Answer:

b)

Step-by-step explanation:

A is invertible if and only if det(A)≠0. Let's compute the determinant of A and find the values k for which it is nonzero.

Using Sarrus's rule, we obtain that

\det A=0(k)(4)+1(-6)(2)+k(2)(7)-2(k)(k)-7(-6)(0)-4(2)(1)=-12+14k-2k^2-8=-2k^2+14k-20=-2(k^2-7k+10)=2(k-5)(k-2)

Note that the determinant is a quadratic equation on k, which can be factored as above.

Now the determinant is only zero if k=5 or k=2 (the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial). Therefore, if k≠2,5 the determinant is nonzero so A is invertible.

Answer:

All real k except 2 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a matrix to be invertible the determinant of it should not be equal to zero.

A matrix P is invertible if |P| ≠ 0

The matrix given here is:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1&k\\2&k&-6\\2&7&4\end{array}\right]

For the above matrix to be invertible:

0\times(4k+42)-1\times(8+12)+k\times(14-2k)\neq 0\\-20+14k-2k^{2}\neq 0\\k^{2}-7k+10\neq  0\\(k-2)(k-5)\neq 0\\k\neq 2,k\neq 5

Matrix is invertible for all real k except 2 and 5.

The first AMC 8 was given in 1985 and it has been given annually since that time. Samantha turned 12 years old the year that she
Lorico [155]
I would start like this: which year was the seventh AMC 8??

the first was in 1985
The second: 1986
3: 1987
4: 1988
5: 1989
6: 1990
7: 1991

so seventh AMC 8 took place in 1991.
she was then 12, so we can subtract this age from 1991:

1991-12=1979

so she was born in 1979!

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 5x+17 and 3y-4,respectively.
Troyanec [42]

Complete question :

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 5x + 11 items and 2x - 3 items, respectively, where x represents a minimum quantity. The first plant produces how many more items daily than the second plant?

Answer:

3x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Production level of plant 1 = 5x + 11

Production level of plant 2 = 2x - 3

The first plant produces how many more items daily than the second plant :

Plant 1 production - plant 2 production

(5x + 11) - (2x - 3)

Open the bracket :

5x + 11 - 2x + 3

5x - 2x + 11 + 3

3x + 14

Daily production of plant 1 exceeds that of plant 2 by 3x + 14

What is the difference between an equation with a variable and an inequality with a variable?
NeX [460]

Answer:

An equation is a statement that maintains the equal value of two mathematical expressions. If the statement is true for all variable values, it is called an identity. ... An equation shows the equality of two variables while an inequality shows the inequality of two variables

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

v=pi.r^2.h

1728=3.14*22r^2

1728/69.08=r^2

r^2=25.0144

r=5
