well, about A and D, I just plugged the values on the slope formula of

\bf \begin{array}{llll} g(x)=x^3-4x+1\\ L(x) = 8(x-2)+1 \end{array} \qquad \begin{cases} x_1=1.9\\ x_2=2.1 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

for A the values are 8.01 and 8.0, so indeed those "slopes" are close. \textit{\huge \checkmark}

for D the values are -2.25 and 8.0, so no dice on that one.

for B, let's check the y-intercept for g(x), by setting x = 0, we end up g(0) = 0³-4(0)+1, which gives us g(0) = 1.

checking L(x) y-intercept, well, L(x) is in slope-intercept form, thus the +1 sticking out on the far right is the y-intercept, so, dice. \textit{\huge \checkmark}

for C, well, the slope if L(x) is 8, since it's in slope-intercept form, the derivative of g(x) is g'(x) = 3x² - 4, and thus g'(0) = -4, so no dice.

for E, do they intercept at (2,1)?  well, come on now, L(x) is a tangent line to g(x), so that's a must for a tangent. \textit{\huge \checkmark}

for F, we know the slope of the line L(x) is 8, is g'(2) = 8?  let's check

recall that g'(x) = 3x² - 4, so g'(2) = 3(2)² - 4, meaning g'(2) = 8, so, dice. \textit{\huge \checkmark}

A trucking company uses matrix A , shown below, to represent the driving time in hours for 6 trucking routes. A = [ 4 6 8 ]
zepelin [54]

Each element of the matrix are multiplied by the scalar to form a matrix of

same size as the original matrix in matrix scalar multiplication.

  • 60 \cdot A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}240\4&360&480\\360&480&600\end{array}\right]

Reasons:

The matrix <em>A</em> is presented as follows;

A = {\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&6&8\\6&8&10\end{array}\right]}

Using the multiplication of a matrix and a scalar, we have;

60 \cdot A = 60 \cdot  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&6&8\\6&8&10\end{array}\right] =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}60 \times 4&60 \times 6&60 \times 8\\60 \times 6&60 \times 8&60 \times 10\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\mathbf{240}&\mathbf{360}&\mathbf{480}\\\mathbf{360}&\mathbf{480}&\mathbf{600}\end{array}\right]

Therefore;

60 \cdot A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}240\4&360&480\\360&480&600\end{array}\right]
