All the components in the state vector need to sum to 1. You're given that component corresponding to state 1 is 0.2, and that the component for state 3 is 0.

That leaves states 2 and 4, for which you're told that the component for state 2 is four times as large. If x_i is the component for state i, then you have

x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4=1\iff 0.2+4x_4+0+x_4=1\implies5x_4=0.8\implies x_4=0.16

which means x_2=4x_4=0.64. So the state vector is \mathbf x=(0.2,0.64,0,0.16).

Find the ratio of book price to number of pages for each ordered pair. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. A 3-column ta
Harlamova29_29 [7]

The ratio of book price to number of pages for the ordered pairs a, b , and c are:

  • <em>A = 0.05</em>
  • <em>B = 0.05</em>
  • <em>C = 0.043</em>

The ratio of book price to number of pages can be evaluated for each ordered pairs as follows;

  • For a = 20.00/400 = 0.05

  • For b = 6.25/125 = 0.05

  • For c = 15.0/350 = 0.043

Therefore, ratio of book price to number of pages for the ordered pairs a, b , and c are:

a = 0.05

b = 0.05

c = 0.043

Can anyone find the x and y intercepts for this equation?
ASHA 777 [7]
<span><u>1/3x - 1/2y = 1</u>

At the 'x' intercept, y=0 , and the equation is    1/3 x = 1

Multiply each side by 3 :            <em>x = 3 </em> <== the x-intercept


At the 'y' intercept,  x=0, and the equation is  -1/2 y = 1

Multiply each side by  2 :            - y = 2

Multiply each side by  -1 :            <em> y = -2  </em>  <== the y-intercept
