Consider the following matrix.

Mathematics
1 answer:
faltersainse [42]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a) the number of equations=2 and the number of variables=2

b) the system is consistent for all k , such that k≠(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) for the matrix

A= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&k&3\\-2&4&1\end{array}\right] \\

then the number of equations = number of rows = 2 , and the number of variables = number of columns - 1 (that correspond to the independent vector or results of the equation) = 3-1 = 2

b) the system is consistent when there is at least one solution. Then the system will be inconsistent for

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1*(-2)&k*(-2)&3*(-2)\\-2&4&1\end{array}\right] \\=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&(-2k)&-6\\-2&4&1\end{array}\right] \\

for -2*k=4 → k=(-2) , the system is not consistent since the same equation -2*x + 4*y =(-6) according to the first row , while in the second row -2*x + 4*y =1  (that would mean (-6)=1 )

then the system is consistent for all k , such that k≠(-2)

If 15% of x is 42, what is x?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

x=280

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, 15% × x = 42

or,

15

100

× x = 42

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 15,

we have x = 42 ×

100

15

x = 280

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 42×100÷15, which will give you the answer.

A hiker maintains an average speed of 3 3/4 km/h. How many kilometers will the hiker walk in: 2 1/6 h
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
I'm not all that familiar with that sort of representation, but I guess 3 3/4 = 15/4 and 2 1/6 = 13/6.

You will simply have to multiply the time spent walking, 13/6 hours, by the average distance traveled on an hourly basis, 15/4 km/h.

(13*15)/(4*6) = 195/24 = 8,125 km
