Find all solutions by transforming the system to reduced echelon form and back substituting. (If there are an infinite number of

solutions use s1 as your parameter. If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.)

Answer:

The system has infinite solutions described in the set \{(x_1,x_2,x_3)=(6+s1, -10-2s1,s1): s1\in\mathbb{R}\}

Step-by-step explanation:

The augmented matrix of the system is \left[\begin{array}{cccc}-1&-1&-1&4\\2&1&0&2\end{array}\right].

We apply row operations:

1. We add the first row to the second row twice and obtain the matrix \left[\begin{array}{cccc}-1&-1&-1&4\\0&-1&-2&10\end{array}\right]

2. multiply by -1 the rows of the previous matrix and obtain the matrix \left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&1&-4\\0&1&2&-10\end{array}\right] that is the reduced echelon form of the matrix associated to the system.

Now we aply backward substitution:

1. Observe that the reduced echelon form has a free variable, then the system has infinite solutions.

2.

x_2+2x_3=-10\\x_2=-10-2x_3

3.

x_1+x_2+x_3=-4\\x_1-10-2x_3+x_3=-4\\x_1-x_3=-4+10\\x_1=6+x_3.

Then the set of solutions is \{(x_1,x_2,x_3)=(6+s1, -10-2s1,s1): s1\in\mathbb{R}\}

The table shows how many books the students in Bergdalsskolan list during the summer. There were 48 students who list 4 books. a
Juliette [100K]

Step 1:

First, find the total number of students.

Let the total number of students = m

Step 2:

Find the total number of students using the percentage of 4 books.

48 students listed 4 books with a percentage of 16%

\begin{gathered} 48\text{ = 16\% of m} \\ 48\text{ = }\frac{16}{100}\text{   }\times\text{  m} \\ 48\text{ = }\frac{16m}{100} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 16m\text{ = 48  }\times\text{  100} \\ 16m\text{ = 4800} \\ \text{m = }\frac{4800}{16} \\ \text{m = 300} \end{gathered}

Hence, there are 300 students.

a)

\begin{gathered} \text{Number of students that had 1 book = 24\% of 300} \\ =\text{ }\frac{24}{100}\text{  }\times\text{  300} \\ =\text{ }\frac{7200}{100} \\ =\text{ 72  students} \end{gathered}

72 students had 1 book.

b) What percentage more read 2 books than 4 books?

percentage that read 2 books = 36%

percentage that read 4 books = 16%

36 - 16 = 20%

There are 20% students that read 2 books than 4 books.

Lisa paid 43.95 for 16.1 gallons of gasoline.What was the cost per gallon,rounded to the nearest hundredth?Show your work
GrogVix [38]

Cost per gallon is found by dividing the cost by the number of gallons.

$43.95/16.1 ≈ $2.7298137

Rounded to hundredths, this is $2.73.

Which of the following best represents the highest potential for nonresponse bias in a sampling strategy? Describe why this opti
natta225 [31]

Answer:

c. Asking people leaving a local election to take part in an exit poll

Step-by-step explanation:

Asking people leaving a local election to take part in an exit poll best represents the highest potential for nonresponse bias in a sampling strategy because of the importance of the local election compared to the exit polls.

It is worthy of note that nonresponse bias occurs when some respondents included in the sample do not respond to the survey. The major difference here is that the error comes from an absence of respondents not the collection of erroneous data. ...

Oftentimes, this form of bias is created by refusals to participate for one reason or another or the inability to reach some respondents.
