Let A be a 5 × 4 matrix with a pivot in each column. Is A invertible? Why or why not?
1 answer:
Answer:
Matrix A is not invertible.
Step-by-step explanation:
Invertible matrix are those matrix which are square matrix or non singular matrix.
For any matrix to be invertible, matrix should be non singular i.e. det(x) 0.
But for the question given above we cannot find determinant of matrix A as it is not square matrix. so inverse of given matrix does not exist. so it is not possible to have non trival solutions.

Answer:
x=108
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
m∠RQS≅m∠QLK -----> by corresponding angles
m∠KLM+m∠QLK=180° -----> by supplementary angles (consecutive interior angles)
we have that
m∠RQS=x° ----> given problem
so
m∠QLX=x°
m∠KLM=(x-36)° ----> given problem
substitute
