A grasshopper sits on the first square of a 1×N board. He can jump over one or two squares and land on the next square. The gras

shopper can jump forward or back but he must stay on the board. Find the least number n such that for any N ≥ n the grasshopper can land on each square exactly once. 100 PTS PLS HELP. Can someone answer this genuinely and not just take the points?!!? Thank you

Answer:

n=N-1

Answer:

n=N-1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by imagining this scenario on a small scale, say 5 squares.

Assuming it starts on the first square, the grasshopper can cover the full 5 squares in 2 ways; either it can jump one square at a time, or it can jump all the way to the end and then backtrack. If it jumps one square at a time, it will take 4 hops to cover all 5 squares. If it jumps two squares at a time and then backtracks, it will take 2 jumps to cover the full 5 squares and then 2 to cover the 2 it missed, which is also 4. It will always be one less than the total amount of squares, since it begins on the first square and must touch the rest exactly once. Therefore, the smallest amount n is N-1. Hope this helps!

Make y the subject of these equations.<br> by² = d<br> Jay = 6<br> ay - cy = d.<br> cy - b) = y
allsm [11]

Answer:

See all the answers  below.

Step-by-step explanation:

by² = d

Jay = 6

ay - cy = d.

cy - b) = y

Option A

by² = d

divide both side by b

y² = d/b

square both sides

y=√d/b

Option B

Jay = 6

Divide both sides by Ja

y= 6/Ja

Option C

ay - cy = d

y(a-c)=d

divide both sides by (a-c)

y= d/(a-c)

Option D

(cy - b) = y

y-cy=-b

y(1-c)=-b

y= -b/(1-c)

skew-symmetric 3 x 3 matrices form as subspace of all 3 x 3 matrices and find a basis for this subspace.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a) ∝A ∈ W

so by subspace, W is subspace of 3 × 3 matrix

b) therefore Basis of W is

={ {\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1&0\\-1&0&0\\0&0&0\end{array}\right] ,\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\0&0&0\\-1&0&0\end{array}\right] ,\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&0\\0&0&1\\0&-1&0\end{array}\right]}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

W = { A| Air Skew symmetric matrix}

= {A | A = -A^T }

A ; O⁻ = -O⁻^T        O⁻ : Zero mstrix

O⁻ ∈ W

now let A, B ∈ W

A = -A^T       B = -B^T

(A+B)^T = A^T + B^T

= -A - B

- ( A + B )

⇒ A + B = -( A + B)^T

∴ A + B ∈ W.

∝ ∈ | R

(∝.A)^T = ∝A^T

= ∝( -A)

= -( ∝A)

(∝A) = -( ∝A)^T

∴ ∝A ∈ W

so by subspace, W is subspace of 3 × 3 matrix

A ∈ W

A = -AT

A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}o&a&b\\-a&o&c\\-b&-c&0\end{array}\right]

= a\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1&0\\-1&0&0\\0&0&0\end{array}\right] +b\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\0&0&0\\-1&0&0\end{array}\right] +c\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&0\\0&0&1\\0&-1&0\end{array}\right]

therefore Basis of W is

={ {\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1&0\\-1&0&0\\0&0&0\end{array}\right] ,\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\0&0&0\\-1&0&0\end{array}\right] ,\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&0\\0&0&1\\0&-1&0\end{array}\right]}

The table below shows some inputs and outputs of the invertible function f with domain all real numbers.
Neko [114]

The value of f⁻¹(f(58)) is 58 and the value of the function f(f(5)) is 11

<h3>How to solve the function values?</h3>

As a general rule, we have:

f⁻¹(f(x)) = x

Substitute 58 for x

So, we have:

f⁻¹(f(58)) = 58

Hence, the value of f⁻¹(f(58)) is 58

Also, we have:

f(f(5))

From the table, we have:

f(5) = 9

So, we have:

f(f(5)) = f(9)

From the table, we have:

f(9) = 11

So, we have:

f(f(5)) = 11

Hence, the value of the function f(f(5)) is 11

the sale price of an iphone is 179.00. if the percent discount was 20% what was the original price of the iphone?
Tju [1.3M]
100 - 20 = 80
179.00 = 80%
179.00 / 80 = 2.2375 = 1%
1% x 100 = 100%
So, 2.2375 x 100 = 100%
Therefore the original price was 223.75
