Answer:

(a) Order of matrix B is 7 × 1 and order of matrix AB is 4 × 1.

(b) Order of matrix A is 5 × 5.

(c) The order of matrix B is 5 × 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two matrices is possible if and only if column of first matrix is equal to row of second matrix.

If A is an n × m matrix and B is an m × o matrix, their matrix product AB is an n × p matrix,

(a)

It is given that order of matrix A is 4 x 7.

B is a column matrix. It means the number of column in matrix B is 1.

Let the order of matrix B = n × 1

Product of matrices A and B is possible if and only if column of matrix A is equal to row of matrix B.

n=7

Order of matrix B is 7 × 1

A_{4\times 7}B_{7\times 1}=AB_{4\times 1}

Order of matrix AB is 4 × 1.

(b)

Order of matrix B = 5 × 5

It is given that A is the identity matrix.

Identity matrix is a square matrix having 1s on the main diagonal, and 0s everywhere else.

So, order of matrix A is equal to order of matrix B.

Order of matrix A = 5 × 5

Therefore order of matrix A is 5 × 5.

(c)

Order of matrix A = 4 × 5

Order of matrix AB = 4 × 7

Let Order of matrix B = n × m

A_{4\times 5}B_{n\times m}=AB_{4\times 7}

Product of A and B are possible if and only if n=5.

A_{4\times 5}B_{5\times m}=AB_{4\times 7}

AB_{4\times m}=AB_{4\times 7}

On comparing both sides, we get

m=7

Therefore the order of matrix B is 5 × 7.

Someone plz help on # 15 (idk what to do) :/
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

2x-5= -20

move -5 to the other side

sign changes from -5 to 5

2x-5+5= -20+5

2x= -15

divide by 2 for both sides

2x/2= -15/2

cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2 and 2 and then becomes x

x= -15/2

Help please will mark brainliest!!!
Daniel [21]

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, compared to 90°, it looks like it's just smaller, but not too small. It couldn't be 15° degrees, or 60°, as it was probably too much. I Don't think it's 30° either,  because it looked bigger than what a 30° angle would be.

Hope it helped!
