Answer:

84 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the area of the wall.

The wall is 8 ft high and 16 ft wide

A = LW

A = (16)(8)

A = 128 ft²

Step 2: Find the area of the window, fireplace, and mirror.

Window: The window measures 18 in wide and 14 ft high

18 in = 1.5 ft

A = LW

A = (14)(1.5)

A = 21 ft²

Fireplace: The fireplace is 5 ft wide and 3 ft high

A = LW

A = (3)(5)

A = 15 ft²

Mirror: The mirror above the fireplace is 4 ft wide and 2 ft high

A = LW

A = (2)(4)

A = 8 ft²

Step 3: Add all the areas of the three objects (window, fireplace, and mirror)

A = 21 + 15 + 8

A = 36 + 8

A = 44 ft²

Step 4: Subtract the total area of the objects from the area of the wall.

A = 128 ft² - 44 ft²

A = 84 ft²

84 sq. ft of the wall has to be covered with paint or wallpaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the area of wallpaper to be covered by calculating the area of the wall and subtracting the areas of the window, mirror and fireplace from it. All are rectangular in shape with are given by A = length × width

Area of the wall = 8 × 16 = 128 ft²

Area of the window = 18/12 × 14 = 1.5 × 14 = 21 ft² (since 1 ft = 12 in)

Area of the fireplace = 5 × 3 = 15 ft²

Area of the mirror = 4 × 2 = 8 ft²

Step 2: Calculate the area to be painted or covered with wallpaper

Area of the wall to be covered with paint or wallpaper = 128 - (21 + 15 + 8)

= 128 - 44

= 84 ft²

Find the? inverse, if it? exists, for the given matrix.<br><br> [4 3]<br><br> [3 6]

True [87]

Answer:

Therefore, the inverse of given matrix is

$=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a square matrix $A$ is $A^{-1}$ such that

$A A^{-1}=I$ where I is the identity matrix.

Consider, $A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&3\\3&6\end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{Matrix\:can\:only\:be\:inverted\:if\:it\:is\:non-singular,\:that\:is:}$

$\det \begin{pmatrix}4&3 \\3&6\end{pmatrix}\ne 0$

$\mathrm{Find\:2x2\:matrix\:inverse\:according\:to\:the\:formula}:\quad \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}^{-1}=\frac{1}{\det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}}\begin{pmatrix}d\:&\:-b\:\\ -c\:&\:a\:\end{pmatrix}$

$=\frac{1}{\det \begin{pmatrix}4&3\\ 3&6\end{pmatrix}}\begin{pmatrix}6&-3\\ -3&4\end{pmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:matrix\:determinant\:according\:to\:formula}:\quad \det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}\:=\:ad-bc$

$4\cdot \:6-3\cdot \:3=15$

$=\frac{1}{15}\begin{pmatrix}6&-3\\ -3&4\end{pmatrix}$

$=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}$

Therefore, the inverse of given matrix is

$=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}$

C=48y+0.99n solve for y

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

y = (C -0.99n)/48

Step-by-step explanation:

Undo what is done to y, in the reverse order. We have y multiplied by 48 then added to 0.99n. So, we must add the opposite of 0.99n and multiply that result by the reciprocal of 48.

C = 48y + 0.99n . . . . . . given

C - 0.99n = 48y . . . . . . add -0.99n

(C -0.99n)/48 = y . . . . . multiply by 1/48
