Answer:

W = 15/4 ft . ib

Step-by-step explanation:

Force = 10ib

According to hooked law, f(x) = kx

x = 4inches = 4/12 ft

x= 1/3ft

f(x) = 1/3k

10 = 1/3k

k = 30 ib/ft

f(x) = 30x

Workdone = integral of f(x) with its limit

6 inches = 6/12 ft

= 1/2ft

W = integral(1/2 to 0) of 30x

W = 15x^2(1/2 to 0)

W = 15(1/2)^2 - 15(0)^2

W = 15(1/4) - 0

W = 15/4 ft. Ib

Let M be the set of all nxn matrices. Define a relation on won M by A B there exists an invertible matrix P such that A = P BP S
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Recall that a relation is an <em>equivalence relation</em> if and only if is symmetric, reflexive and transitive. In order to simplify the notation we will use A↔B when A is in relation with B.

<em>Reflexive: </em>We need to prove that A↔A. Let us write J for the identity matrix and recall that J is invertible. Notice that A=J^{-1}AJ. Thus, A↔A.

<em>Symmetric</em>: We need to prove that A↔B implies B↔A. As A↔B there exists an invertible matrix P such that A=P^{-1}BP. In this equality we can perform a right multiplication by P^{-1} and obtain AP^{-1} =P^{-1}B. Then, in the obtained equality we perform a left multiplication by P and get PAP^{-1} =B. If we write Q=P^{-1} and Q^{-1} = P we have B = Q^{-1}AQ. Thus, B↔A.

<em>Transitive</em>: We need to prove that A↔B and B↔C implies A↔C. From the fact A↔B we have A=P^{-1}BP and from B↔C we have B=Q^{-1}CQ. Now, if we substitute the last equality into the first one we get

A=P^{-1}Q^{-1}CQP = (P^{-1}Q^{-1})C(QP).

Recall that if P and Q are invertible, then QP is invertible and (QP)^{-1}=P^{-1}Q^{-1}. So, if we denote R=QP we obtained that

A=R^{-1}CR. Hence, A↔C.

Therefore, the relation is an <em>equivalence relation</em>.

The correct answer is C.) (y|y > -4).

In order to find the range, we look for the possible numbers that y can be. In this case, you'll see the lowest the number goes is -4 and it continues up forever. Therefore, the answer is that y has to be greater than -4.

A pitcher holds 3 liters of lemonade. If the contents of the pitcher are equally divided among 8 people, how much lemonade will
igomit [66]

Answer:

0.375 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total amount of lemonade held by pitcher = 3 litres

Number of people in which lemonade is to be given equally = 8

Amount of Lemonade received by each person will be:

Total amount of lemonade / number of persons

3 litres / 8

= 0.375 litres

Each person receives 0.375 litres of lemonade

saw5 [17]
Make the length x+4 and the width x  and then make a formula x(x+4)=21
then u ll get x^2+4x-21=0  and then solve for x ..... the width is 3

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4,0) and (-4, -10)?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

the slope is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = y2 - y1

___________

x2 - x1

slope = (-10-0) / {-4 - (-4 ) }

slope = -10 / (-4 + 4)

slope = -10 / 0

slope = undefined

note - Any number divided by zero is undefined
