Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a expression:

5x - (x + 3)^2

and we have to evaluate it at x=2

Putting x=2 in above expression, we get

5\times 2 - (2 + 3)^2\\\\=10-5^2\\\\=10-25\\\\=-15

Amir's Calculation is as follows:

5(2) - (2 + 3)^2 = 10 + (-5)^2 = 10 + 25 = 35

He took the minus sign before the bracket of (2+3)² inside the bracket

i.e. instead of writing -(2+3)²= -5²= -25

he wrote it as -(2+3)²= (-5)²

and the correct answer is:

-15

The equation of a circle is given below. x ^2 +(y-2.25)^2 =196/169. What is the center? What is the radius?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

center : (0, 2.25)

radius: 14/13

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+(y-2.25)^2=196/169

Rewrite x^2+(y-2.25)^2=196/169

(x-0)^2+(y-2.25)^2=(14/13)^2

c=(0,2.25),r= (14/13)

Suppose that A and B are square matrices and that ABC is invertible. Show that each of A, B, and C is invertible.
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A, B and C be square matrices, let D = ABC. Suppose also that D is an invertible square matrix. Since D is an invertible matrix, then det (D) \neq 0. Now, det (D) = det (ABC) = det (A) det (B) det (C) \neq 0. Therefore,

det (A) \neq 0

det (B) \neq 0

det (C) \neq 0

which proves that A, B and C are invertible square matrices.
