Tax=tax rate times cost of product
tax=17.50
cost of product=250
17.50=rate times 250
divide both sides by 250
17.50/250=rate
0.07=rate
percent means parts out of 100
0.07/1 times 100/100=7/100=7%
7%=rate

answer is 7% tax

Suppose a system of linear equations has a 3 5 augmented matrix whose fifth column is a pivot column. is the system consistent?
likoan [24]

Answer:

The system will be inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a system of linear equations has a 3×5 augmented matrix whose fifth column is a pivot column.

Then such a system is not consistent because since the augmented matrix has a pivot in fifth column it means that the new column added to the matrix A will lead to increase in the rank as that of matrix  A.

Hence the rank of A and Augment A will not remain same and hence the system will be inconsistent.
