Answer:

<u>1. Nora and Lila be on the same page of the book after 6 days and a half.</u>

<u>2. Nora and Lila be on the page 180.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's check the information given to resolve the question:

Current page of the novel that Nora is reading now = 128

Pages per day Nora reads = 8

Current page of the novel that Lila is reading now = 102

Pages per day Lila reads = 12

Days ahead for Nora and Lila will be on the same page = x

2. After how many days of reading will Nora and Lila be on the same page of the book?

128 + 8x = 102 + 12x

8x - 12x = 102 - 128 (Subtracting 12x and 128 at both sides)

-4x = -26

x = 6.5

<u>Nora and Lila be on the same page of the book after 6 days and a half.</u>

<u>3.</u> What page will they be on?

Nora : 128 + 8 (6.5) = 128 + 52 = 180

Lila : 102 + 12 (6.5) = 102 + 78 = 180

<u>Nora and Lila be on the page 180</u>

So what we do is we first get the x on the right side: 7x-x = 6x.

Now we get the 5 to the left side: 71-5= 66.

Now our equation is 66=6x.
We divide 66 by 6 which makes x=11

Use long division to find the quotient below.<br> (x^2 + 17x+72) - (x+8)
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(x²+17x+72)/(x+8)

-------------

(x2 + 8x + 9x + 72)= (x + 9)(x+8)

(x²+17x+72)/(x+8) =  x + 9

13. Determine whether B = {(-1, 1,-1), (1, 0, 2), (1, 1, 0)} is a basis of R3.
Sholpan [36]

Answer:  Yes, the given set of vectors is a basis of R³.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to determine whether the following set of three vectors in R³ is a basis of R³ or not :

B = {(-1, 1,-1), (1, 0, 2), (1, 1, 0)} .

For a set to be a basis of R³, the following two conditions must be fulfilled :

(i) The set should contain three vectors, equal to the dimension of R³

and

(ii) the three vectors must be linearly independent.

The first condition is already fulfilled since we have three vectors in set B.

Now, to check the independence, we will find the determinant formed by theses three vectors as rows.

If the value of the determinant is non zero, then the vectors are linearly independent.

The value of the determinant can be found as follows :

D\\\\\\=\begin{vmatrix} -1& 1 & -1\\ 1 & 0 & 2\\ 1 & 1 & 0\end{vmatrix}\\\\\\=-1(0\times0-2\times1)+1(2\times1-1\times0)-1(1\times1-0\times1)\\\\=(-1)\times(-2)+1\times2-1\times1\\\\=2+2-1\\\\=3\neq 0.

Therefore, the determinant is not equal to 0 and so the given set of vectors is linearly independent.

Thus, the given set is a basis of R³.
