6x + 5y = 4<br> - 6x + y = 20
Masja [62]

Answer:

x = -8/3

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you want to solve for x and y.

The best way to do this with the two formulas given is elimination. This means add the two equations together.

6x + 5y = 4

-6x + y = 20

The 6 x and -6x will cancel each other. By adding the like terms of the two together you will come out with

6y = 24

Now solve for y by dividing both sides by the 6.

y = 24/6 = 4

Now that we have y, you can plug it into one of the equations and solve for x.

Let's use -6x + y =20.

So plug in the 4 for y to get -6x + 4 = 20

Subtract the 4 from both sides then solve for y by dividing both sides by the -6.

-6x = 16

x = -16/6

You can reduce that down so that x = -8/3.

Use the following information to answer problems 14-16: Suppose that in a large metropolitan area, 82% of all households have ca
Helen [10]

Answer:

66.6% or 0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

82% or 0.82 of All households have cable TV.

X = The number of households in a group of 6, that have cable TV.

You wish to find the proportion or percentage of groups for which EXACTLY 4 of 6 households will have cable TV.

82% of 6 is = 4.92

Approximately 4.92 out of 6 households, have cable TV.

Using this figure, you can now find out what % of 6 will give you 4.

Cross multiply:

0.82 - 4.92

M - 4

M = (4×0.82) ÷ 4.92 = 3.28÷4.92 = 0.666

Hence, 66.6% of 6 households, have cable TV. In other words, exactly 4 households (X=4) have cable TV.

To test, you can find what 66% of 6 is. You will get 4.

How many times will the digit "3" appear if we write all whole numbers from 1-9999?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

4000

Step-by-step explanation:

from 1 - 1000 = 300

1's    = 100

10's  = 100

100's = 100

1000's = 0

300 * 10 = 3000

then add in all the 3000's (ie 3001,3002, etc ) that adds one more thousand

3000 + 1000 = 4000

Assume {v1, . . . , vn} is a basis of a vector space V , and T : V ------&gt; W is an isomorphism where W is another vector spac
Degger [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that w_1,\dots w_n form a basis for W, we must check that this set is a set of linearly independent vector and it generates the whole space W. We are given that T is an isomorphism. That is, T is injective and surjective. A linear transformation is injective if and only if it maps the zero of the domain vector space to the codomain's zero and that is the only vector that is mapped to 0. Also, a linear transformation is surjective if for every vector w in W there exists v in V such that T(v) =w

Recall that the set w_1,\dots w_n is linearly independent if and only if  the equation

\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n=0 implies that

\lambda_1 = \cdots = \lambda_n.

Recall that w_i = T(v_i) for i=1,...,n. Consider T^{-1} to be the inverse transformation of T. Consider the equation

\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n=0

If we apply T^{-1} to this equation, then, we get

T^{-1}(\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n) =T^{-1}(0) = 0

Since T is linear, its inverse is also linear, hence

T^{-1}(\lambda_1w_1+\dots \lambda_n w_n) = \lambda_1T^{-1}(w_1)+\dots +  \lambda_nT^{-1}(w_n)=0

which is equivalent to the equation

\lambda_1v_1+\dots +  \lambda_nv_n =0

Since v_1,\dots,v_n are linearly independt, this implies that \lambda_1=\dots \lambda_n =0, so the set \{w_1, \dots, w_n\} is linearly independent.

Now, we will prove that this set generates W. To do so, let w be a vector in W. We must prove that there exist a_1, \dots a_n such that

w = a_1w_1+\dots+a_nw_n

Since T is surjective, there exists a vector v in V such that T(v) = w. Since v_1,\dots, v_n is a basis of v, there exist a_1,\dots a_n, such that

a_1v_1+\dots a_nv_n=v

Then, applying T on both sides, we have that

T(a_1v_1+\dots a_nv_n)=a_1T(v_1)+\dots a_n T(v_n) = a_1w_1+\dots a_n w_n= T(v) =w

which proves that w_1,\dots w_n generate the whole space W. Hence, the set \{w_1, \dots, w_n\} is a basis of W.

Consider the linear transformation T:\mathbb{R}^2\to \mathbb{R}^2, given by T(x,y) = T(x,0). This transformations fails to be injective, since T(1,2) = T(1,3) = (1,0). Consider the base of \mathbb{R}^2 given by (1,0), (0,1). We have that T(1,0) = (1,0), T(0,1) = (0,0). This set is not linearly independent, and hence cannot be a base of \mathbb{R}^2
