Answer:

d) Not necessarily

e) True

f)

i)  AB is non singular

ii) AB is singular

iii)  AB is singular

g) Not necessarily

Step-by-step explanation:

d) Not neccesarily, if we take

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&1\\1&2\end{array}\right] \\B = \left[\begin{array}{cc}0&2\\2&0\end{array}\right]

Then, both are symmetric, but

AB = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2\\4&2\end{array}\right]

Is not, because (AB)₁₂ = 2 and (AB)₂₁ = 4.

e) This is True. In the ith row and the jth column, since A and B are symmetric, we have (A+B){_i}{_j} = A_i_j + B_i_j = A_j_i + B_j_i = (A+B)_j_i . Therefore, A+B is symmetric.

f) Recall that a matrix C is non singular if and only if Det(C) = 0. Also, det(AB) = Det(A)*Det(B), therefore, if one of them is singular, then there would be a 0 in the product, and as a consequence, AB would have determinant 0, from which we can conclude that AB is singular. On the other hand, if Det(A) and Det(B) are both different from 0, then Det(AB) ≠ 0, so we can conclude that, if both A and B are non singular, then AB also is not singular. As a consequence,

i)  AB is non singular

ii) AB is singular

iii)  AB is singular

g) False, if

A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] \\B = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&0&0\\0&-1&0\\0&0&-1\end{array}\right]

Then neither A nor B are singular, however the sum is the null matrix, therefore it is singular in spite of being a sum of 2 non singular matrix.

Find the solution of the system of equations.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the Number

To find the number, we have to translate the problem above to an algebraic equation. The algebraic equation refers to the statement of the equality of two algebraic expressions.

Equation:

Let "x" be the number.

4 is divided by a number - 4/x

3 divided by the number decreased by 2 - 3/x-2

"4 is divided by a number is equal to 3 divided by the number decreased by 2"

4/x = 3/x-2

Solution:

Cross multiply.

4/x = 3/x-2

x(3) = 4(x-2)

3x = 4x - 8

(Combine similar terms.)

3x - 4x = - 8

- x = - 8

- x/- 1 = - 8/- 1

x = 8

Final Answer:

8

Checking:

4/x = 3/x-2

4/8 = 3/8-2

1/2 = 3/6

1/2 = 1/2 ✔

The product of five and a number, increased by 9 is equal to fifteen less than three times then
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

The product of 5 and x increased by 9 is equal to 15 less than 3 times x.

5x + 9 = 3x - 15.

We can isolate x, getting (5-3)x = -15-9

Then we can solve:

2x = -24

x = -12.
