Answer:

a. The plane's speed in mph is 560

b. At this rate, the plane can travel 5,600 miles in 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the planes speed in mph, some simple arithmetic must be done and you should divide 3,360 by 6. Now that you have determined that 3,360/6 equals 560, you know that in order to figure out how many miles the plane can travel in 10 hours, all you must do is multiply 560 by 10 which equals 5,600.

The 3 × 3 matrix P satisfies the matrix equation P^2 = P.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: The answers are given below.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a 3 × 3 matrix P satisfies the matrix equation P² = P.

We are to

(a) find the possibilities for the determinant of P.

(b) explain the reason behind there are no other possibilities.

(c) give an example of P, for each possible determinant.

(a) According to the given information, we have

$P^2=P\\\\\Rightarrow P^2-P=0\\\\\Rightarrow P(P-I)=0\\\\\Rightarrow P=0,~~~P=I.$

So, P can be either a zero matrix of order 3 or an identity matrix of order 3.

If P = 0, then det(P) = 0 and if P = I, then det(P) = 1.

Therefore the possible determinants of P are 0 and 1.

(b) There can be any other determinant other than 0 and 1, because if so, then the given equation P² = P will not be satisfied.

(c) If |P| = 0, then the matrix P can be can be of the form as follows:

$P=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&0\\0&0&0\\0&0&0\end{array}\right] .$

If |P| = 1, the the matrix P can be of the form as follows :

$P=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] .$

Thus, all the parts are answered.

An even amount each
EXAMLEE;there are 4 potatoes and 2 people they want to split it evenly so 4potatoes/2people
4 divided by 2
they both get 2 potatoes.

Given that f(a+b)= f(a) + f(b) and f(x) is always positive, what os the value of f(0)?

FrozenT [24]

This is a strange question, and f(x) may not even exist. Why do I say that? Well..

[1] We know that f(a+b) = f(a) + f(b). Therefore, f(0+0) = f(0) + f(0). In other words, f(0) = f(0) + f(0). Subtracting, we see, f(0) - f(0) = f(0) or 0 = f(0).

[2] So, what's the problem? We found the answer, f(0) = 0, right? Maybe, but the second rule says that f(x) is always positive. However, f(0) = 0 is not positive!

Since there is a contradiction, we must either conclude that the single value f(0) does not exist, or that the entire function f(x) does not exist.

To fix this, we could instead say that "f(x) is always nonnegative" and then we would be safe.
