If Matrix A has dimensions 1x3 and Matrix B has dimensions 3x4, can these be multiplied?

Mathematics

A=1x3 means 1 row and 3 columns.
B=3x4 means 3 rows and 4 columns.

AB is a compatible multiplication because A has three columns and B has 3 rows.

However, BA is not a compatible multiplication because B has 4 columns while A has only 1 row.

The general trick is if you read the row/column of the two matrices as 1-3-3-4, and the two middle ones are identical, then AB would be a compatible multiplication.  On the other hand, BA would read 3-4-1-3, since 4 and 1 are not identical, so it is not a valid multiplication.

Do remember 1x3 means 1 ROW and 3 COLUMNS.

Answer:

1)86

2)102

3)118

4)134

Step-by-step explanation:

1) so we know that the photographer started off with 86 photographs and has been uploading 16 each month since then

so in month 1 she would have 86

in month 2: 86+16=102

month 3: 102+16=118

month 4: 118+16=134

you could also use the expression

y=16x+70

how to get this equation: get slope(16) by subtracting p coords and m coord

substitute slope in slope intercept form

y=16x+b

insert in a coordinate pair(1,86)

86=16+b

b=70

hence y=16x+70

Pat deposited $2000,at 6% simple intrest. how long will it be before she has $2600 in her account?
Katarina [22]
Simple interest=PRT  P=principal(initial amount)  R=interest rate  T=time(in years)
she wants 2600 in her account so 2600-2000=600 dollars in interest so   

600=2000*.06*T
600=120T  600/120=5  so in 5 years her account balance will be $2600
