Answer:

The proof is given below:

Step-by-step explanation:

We recall that the rank of a matrix MM is the dimension of the range R(M)R(M) of the matrix MM.

So we have

rank(AB)=dim(R(AB)),rank(A)=dim(R(A)).rank(AB)=dim(R(AB)),rank(A)=dim(R(A)).

In general, if a vector space VV is a subset of a vector space WW, then we have

dim(V)≤dim(W).dim (V)≤dim(W).

Thus, it suffices to show that the vector space R(AB)R(AB) is a subset of the vector space R(A)R(A).

Consider any vector y∈R(AB)y∈R(AB). Then there exists a vector x∈Rlx∈Rl such that y=(AB)xy=(AB)x by the definition of the range.

Let z=Bx∈Rnz=Bx∈Rn.

Then we have

y=A(Bx)=Azy=A(Bx)=Az

and thus the vector yy is in R(A)R(A). Thus R(AB)R(AB) is a subset of R(A)R(A) and we have

rank(AB)=dim(R(AB))≤dim(R(A))=rank(A) [Proved]

(Need 3 answers) An entomologist discovered a new insect species. The population of the insect species can be modeled by P(n) =
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>According to the model, the equation is:</u>

  • P(n) = 3450*bⁿ

Based on the equation, the initial number of insects is 3450

<u>If b = 1.75, daily growth rate is:</u>

  • 1.75 - 1 = 0.75 = 75%

<u>If  we get P(4) = 55200, find the value of b:</u>

  • 55200 = 3450*b⁴
  • b⁴ = 55200/3450
  • b⁴ = 16
  • b⁴ = 2⁴
  • b = 2
