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)\neq 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.

Simplify the expression<br><br>cot^2x - cot^2x cos^2x
andrew-mc [135]
Cot^2x - cot^2x cos^2x
= cot^2x - {(cot^2x)(cos^2x)}
= cot^2x { 1 - cos^2x }
= cot^2x { sin^2x }
= (cos^2x/sin^2x) { sin^2x }
= cos^2x

The probability that a randomly selected student is a girl is 0.52, and the probability that a student is a girl and in an art c
DaniilM [7]

Answer: The answer is 0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, everything is given, as stated in the question "the probability that a student is a girl and in an art class is 0.20."

It's given that the probability that a student is a girl is 0.52.

However, in the question, it said that it's given a student is a girl.

You have the probability that a student is a girl and in art class, so you need to find what 0.52 was multiplied by which would be the probability of someone being in art class. Knowing this you can do 0.20 / 0.52 to get 0.38.
