Order pair of x=y+2 and 2y=x-1

1 answer:

5 0

x=y+2
2y=x-1
substitute x=y+2 into 2y=x-1

2y=x-1
2y=y+2 -1
2y - y = 1
y = 1

x=y+2
x=1+2
x=3

answer
x = 3 and y = 1

If u, v, and w are nonzero vectors in r 2 , is w a linear combination of u and v?

Tju [1.3M]

Not necessarily. $\mathbf u$ and $\mathbf v$ may be linearly dependent, so that their span forms a subspace of $\mathbb R^2$ that does not contain every vector in $\mathbb R^2$ .

For example, we could have $\mathbf u=(0,1)$ and $\mathbf v=(0,-1)$ . Any vector $\mathbf w$ of the form $(r,0)$ , where $r\neq0$ , is impossible to obtain as a linear combination of these $\mathbf u$ and $\mathbf v$ , since

$c_1\mathbf u+c_2\mathbf v=(0,c_1)+(0,-c_2)=(0,c_1-c_2)\neq(r,0)$

unless $r=0$ and $c_1=c_2$ .

Three people divide up a large pizza. If the first person gets half and the second person gets half as much as the first person

Eduardwww [97]

So, if the first person takes half of the pizza, half of the pizza is left.
If the second person takes half of the amount the first person took, that would be a quarter of the pizza left.

TL;DR - There is 1/4 of the pizza left

Which correlation coefficient indicated the strongest linear relationship between the variables?

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

-0.87 has the strongest linear relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.87, since it is the closest value to either one or negative one,

0.8 is the second strongest

0.65 is the third strongest
