Question 1 (5 points): Consider the system of linear equations x1 − 4x2 − x4 = −7 x2 − 2x4 = 3 x4 + 2x5 = 3 (a) Write down the c

oefficient matrix of this system. (b) Write down the augmented matrix of this system. (c) Use row operations to put the augmented matrix into reduced echelon form. Make it clear which row operations you are using. (d) Is the system consistent or inconsistent? Explain your answer.

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

A hovercraft takes off from a platform it’s height (in meters), x seconds after takeoff, is modeled by
yulyashka [42]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  81 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x is seconds after takeoff, the value of x at takeoff is 0. You are being asked to find H(0).

  H(0) = -3(0 -3)^2 +108 = -3(9) +108 = 81

The height of the hovercraft at the time of takeoff is 81 meters.
