Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the determinant of a 3x3 matrix, you can use this method. (See picture.)
Start with the first number in the top row, and block off the row and column. A 2x2 matrix will be left. Find the determinant of this 2x2 matrix, and multiply it by the number in the top row.
Repeat for the other two numbers in the top row. Add the first result, subtract the second, and add the third.
det A = -2 [(3)(-5) − (a)(0)] − 2 [(0)(-5) − (a)(0)] + b [(0)(0) − (3)(0)]
det A = -2 (3)(-5) − 0 + 0
det A = 30
Looks like a pretty regular system, no parallel lines. In fact the second equation is a vertical line as written; not sure if that's a typo. Either way,
Answer: EXACTLY ONE SOLUTION
Let's re-read the statement and question, and then break it down.
He charges a flat fee of $38, plus $22 per hour.
A flat fee of $38 is only a one-time pay, and will never be paid for again.
This means if after two hours, we only add $38 once overall, never more.
Every hour that goes by, he earns $22 each hour.
Now that we've broken this down, we can make an equation.
Let's do 1 hour.
1(22) + 38 = 22 + 38, = 60.
For 1 hour he earns $60.
Let's do 2 hours.
2(22) + 38 = 44 + 38, = 82.
For 2 hours he earns $82.
Let's do 3 hours.
3(22) + 38 = 66 + 38, = 104.
For 3 hours he earns $104.
Let's do 4 hours.
4(22) + 38 = 88 + 38, = 126.
For 4 hours he earns $126.
This is a pattern.
Now let's do 8 hours, which is the main question, "How much does he make in 8 hours?".
8(22) + 38 = 176 + 38, = 214.
For 8 hours he earns $214.
I hope this helps!
