frac{1}{3}$ rd of the way.

$\frac{1}{3} \textrm{ of the total distance } = \frac{1}{4}\ mile$

$\frac{1}{3}x= \frac{1}{4}\ mile$

Multiplying both sides by $3$

$3\times\frac{1}{3}x= \frac{1}{4}\times 3$

$x= \frac{3}{4}\ mile$

Distance from home to school = $\frac{3}{4}\ mile$

Assume {v1, . . . , vn} is a basis of a vector space V , and T : V ------> W is an isomorphism where W is another vector spac

Degger [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that $w_1,\dots w_n$ form a basis for W, we must check that this set is a set of linearly independent vector and it generates the whole space W. We are given that T is an isomorphism. That is, T is injective and surjective. A linear transformation is injective if and only if it maps the zero of the domain vector space to the codomain's zero and that is the only vector that is mapped to 0. Also, a linear transformation is surjective if for every vector w in W there exists v in V such that T(v) =w

Recall that the set $w_1,\dots w_n$ is linearly independent if and only if the equation

$\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n=0$ implies that

$\lambda_1 = \cdots = \lambda_n$ .

Recall that $w_i = T(v_i)$ for i=1,...,n. Consider $T^{-1}$ to be the inverse transformation of T. Consider the equation

$\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n=0$

If we apply $T^{-1}$ to this equation, then, we get

$T^{-1}(\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n) =T^{-1}(0) = 0$

Since T is linear, its inverse is also linear, hence

$T^{-1}(\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n) = \lambda_1T^{-1}(w_1)+\dots + \lambda_nT^{-1}(w_n)=0$

which is equivalent to the equation

$\lambda_1v_1+\dots + \lambda_nv_n =0$

Since $v_1,\dots,v_n$ are linearly independt, this implies that $\lambda_1=\dots \lambda_n =0$ , so the set $\{w_1, \dots, w_n\}$ is linearly independent.

Now, we will prove that this set generates W. To do so, let w be a vector in W. We must prove that there exist $a_1, \dots a_n$ such that

$w = a_1w_1+\dots+a_nw_n$

Since T is surjective, there exists a vector v in V such that T(v) = w. Since $v_1,\dots, v_n$ is a basis of v, there exist $a_1,\dots a_n$ , such that

$a_1v_1+\dots a_nv_n=v$

Then, applying T on both sides, we have that

$T(a_1v_1+\dots a_nv_n)=a_1T(v_1)+\dots a_n T(v_n) = a_1w_1+\dots a_n w_n= T(v) =w$

which proves that $w_1,\dots w_n$ generate the whole space W. Hence, the set $\{w_1, \dots, w_n\}$ is a basis of W.

Consider the linear transformation $T:\mathbb{R}^2\to \mathbb{R}^2$ , given by T(x,y) = T(x,0). This transformations fails to be injective, since T(1,2) = T(1,3) = (1,0). Consider the base of $\mathbb{R}^2$ given by (1,0), (0,1). We have that T(1,0) = (1,0), T(0,1) = (0,0). This set is not linearly independent, and hence cannot be a base of $\mathbb{R}^2$

An electronics store has two options for liquidating televisions that have not sold.

Oksanka [162]

Answser: first option <span>350(0.95)^x + 30x - 350

Explanation:

You can figure out the </span><span>function that shows the difference in price between option 1 and option 2 if you make a table simulating the behavior for a few months:

month                 price as per option 1          price as per option 2

start               350                                     350

1                          350 - 5% (350) =                350 - 30
                            = 350 (0,95)

2                          350 (0,95)×(0,95) =
                            350 (0,95)²                         350 - 30(2)

3                           350 (0,95)³                        350 - 30(3)

So now you can figure out the price with each option after x months:

                             350 (0.95)ˣ                        350 - 30x

And the difference is 350 (0.95)ˣ - [350 - 30x]

Which, expanding the square brackets, is 350 (0.95)ˣ + 30x - 350 ↔ the first option.
