If the matrix is of 2 by 2 then we can find the determinant of the matrix.
Then (ad - bc ) gives you the determinant of the matrix.
For example,
= (2)(-2) - (1)(4)
= - 4 - 4
= -8
Answer:
Let x represents the hours and y represents the total fees(in dollars)
As per the statement:
(a)
For a house call, a veterinarian charges $70, plus $40 an hour
"$40 an hour" means 40x
then;
the equation we get;
.....[1]
(b).
Find the x-intercept.
x-intercept states that the graph cross the x-axis.
Substitute y = 0 in the equation and solve for x;
we get;
y-intercept states that the graph crosses the y-axis i.e
Substitute x= 0 in the equation and solve for y;
Therefore, x-intercept and y-intercept of equation [1] are:
and 70
