Andru [333]3 years ago

Answer:

x=-160

Step-by-step explanation:

One-fourth of a number decreased by 10 is -50. Find the number.

\frac{1}{4}x-10=-50

First, add 10 to both sides:

\frac{1}{4}x-10+10=-50+10\\\\\frac{1}{4}x=-40

Then, divide each side by \frac{1}{4}:

\frac{1}{4}x\div{\frac{1}{4}}=-40\div{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\x=-40\times{\frac{4}{1}}\\\\x=-160

1/4x - 10 = -50

1/4x = one forth of a number

-10 is decreased by 10

= -50 means is -50

A quadrilateral with no sides parallel and diagonals that are perpendicular
Drupady [299]
<h3>Answer:  Quadrilateral</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

Of your original given list, let's write down the parallelograms. They are:

  • Parallelogram
  • Rectangle
  • Rhombus
  • Square

So we cross those off the list since we want a quadrilateral with no sides parallel. A parallelogram, by definition, is a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides that are parallel.

We can also rule out the trapezoids because a trapezoid is a four sided figure (quadrilateral) where we have exactly 1 pair of parallel sides, while the other sides are not parallel.

Lastly, we can rule out the kite because any kite has perpendicular diagonals.

The only thing left is quadrilateral. In my opinion this answer should be more specific and say "quadrilateral that isn't a parallelogram, a trapezoid, or a kite", but I think I see what your teacher was going for here.

[Systems of equations] (/20) 1. Suppose the coefficient matrix of a system of linear equations has a pivot position in every row
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The system is consistent because the rightmost column of the augmented matrix is not a pivot column.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the coefficient of the matrix of a linear equation has a pivot position in every row.

It is provided by the Existence and Uniqueness theorem that linear system is said to be consistent when only  the column in the rightmost of the matrix which is augmented is not a pivot column.

When the linear system is considered consistent, then every solution set consists of either unique solution where there will be no any variables which are free or infinitely many solutions, when there is at least one free variable. This explains why the system is consistent.

For any m x n augmented matrix of any system, if its co-efficient matrix has a pivot position in every row, then there will never be a row of the form [0 .... 0 b].
