Answer:

 A     an = -3 * (1/8) ^ (n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the first term a1 = -3

And the common ratio  r = 1/8 from the an = an-1 * 1/8

The explicit formula is

an = a1 r^ (n-1)

an = -3 * (1/8) ^ (n-1)

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ = -3  ------>  first term

r ----> common ratio

a_{n}=a_{n-1}*\frac{1}{8}\\\\r=\frac{1}{8}\\\\a_{n}=a_{1}*r^{n-1}\\\\a_{n}=-3*(\frac{1}{8})^{n-1}

Use determinants to find out if the matrix is invertible.
wariber [46]

Answer:

The matrix is not invertible.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following matrix in the question:

A =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5&0&1\\-1&3&2\\0&10&6\end{array}\right]

Condition for invertible matrix:

A matrix is invertible if and only if the the determinant is non-zero.

We can find the determinant of the matrix as:

|A| = -5[(3)(6)-(2)(10)]-0[(-1)(6)-(2)(0)] + 1[(-1)(10)-(3)(0)]\\|A| = -5(18-20)+(-10)\\|A| = 10-10\\|A| = 0

Since the determinant of the given matrix is zero, the given matrix is not invertible.

NAFTA as an organization is  very important for the three North American economies, the USA, Canada, and Mexico. It is basically a regional trade organization which has lifted the borders when it comes to trade, thus enabling free movement of goods between these three nations. This has resulted in rise of the economies of all three nations, as there were no trade barriers between them anymore. The companies where able to move their facilities and to operate in each of these countries, which brought them larger profits. The Canadian and the US economies became almost like one, as the companies managed to operate in both places, and to become major players in the market, this especially goes for the US companies that made Canada their home terrain.
