Consider M2(R) for a,b,c,d in R.
det (M2 (R))=ad-bc=0 for identity yet limx->0 (1/x)
DNE therefore it is Undefined.

Answer:

The determinant of an identity matrix is always 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An identity matrix.

We have to find the determinant of an identity matrix.

Consider an identity matrix,

Identity matrix is a matrix having entry one in its diagonal and  rest all entries are zero.

Let us consider a 2 × 2 identity matrix,

I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]

We know determinant of a  2 × 2 matrix

I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]

is given by

D = ad - bc

Thus, here a = 1 , b = 0 , c= 0 d= 1

Thus, D = 1 - 0 = 1

Thus, The determinant of an identity matrix is always 1.

Can anyone help me solve this Algebra 2 Problem, i literally cant figure it out
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Zeros : 1 , -1, 3

Degree : 4

End Behaviour : At x-> ∞ f(x) -> ∞ and x->-∞ f(x) -> ∞

Y - intercept : -3

Extra Points: (0,-3), (2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 0 to find the zeros

Therefore (x+1)(x-1)^{2} (x-3) = 0

Clearly x = -1,1,3

Here 1 is a repeating root as it is (x-1)²

Degree is highest power of x in f(x)

Clearly it is x*x²*x = x⁴ is the maximum power of x

Thus degree is 4

Looking at end behavior we substitute x->∞ and x-> -∞

Clearly f(x)>0 as all terms are positive and f(x)->∞

Similarly when x->-∞

f(x)>0 as 2 terms are -ve and their product is positive thus f(x)-> ∞

Y-Intercept is f(0)

f(0) = (0+1)(0-1)²(0-3) = 1*1*-3 = -3

Thus Y-Intercept is -3

Substitute x = 0 , 2 for extra points

Thus f(0) = -3

and f(2) = -3

Thus points on the graph (0,-3), (0,2)

We can use all this information to draw a graph remember that 1 is a repeating root so that will be a point of minima. The graph is a parabola that passes through x-axis at x = -1, 3.

What is the distributive property to expand the algebraic expression.5(2f - 6g)
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

10f-30g

Step-by-step explanation:

we have:

5(2f - 6g)

we apply distributive property:

5(2f - 6g)

5*2f+5*(-6g)

finally we have:

10f-30g
