Fofino [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: It will always be n-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two examples:

▪-----▪-----▪

3 collinear points --> 2 segments

▪-----▪-----▪-----▪-----▪-----▪

6 collinear points --> 5 segments

It is n MINUS one because the last point does not make another segment.

All tubes of watercolor paint at an art supply store have the the same price. An artist has a coupon for $0.50 off each tube of
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Let us assume the regular price of each tube of paint = r.

0.50 off each tube.

New price of each tube = r - 0.50.

She buy 6 tubes.

Total price of 6 tubes = 6×(r-0.50).

We are given total price = $84.30 .

Therefore, we can setup an equation

6×(r-0.50) = 84.30.

Distributing 6 over (r-0.50), we get

6r - 3.0 = 84.30

Adding 3.0 on both sides, we get

6r - 3.0+3.0 = 84.30+3.0

6r = 87.30

Dividing both sides by 6, we get

6r/6 = 87.30/6

r = 14.55

<h3>Therefore, required equation is 6(r-0.50) = 84.30 and the regular price of each tube of paint is $14.55.</h3>

Suppose that A = PDP-1 . Prove that det(A) = det(D)
daser333 [38]

Answer:

Check.

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove it we need to know that  for two matrices A and B we have that:

det(AB) = det(A)*det(B) and det(A^{-1}) = \frac{1}{det(A)}. Now:

A = PDP^{-1}

det(A) = det(PDP^{-1})

det(A) = det(P)*det(D)*det(P^{-1})

det(A) = det(P)*det(D)*\frac{1}{det(P)}

det(A) = det(P)*\frac{1}{det(P)}*det(D)

det(A) = det(D).
