Whats the choices? I got 46
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the determinant of a 3x3 matrix, you can use this method. (See picture.)
Start with the first number in the top row, and block off the row and column. A 2x2 matrix will be left. Find the determinant of this 2x2 matrix, and multiply it by the number in the top row.
Repeat for the other two numbers in the top row. Add the first result, subtract the second, and add the third.
det A = -2 [(3)(-5) − (a)(0)] − 2 [(0)(-5) − (a)(0)] + b [(0)(0) − (3)(0)]
det A = -2 (3)(-5) − 0 + 0
det A = 30
Answer:
C. 244
Step-by-step explanation:
It costs 79 dollars a month = 79x
It costs 0.15 dollars for every text message over 1000 = 0.15y
The equation is:
79x + 0.15y = z
X = months
Y = Each text message over 1000
Z = the total amount spent
Let's plug in our values
79(1) + 0.15(1100) = z
79 * 1 = 79
0.15 * 1100 = 165
79 + 165 = z
79 + 165 = 244
z = 244

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that 28 + 110 + 42 = 180, and that 28 + 42 + 110 = 180 also.
Since all three angles of one triangle are the same as the corresponding angles of the other triangle, the triangles are similar.
Answer:
the probability is 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the coins are randomly selected, the probability of pulling a dime first is the number of dimes (4) divided by the total number of coins (10).
p(dime first) = 4/10 = 2/5
Then, having drawn a dime, there are 9 coins left, of which 5 are nickels. The probability of randomly choosing a nickel is 5/9.
The joint probability of these two events occurring sequentially is the product of their probabilities:
p(dime then nickel) = (2/5)×(5/9) = 2/9
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
You can go at this another way. You can list all the pairs of coins that can be drawn. There are 90 of them: 10 first coins and, for each of those, 9 coins that can be chosen second. Of these 90 possibilities, there are 4 dimes that can be chosen first, and 5 nickels that can be chosen second, for a total of 20 possible dime-nickel choices out of the 90 total possible outcomes.
p(dime/nickel) = 20/90 = 2/9
