Answer:

i) The augmented matrix for this system is

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}4&-2&-7&4\\2&12&3&-5\\-1&6&2&15\end{array}\right]

ii) The reduced row echelon form

\text{rref}(A)=\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & - \frac{692}{65} \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & \frac{423}{130} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & - \frac{493}{65} \end{array} \right]

iii) The set of solutions are

x_1 = -692/65

x_2 = 423/130

x_3 = -493/65

Step-by-step explanation:

i) An augmented matrix for a system of equations is a matrix of numbers in which each row represents the constants from one equation (both the coefficients and the constant on the other side of the equal sign) and each column represents all the coefficients for a single variable.

We have the following system of equations:

4x_1 -2x_2 - 7x_3 = 4 \\2x_1 + 12x_2 + 3x_3 = -5\\ -x_1 + 6x_2 + 2x_3 = 15

Here is the augmented matrix for this system.

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}4&-2&-7&4\\2&12&3&-5\\-1&6&2&15\end{array}\right]

ii) To find the reduced row echelon form of

A=\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 4 & -2 & -7 & 4 \\\\ 2 & 12 & 3 & -5 \\\\ -1 & 6 & 2 & 15 \end{array} \right]

you must:

  • Divide row 1 by 4 \left(R_1=\frac{R_1}{4}\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & - \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{4} & 1 \\\\ 2 & 12 & 3 & -5 \\\\ -1 & 6 & 2 & 15 \end{array} \right]

  • Subtract row 1 multiplied by 2 from row 2 \left(R_2=R_2-\left(2\right)R_1\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & - \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{4} & 1 \\\\ 0 & 13 & \frac{13}{2} & -7 \\\\ -1 & 6 & 2 & 15 \end{array} \right]

  • Add row 1 to row 3 \left(R_3=R_3+R_1\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & - \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{4} & 1 \\\\ 0 & 13 & \frac{13}{2} & -7 \\\\ 0 & \frac{11}{2} & \frac{1}{4} & 16 \end{array} \right]

  • Divide row 2 by 13 \left(R_2=\frac{R_2}{13}\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & - \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{4} & 1 \\\\ 0 & 1 & \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{13} \\\\ 0 & \frac{11}{2} & \frac{1}{4} & 16 \end{array} \right]

  • Add row 2 multiplied by 1/2 to row 1 \left(R_1=R_1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)R_2\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & - \frac{3}{2} & \frac{19}{26} \\\\ 0 & 1 & \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{13} \\\\ 0 & \frac{11}{2} & \frac{1}{4} & 16 \end{array} \right]

  • Subtract row 2 multiplied by 11/2 from row 3

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & - \frac{3}{2} & \frac{19}{26} \\\\ 0 & 1 & \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{13} \\\\ 0 & 0 & - \frac{5}{2} & \frac{493}{26} \end{array} \right]

  • Multiply row 3 by −2/5 \left(R_3=\left(- \frac{2}{5}\right)R_3\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & - \frac{3}{2} & \frac{19}{26} \\\\ 0 & 1 & \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{13} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & - \frac{493}{65} \end{array} \right]

  • Add row 3 multiplied by 3/2 to row 1 \left(R_1=R_1+\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)R_3\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & - \frac{692}{65} \\\\ 0 & 1 & \frac{1}{2} & - \frac{7}{13} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & - \frac{493}{65} \end{array} \right]

  • Subtract row 3 multiplied by 1/2 from row 2 \left(R_2=R_2-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)R_3\right)

\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & - \frac{692}{65} \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & \frac{423}{130} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & - \frac{493}{65} \end{array} \right]

The answer is

\text{rref}(A)=\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & - \frac{692}{65} \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & \frac{423}{130} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & - \frac{493}{65} \end{array} \right]

iii) The set of solutions are

x_1 = -692/65

x_2 = 423/130

x_3 = -493/65

The sum of the interior angles of Michael’s polygon equals 180°. The sum of the interior angles of Cary’s polygon equals 360°. H
Lady_Fox [76]
Recall that for a polygon to have 180° as the sum of its interior angles, then it must have three sides and thus a triangle. And similarly, for a polygon to have a sum of 360°, it must have four sides or it is a quadrilateral.

[Note that for larger angles, we can apply the formula 180(n - 2) to find the total sum of the interior angles. n is the number of sides]

Now, since we're comparing a four-sided and three-sided polygon, this means that they only differ by 1 side. 

Answer: A. 1 side

Help I luv u if u help me!!!!
Pavlova-9 [17]
Perimeter is sum of all the sides.
SO, perimeter of that triangle will be
1/4 + 1/4 + 3/8.
The LCM of denominators (4,4,8) = 8.

Hence writing 1/4 = 2/8.

so,
Perimeter = 2/8+2/8+3/8 = (2+2+3)/8 = 7/8.

So, 7/8 ft is the perimeter of that triangle. :)
