Why might you want to use the commutative property to change the order of the integers in the following sum before adding

1 answer:

4 0

Commutative Property is the property in which you can move around numbers in numerical operations like, addition and multiplication while retaining their result. In contrast to subtraction and division in which position is an important factor for every result, here it is regardless. Why might you want to use this property?Well, most importantly it suits the operation of addition and hence, to ensure the arrangement of the number is in symmetric proportion to its counterpart such as 3 + 2=2 + 3. Or rather, understanding that the equations in both sides are but the same and equal in sum. Thus, this is much more usable or will make more sense if used in a larger scale of complex equations and integers.

Evaluate the piecewise-defined function for the indicated values. I’m just unsure of how to solve when the value isn’t given dir

Fantom [35]

The value of the function at t=0 is 9 , 6<x<7 is -t+5, 1<n<2 is 9, for $m^{2} +1$ is 9.

Given function which is 9 for 0 to 5 , -t+5 for 5 to 8 and $\sqrt{t-1}$ for 8<t<11.

A) We have to find the function at t=0 which is 9 because it lies between 0<=t<5.

B) In this we have to find the value of the function when x=t lies between 6 and 7. is -t+5.

C) In this we have to find the value of Q(n) when n lies between 1 and 2 and the value becomes 9 because it lies between 0 and 5.

D) In this we have to find the function at $m^{2} +1$ when m belongs to $\sqrt{7} and \sqrt{10}$ the value of m lies between 2 and 4 and the value of m square +1 lies between 3 and 5. Hence the value of function at m square plus one is 9.

Use the formula for simple interest to find the interest rate if a deposit of $1400 earned $490 of interest after 5 years,

mario62 [17]

Given the simple interest formula:

I = P•R•T

where:
I = interest
P = principal
R = interest rate
T = time (in years)

We can isolate R algebraically to find out the interest rate:

I = P•R•T

Divide both sides by P•T:

I / (P•T) = (P•R•T)/(P•T)

The formula for the interest rate is:
R = I / (P•T)

Substitute the given values into this formula to solve for the interest rate (R):

R = I / (P•T)

R = $490/ ($1,400 • 5 years)
R = $490 / $7,000
R = 0.07 or 7%

Therefore, the interest rate is 7%.

Verify that the points are the vertices of a parallelogram and find its area. (2,-1,1), (5, 1,4), (0,1,1), (3,3,4)

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Area = 13.15 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the given vertices be represented as follows:

A(2, -1, 1) = 2i - j + k

B(5, 1, 4) = 5i + j + 4k

C(0, 1, 1) = 0i + j + k

D(3, 3, 4) = 3i + 3j + 4k

(i) Let's calculate the vectors of all the sides:

$\\$ AB = B - A = (5i + j + 4k) - (2i - j + k)

AB = 5i + j + 4k - 2i + j - k [Collect like terms]

AB = 3i + 2j + 3k

BC = C - B = (0i + j + k) - (5i + j + 4k)

BC = 0i + j + k - 5i - j - 4k [Collect like terms]

BC = -5i + 0j - 3k

CD = D - C = (3i + 3j + 4k) - (0i + j + k)

CD = 3i + 3j + 4k - 0i - j - k [Collect like terms]

CD = 3i + 2j + 3k

DA = A - D = (2i - j + k) - (3i + 3j + 4k)

DA = 2i - j + k - 3i - 3j - 4k [Collect like terms]

DA = -i - 4j - 3k

AC = C - A = (0i + j + k) - (2i - j + k)

AC = 0i + j + k - 2i + j - k [Collect like terms]

AC = -2i + 2j

BD = D - B = (3i + 3j + 4k) - (5i + j + 4k)

BD = 3i + 3j + 4k - 5i - j - 4k [Collect like terms]

BD = -2i + 2j

(ii) From the results in (i) above, we can deduce that;

AB = CD This implies that AB || CD [AB is parallel to CD]

AC = BD This implies that AC || BD [AC is parallel to BD]

(iii) Therefore, ABDC is a parallelogram since opposite sides (AB and CD) are parallel. Hence, the points are vertices of a parallelogram

Now let's calculate the area

To find the area of the parallelogram, we find the magnitude of the cross product of any two adjacent sides.

In this case, we'll choose AB and AC

Area = |AB X AC|

Where;

$AB X AC = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\3&2&3\\-2&2&0\end{array}\right]$

AB X AC = i(0 - 6) - j(0 + 6) + k(6 + 4)

AB X AC = - 6i - 6j + 10k

|AB X AC| = $\sqrt{(-6)^2 + (-6)^2 + (10)^2}$

|AB X AC| = $\sqrt{172}$

|AB X AC| = 13.15

Area = 13.15 square units.

PS: ACBD is also a parallelogram. The diagram has also been attached to this response.
