Answer:

The mistake is the sing of the "3" on the second term.

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The mistake was changing the sing of the second term in the first step. You could found it highlighted below.

4a-5=2a-3

4a-2a-5=3  ( the correct expression will be 4a-2a-5=-3)

2a-5=3

2a=8

So ,  the correct answer is

4a-2a-5=-3

2a=5-3

2a=2

a=1

He changed the sign of the 3 on the second row sot its 4a-2a-5=(-3)
2a-5=-3
2a=2
a=1

I need help on #4 & #6
Elan Coil [88]
So for 4, first thing you need is slope. Choose 2 points. I am choosing (8,2) and (6,3) So, then its the second y term subtracted by the first y term over(Or divided by) the second x term subtracted by the first x term.
3-2/6-8 or 1/-2 or -.5 (negative 0.5)
Now, time to find the yintercept(yint). So, choose one of the points, Im choosing (8,2), and put it into slope intercept, but leave yint as b.
(2)=-.5(8)+b
simplify
2= -4+b
subtract -4
b=6
So, your answer is y= -0.5x+6

A coffee pot holds <br> 5 1/2<br> quarts of coffee. How much is this in cups?
Alenkasestr [34]
Hey! 

To find out how much it is in cups, we must know how many cups 1 quart is equal to. 

1 quart = 4 cups.

5 1/2 (or 5.5) quarts = 22 cups.

Let y = (2 6) and u = (7 1). Write y as the sum of a vector in Span(u) and a vector orthogonal to .
Minchanka [31]

The question is missing. Here is the complete question.

Let y = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\6\end{array}\right] and u = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7\\1\end{array}\right]. Write y as the sum of a vector in Span(u) and a vector orthogonal to u.

Answer: y = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{21}{10} \\ \frac{3}{10} \end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{-1}{10}\\ \frac{57}{10} \end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation: The sum of vectors is given by

y =  y_{1} + z

where  y_{1} is in Span(u);

vector z is orthogonal to it;

First you have to compute the orthogonal projection y_{1} of y:

y_{1} = proj y = \frac{y.u}{u.u}.u

Calculating orthogonal projection:

\left[\begin{array}{c}2\\6\end{array}\right].\left[\begin{array}{c}7\\1\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}9\\6\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{c}7\\1\end{array}\right].\left[\begin{array}{c}7\\1\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}49\\1\end{array}\right]

y_{1} = \frac{9+6}{49+1}.u

y_{1} = \frac{15}{50}.u

y_{1} = \frac{3}{10}.u

y_{1} = \frac{3}{10}.\left[\begin{array}{c}7\\1\end{array}\right]

y_{1} = \left[\begin{array}{c}\frac{21}{10} \\\frac{3}{10} \end{array}\right]

Calculating vector z:

z = y - y_{1}

z = \left[\begin{array}{c}2\\6\end{array}\right] - \left[\begin{array}{c}\frac{21}{10} \\\frac{3}{10} \end{array}\right]

z = \left[\begin{array}{c}\frac{-1}{10} \\\frac{57}{10} \end{array}\right]

Writing y as the sum:

y = \left[\begin{array}{c}\frac{21}{10} \\\frac{3}{10} \end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{c}\frac{-1}{10} \\\frac{57}{10} \end{array}\right]
