Answer:

The 1st answer, <em>The blue whale has about 200 times more mass. </em>might be correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

9 x 10 ^2= 900 kilograms

1.8 × 10 ^5= 180000 kilograms

180000 kilograms / 900 kilograms= 200 times

For the following linear system, put the augmented coefficient matrix into reduced row-echelon form.

Anni [7]

Answer:

The reduced row-echelon form of the linear system is $\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&0\\0&1&3&0\\0&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve the original system of linear equations by performing a sequence of the following elementary row operations on the augmented matrix:

Interchange two rows
Multiply one row by a nonzero number
Add a multiple of one row to a different row

To find the reduced row-echelon form of this augmented matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}2&3&-1&14\\1&2&1&4\\5&9&2&7\end{array}\right]$

You need to follow these steps:

Divide row 1 by 2 $\left(R_1=\frac{R_1}{2}\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&3/2&-1/2&7\\1&2&1&4\\5&9&2&7\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 1 from row 2 $\left(R_2=R_2-R_1\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&3/2&-1/2&7\\0&1/2&3/2&-3\\5&9&2&7\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 1 multiplied by 5 from row 3 $\left(R_3=R_3-\left(5\right)R_1\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&3/2&-1/2&7\\0&1/2&3/2&-3\\0&3/9&9/2&-28\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 2 multiplied by 3 from row 1 $\left(R_1=R_1-\left(3\right)R_2\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&16\\0&1/2&3/2&-3\\0&3/9&9/2&-28\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 2 multiplied by 3 from row 3 $\left(R_3=R_3-\left(3\right)R_2\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&16\\0&1/2&3/2&-3\\0&0&0&-19\end{array}\right]$

Multiply row 2 by 2 $\left(R_2=\left(2\right)R_2\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&16\\0&2&3&-6\\0&0&0&-19\end{array}\right]$

Divide row 3 by −19 $\left(R_3=\frac{R_3}{-19}\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&16\\0&2&3&-6\\0&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 3 multiplied by 16 from row 1 $\left(R_1=R_1-\left(16\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&0\\0&1&3&-6\\0&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Add row 3 multiplied by 6 to row 2 $\left(R_2=R_2+\left(6\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-5&0\\0&1&3&0\\0&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

7(9) = 9(7)

vivado [14]

Answer:

A) Commutative

Step-by-step explanation:

The Associative has to do with re-grouping numbers. There are only two numbers so this does not apply here. Commutative is where you change the order; that's what the equation is demonstrating.

A tile is selected from seven tiles, each labeled with a different letter from the first seven letters of the alphabet.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

U= {A,B,C,D,E,F,G}

X = {A, B, C, D}

Y = {A, C, E, F}

a) X or Y = {A, B, C, D} and {A, C, E, F} = {A, B, C, D, E, F}

B) X and Y = {A, B, C, D} or {A, C, E, F} = {A, C}

c) Complement of X = {A,B,C,D,E,F,G} - {A, B, C, D} = {B,D,G}

A class consists of 63 women and 86 men. If a student is randomly selected, what is the probability that the student is a woman?

solmaris [256]

First, we need to get the total number students by adding the number of men and women. 63 + 86 = 149. This is the total number of samples. To get the probability that a randomly selected is a woman, we can write the ratio as 63:149 or the probability is 63/149.
