Questions 23-26 I need help with
2 answers:
Answer:
23. b
24. c
25. b
26. c
Step-by-step explanation:
23. In problem 21, you found the coefficient matrix to be ...
Its determinant is ...
(2)(2)(3) +(-3)(-4)(-3) +(1)(1)(-2) -(-3)(2)(1) -(-2)(-4)(2) -(3)(1)(-3)
= 12 -36 -2 +6 -16 +9 = -27 . . . . choice b
__
24. Looking at the equation involving x11 terms, we have ...
-3x +7 = 10
-3x = 3 . . . . . subtract 7
x = -1 . . . . . . divide by -3 . . . . matches choices A and C
We note that choices A and C differ in their values for x22, so we consider the equation for that:
-3x -3 = -18
x + 1 = 6 . . . . . . . divide by -3
x = 5 . . . . . . . . matches choice C
__
25. Dx will be the determinant of the matrix with the constants in the first column. Choice B is the only one that matches.
__
26. The value of Dx is -78 +24 = -54. The determinant of the coefficient matrix is (5)(6) -(-3)(-4) = 30 -12 = 18. So the value of x is -54/18 = -3, which matches choice C.

Answer:
all work is shown and pictured
There are two fraction ls with different denominators.To make the denominators same multiply and divide by 8 in ( 1 ÷ 6 ) and by 6 in ( 3 ÷ 8 )
Now both they denominators are same , so we can easily add 8 and 18 ,
