Capacity of the tank = 45 gallon
At the beginning of Oct., amount of oil in the tank = 45*0.8 = 36 gallons
At the end of Oct., amount of oil in the tank = 45*1/3 = 15 gallons
So, amount of oil used during Oct = (36-15) = 21 gallons

Arrange the entries of matrix A in increasing order of their cofactors values

givi [52]

To find the cofactor of

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&5&3\\-7&4&-1\\-8&2&1\end{array}\right]$

We cross out the Row and columns of the respective entries and find the determinant of the remaining $2\times 2$ matrix with the alternating signs.

$Ac_{11}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}4&-1\\2&1\end{array}\right|$

$Ac_{11}=4\times 1- -1\times 2$

$Ac_{11}=4+ 2$

$Ac_{11}=6$

$Ac_{12}=-\left|\begin{array}{ccc}-7&-1\\-8&1\end{array}\right|$

$Ac_{12}=-(-7\times 1- -1\times -8)$

$Ac_{12}=-(-7- 8)$

$Ac_{12}=15$

$Ac_{21}=-\left|\begin{array}{ccc}5&3\\2&1\end{array}\right|$

$Ac_{21}=-(5\times 1- 3\times 2)$

$Ac_{21}=-(5-6)$

$Ac_{21}=1$

$A_c{23}=-\left|\begin{array}{ccc}7&5\\-8&2\end{array}\right|$

$Ac_{23}=-(7\times 2 -8\times 5)$

$Ac_{23}=-(14-40)$

$Ac_{23}=26$

$A_c{31}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}5&3\\4&-1\end{array}\right|$

$Ac_{31}=5\times -1 -4\times 3$

$Ac_{31}=-5-12$

$Ac_{31}=-17$

$A_c{33}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}7&5\\-7&4\end{array}\right|$

$Ac_{33}=7\times 4- -7\times 5$

$Ac_{33}=28+35$

$Ac_{33}=63$

Therefore in increasing order, we have;

$Ac_{31}=-17,Ac_{21}=1,Ac_{11}=6,Ac_{23}=26,Ac_{12}=15, Ac_{33}=63$

Can anybody please help solving this problem?

Area of the shaded region = Area <span>of a square - Area of a circle
</span>
Side of a square = 2r
Area of a square = (2r)² = 4r²

Area of a circle = πr²

Area of the shaded region = 4r² - πr² = <span>r²(4-π)</span>
