What factors multiply to -80 and add to 6

forsale [732]

80 = -1(80), -2(40), -4(20), -5(4),

Total answers include: -81, 79, -42, 16, -9, and 1.

None of them add up to 6!

Are you doing polynomial equations?

If so, you can solve it the hard way.

x^2 + 6x -80 = 0

(x^2 + 6x + 9) - 80 = 9

(x+3)^2 = 89

(x+3) = 9.43

x = 6.43

If you're not doing those then I'm afraid your question has no answer.

Hope that helps!

Help pls show work too :)

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

because two inner angles equals the opposite side's outer angle, we can do this

3y + 13 + 4y = 118

we combine like terms

7y + 13 = 118

subtract

7y = 105

and then divide

y = 15

then we do the equation for A's angle

4(15) = 60

Solve the following systems of equations using the matrix method: a. 3x1 + 2x2 + 4x3 = 5 2x1 + 5x2 + 3x3 = 17 7x1 + 2x2 + 2x3 =

lara [203]

Answer:

a. The solutions are

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{11}{13}\\ \frac{50}{13}\\ -\frac{17}{13}\end{pmatrix}$

b. The solutions are

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y&z\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{54}{235}\\ \frac{6}{47}\\ \frac{24}{235}\end{pmatrix}$

c. The solutions are

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3&x_4\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{22}{9}\\ \frac{164}{9}\\ \frac{139}{9}\\ -\frac{37}{3}\end{pmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a system of linear equations using matrix method, we may define a system of equations with the same number of equations as variables as:

$A\cdot X=B$

where X is the matrix representing the variables of the system, B is the matrix representing the constants, and A is the coefficient matrix.

Then the solution is this:

$X=A^{-1}B$

a. Given the system:

$3x_1 + 2x_2 + 4x_3 = 5 \\2x_1 + 5x_2 + 3x_3 = 17 \\7x_1 + 2x_2 + 2x_3 = 11$

The coefficient matrix is:

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

The variable matrix is:

$X=\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3\\\end{array}\right]$

The constant matrix is:

$B=\left[\begin{array}{c}5&17&11\\\end{array}\right]$

First, we need to find the inverse of the A matrix. To find the inverse matrix, augment it with the identity matrix and perform row operations trying to make the identity matrix to the left. Then to the right will be inverse matrix.

So, augment the matrix with identity matrix:

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}3&2&4&1&0&0 \\\\ 2&5&3&0&1&0 \\\\ 7&2&2&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

This matrix can be transformed by a sequence of elementary row operations to the matrix

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&0&- \frac{2}{39}&- \frac{2}{39}&\frac{7}{39} \\\\ 0&1&0&- \frac{17}{78}&\frac{11}{39}&\frac{1}{78} \\\\ 0&0&1&\frac{31}{78}&- \frac{4}{39}&- \frac{11}{78}\end{array}\right]$

And the inverse of the A matrix is

$A^{-1}=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} - \frac{2}{39} & - \frac{2}{39} & \frac{7}{39} \\\\ - \frac{17}{78} & \frac{11}{39} & \frac{1}{78} \\\\ \frac{31}{78} & - \frac{4}{39} & - \frac{11}{78} \end{array} \right]$

Next, multiply $A^ {-1}$ by $B$

$X=A^{-1}\cdot B$

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3\\\end{array}\right]=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} - \frac{2}{39} & - \frac{2}{39} & \frac{7}{39} \\\\ - \frac{17}{78} & \frac{11}{39} & \frac{1}{78} \\\\ \frac{31}{78} & - \frac{4}{39} & - \frac{11}{78} \end{array} \right] \cdot \left[\begin{array}{c}5&17&11\end{array}\right]$

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}-\frac{2}{39}&-\frac{2}{39}&\frac{7}{39}\\ -\frac{17}{78}&\frac{11}{39}&\frac{1}{78}\\ \frac{31}{78}&-\frac{4}{39}&-\frac{11}{78}\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}5\\ 17\\ 11\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{11}{13}\\ \frac{50}{13}\\ -\frac{17}{13}\end{pmatrix}$

The solutions are

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{11}{13}\\ \frac{50}{13}\\ -\frac{17}{13}\end{pmatrix}$

b. To solve this system of equations

$x -y - z = 0 \\30x + 40y = 12 \\30x + 50z = 12$

The coefficient matrix is:

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-1&-1\\30&40&0\\30&0&50\end{array}\right]$

The variable matrix is:

$X=\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y&z\\\end{array}\right]$

The constant matrix is:

$B=\left[\begin{array}{c}0&12&12\\\end{array}\right]$

The inverse of the A matrix is

$A^{-1}=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} \frac{20}{47} & \frac{1}{94} & \frac{2}{235} \\\\ - \frac{15}{47} & \frac{4}{235} & - \frac{3}{470} \\\\ - \frac{12}{47} & - \frac{3}{470} & \frac{7}{470} \end{array} \right]$

The solutions are

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y&z\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{54}{235}\\ \frac{6}{47}\\ \frac{24}{235}\end{pmatrix}$

c. To solve this system of equations

$4x_1 + 2x_2 + x_3 + 5x_4 = 0 \\3x_1 + x_2 + 4x_3 + 7x_4 = 1\\ 2x_1 + 3x_2 + x_3 + 6x_4 = 1 \\3x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + 3x_4 = 4\\$

The coefficient matrix is:

$A=\left[\begin{array}{cccc}4&2&1&5\\3&1&4&7\\2&3&1&6\\3&1&1&3\end{array}\right]$

The variable matrix is:

$X=\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3&x_4\\\end{array}\right]$

The constant matrix is:

$B=\left[\begin{array}{c}0&1&1&4\\\end{array}\right]$

The inverse of the A matrix is

$A^{-1}=\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} - \frac{1}{9} & - \frac{1}{9} & - \frac{1}{9} & \frac{2}{3} \\\\ - \frac{32}{9} & - \frac{5}{9} & \frac{13}{9} & \frac{13}{3} \\\\ - \frac{28}{9} & - \frac{1}{9} & \frac{8}{9} & \frac{11}{3} \\\\ \frac{7}{3} & \frac{1}{3} & - \frac{2}{3} & -3 \end{array} \right]$

The solutions are

$\left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3&x_4\\\end{array}\right]=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{22}{9}\\ \frac{164}{9}\\ \frac{139}{9}\\ -\frac{37}{3}\end{pmatrix}$
