Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7\\4\\2\end{array}\right]$

The answer is a single-column matrix (7,4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In such multiplication of matrices, you have to proceed by multiplying each ROW of the first matrix by the COLUMN of the second matrix. So,

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&6&1\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\0\\1\end{array}\right] = (3 * 2) + (6 * 0) + (1 * 1) = 6 + 0 + 1 = 7$

then...

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&4&0\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\0\\1\end{array}\right] = (2 * 2) + (4 * 0) + (0 * 1) = 4 + 0 + 0 = 4$

and

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&6&2\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\0\\1\end{array}\right] = (0 * 2) + (6 * 0) + (2 * 1) = 0 + 0 + 2= 2$

I hope it helps.

If a line has a slope of 4 and contains the point (-2, 5), what is its equation in point-slope form?

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 4x + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we want to write the equation of the line using the point slope form.

Mathematically, the point slope form can be represented as;

(y-y1) = m(x - x1)

where x1 = -2 , y1 = 5 and m which is the slope is 4

Plugging these values into the equation, we have;

(y-5) = 4(x - (-2))

y-5 = 4(x + 2)

y -5 = 4x + 8

y = 4x + 8 + 5

y = 4x + 13

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will have the same slope as the reference line. In this case, I don't see the "given line" as promised in the question. If it does appear, and it looks like y = 5x + 3, for example, the slope is 5 and the new line will have the same slope.

<h3><u>If this slope is correct</u>, we can start the equation for the parallel line that goes through point (-3,2) by starting with:</h3><h3 /><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3 /><h3>We need a value of b that forces the line to go through point (-3,2). We can do that by using the given point in the equation and solving for b:</h3><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3>2 = 5(-3) + b</h3><h3>b = 17</h3><h3 /><h3>The parallel line to y=5x+3 is</h3><h3>y = 5x + 17</h3><h3 /><h3>See attachment.</h3><h3 /><h3 /><h3 />

Find the largest positive integer that will divide 542, 436, 398 leaving reminders 7, 11, 15 respectively

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question for finding the numbers that will divide 398, 436 and 542 leaving remainder 7, 11 and 15 respectively we have to first subtract the remainder of the following. By this step we find the highest common factor of the numbers.

And then the required number is the HCF of the following numbers that are formed when the remainder are subtracted from them.

Clearly, the required number is the HCF of the numbers 398−7=391,436−11=425, and, 542−15=527

We will find the HCF of 391, 425 and 527 by prime factorization method.

391=17×23425=52×17527=17×31

Hence, HCF of 391, 4250 and 527 is 17 because the greatest common factor from all the numbers is 17 only.

So we can say that the largest number that will divide 398, 436 and 542 leaving remainders 7, 11 and 15 respectively is 17.

Note: - whenever we face such a type of question the key concept for solving this question is whenever in the question it is asking about the largest number it divides. You should always think about the highest common factor i.e. HCF. we have to subtract remainder because you have to find a factor that means it should be perfectly divisible so to make divisible we subtract remainder. because remainder is the extra number so on subtracting remainder it becomes divisible.
