Divide. Write your answer in simplest form. 6/7 ÷ 5/21

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is 8/5.
To divide fractions, flip the second fraction and multiply.
For example,
= 6/7 • 21/5
= 126/35
Simplify by dividing both sides by 7 to get your answer.
= 8/5

Find the amount of tax and the tax rate. Round to two decimal places

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The tax amount is 15.17$

The tax rate is 12.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we subtract the cost from the selling price.

137.17 - 122 = 15.17

We have found the tax amount, now for the tax rate.

If tax rate is x, then

122 * x = 137.17

Divide both sides by 122 to get

x = 137.17/122 = 1.124, or .124.

Then convert into percentage by moving the decimal to the right 2 times.

.124 = 12.4%

Hope this helps you

Use mathematical induction to prove that if L is a linear transformation from V to W, then L (α1v1 + α2v2 +· · ·+αnvn)= α1L (v1)

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The proof is shown in the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysis:

The proof by induction focuses on n. In this case, let n = 1, and $L^{1}$ will be a linear operator since $L^{1} = L$

The exercise will show that $L^{n}$ is a linear operator on V and that $L^{n+1}$ is also a linear operator on V. This, follows that:

$L^{n+1} (av) = L(L^{m}(v_{1}+v_{2})\\ = L(L^{m} (v_{1} + L^{m}v_{2})\\ = L(L^{m}v_{1} + L(L^{m}v_{2})\\ = L^{m+1}(v_{1}) + L^{m+1}(v_{2})$

2. Solve the system of equations. Write your answer in parametric vector notation. X, +5x2 + 4x3 + 3x4 +9xs = 18 2x, +6x2 + 4x3

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The system is inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system is

$x_1+5x_2+4x_3+3x_4+9x_5=18\\2x_1+6x_2+4x_3+6x_4+6x_5=28\\3x_1+7x_2+4x_3+10x_4+x_5=41\\4x_1+6x_2+2x_3+7x_4+4x_5=29$

The associated matrix to the system is

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\2&6&4&6&6&28\\3&7&4&10&1&41\\4&6&2&7&4&29\end{array}\right]$

Now we use row operations to find the echelon form of the matrix:

1. We substract to row 2, two times the row 1.

We substract to row 3, three times the row 1.

We substract to row 4, four times the row 1 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&-4&-4&0&-12&-8\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]$

2. We multiply the second row of the preview step by -1/4. We obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]$

We add to row 3, eight times the row 2.

We add to row 4, fourtheen times the row 2 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&-5&10&-155\end{array}\right]$

4. We add to row 4 of the preview step, five times the row 3 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&0&0&-140\end{array}\right]$

Using backward substitution we have that

$0x_5=-140$ , then $0=-140$ and this is absurd. Then The system is inconsistent.
