Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a system of equations as

x1-4x2 - x4 = -7\\ \\x2 - 2x4 = 3 \\\\x4 + 2x5 = 3

We have 5 variables and 3 equations

a) coefficient matrix of this system is

1   -4   0   -1   0\\

0    1   0   -2   0\\

0    0   0    1    2\\

We find that x3 has no coefficient in any of the equations so we can omit x3 and write as equations for 4 variables as

1   -4     -1   0\\

0    1     -2   0\\

0    0     1    2\\

b) Augmented matrix is

1   -4     -1   0\\  7

0    1     -2   0\\ 3

0    0     1    2\\3

c) For row operations to ehelon form

we can do R1+4R2 = R1

We get

1   0   -9  0 \\  19

0   1  -2   0 \\   3

0   0   1   2  \\   3

Now let us do R1 = R1+9R3 and R2 = R2+2R3

1  0   0   0  \\ 46

0  1   0   0   \\  9

0   0  1   2   \\  3

d) We find that there are infinite solutions to  the system in parametric form, since x4 and x5 are linked with only one equation

e) x1 = 46, x2 = 9, x4+2x5 =3

Or x1 =46, x2 =9, x4 = 3-2x5, x5 = x5 is the parametric solution

Which graph shows a set of ordered pairs that represent a function?<br><br>Need help​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The third graph, the top right graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A function when determined graphically is a graph that passes the straight line test, which means if there is any two points on the graph which you can plot a vertical straight line going through both of them it is not a function.  If 1 x value is equal to 2 y values, it is not a function.

A line passes through the point (–2, 7) and has a slope of –5. A coordinate plane. What is the value of a if the point (a, 2) is
Nana76 [90]

Y = mx + c

7= (-5)(-2)+ c

7= 10 +c

7-10=c

-3=c

Equation of the line: y = -5x-3

Sub in (a, 2)

2= - 5(a)-3

2+3= -5a

5= - 5a

1= - a

A = -1

The histogram shows the number of yards gained on first downs. How many times did the team gain at least 6 yards on first downs?
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

8 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached histogram

Required

The number of times the team gain at least 6 yards

From the question, the entry that fall in the category of at least 6 yards are:

6\ to\ 8, 9\ to\ 11 and 12\ to\ 14

Their frequencies are:

5, 2 and 1 respectively

So, the number of times is:

Times = 5 + 2 + 1

Times =8
