Solve the system by finding the reduced row-echelon form of the augmented matrix.

Mathematics

Alex3 years ago

Answer:

The reduced row-echelon form is

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 6 & -10 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 2 & -3 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end{array} \right]

The solutions to the system of equations are:

y=-2z-3,\:x=-6z-10

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system of linear equations,

x-4y-2z=2\\2x-11y-10z=13\\-x+6y+6z=-8

you must:

Step 1: Transform the augmented matrix to the reduced row echelon form.

In an augmented matrix, each row represents one equation in the system and each column represents a variable or the constant terms.

This is the augmented matrix that represents the system.

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & -4 & -2 & 2 \\\\ 2 & -11 & -10 & 13 \\\\ -1 & 6 & 6 & -8 \end{array} \right]

It can be transformed by a sequence of elementary row operations to the matrix.

There are three kinds of elementary matrix operations.

  1. Interchange two rows (or columns).
  2. Multiply each element in a row (or column) by a non-zero number.
  3. Multiply a row (or column) by a non-zero number and add the result to another row (or column).

Using elementary matrix operations, we get that

Row Operation 1: add -2 times the 1st row to the 2nd row

Row Operation 2: add 1 times the 1st row to the 3rd row

Row Operation 3: multiply the 2nd row by -1/3

Row Operation 4: add -2 times the 2nd row to the 3rd row

Row Operation 5: add 4 times the 2nd row to the 1st row

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 6 & -10 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 2 & -3 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end{array} \right]

Step 2: Interpret the reduced row echelon form

The reduced row echelon form of the augmented matrix is

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 6 & -10 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 2 & -3 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end{array} \right]

which corresponds to the system

x+6z=-10\\y+2z=-3\\0=0

The system has infinitely many solutions.

y=-2z-3,\:x=-6z-10

Which gives the correct values for points A, B, C, and D?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

<em>The correct answer is: A</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points on a Numeric Line</u>

The numeric line shown in the figure has four points A, B, C, and D. It's clear that each marked division of the line has a value of 1/4 units and all four points are below the reference zero, thus all are negative.

Point A is clearly on the -2 mark, thus

A=-2

Point B is one mark above A, thus it's located at:

B=-2+\frac{1}{4}=-\frac{7}{4}=-1\frac{3}{4}

B=-1\frac{3}{4}

Point C is one mark below -1, thus:

C=-1-\frac{1}{4}=-1\frac{1}{4}

Finally, point D is one mark below 0:

D=-\frac{1}{4}

The correct answer is: A

Finger [1]

Answer:

35 ml/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert lbs to kg

205 ÷ 2.2 = 93.18 = 93.2 kg

Calculate the minute rate

93.2 kg x 5 mcg/kg/min = 466 mcg/min

Calculate hourly rate

466 mcg/min x 60 mins/hr = 27,960 mcg/hr

Drug is expressed in mg, so convert mcg to mg

27,960 mcg = 27.96 mg
