If b does not equal 0​, can the solution set of ax = b be a plane through the​ origin

A plane pass through the origin mean it passes (0,0)

When we plug in 0 for x  then ax=b becomes

a(0) = 0 , when x = 0 then b not equal to 0 is a contradiction .

So , it is not possible if b does not equal 0​, can the solution set of ax = b be a plane through the​ origin.

Hi . I need help with the question below and the one in the picture.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

1) N5.00

2) N1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 1/2+1/4+1/5=10/20+5/20+4/20=19/20=95%

That means the 4th girl received 5%.

25 is 5% of 500

500 Kobo is N5.00

2) He lost 55%, so they means he has 45% left.

67.5 is 45% of 150

(67.5/0.45=150)

150Kobo is N1.50

PLEASEE help I’m really confused
maksim [4K]

Answer:

\frac{13}{\sqrt5}

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the shortest distance from a point to a line, we need to find a perpendicular line that intersects the line and also intersects the line. We know the slope of the line will be 1/2, but to find the y-intercept, we can just plug it into the point because we already know it will be on the line.

-3 = 1/2(-2)+c

-3 = -1+c

-2 = c

Now, we know the slope and the y-intercept, and since it will intersect the other line, we can set it equal to the other lines formula:

1/2x-2 = -2x+6

5/2x=8

x=16/5

Now, plugging this value of x into any of the equations, we can find the y-coordinate:

16/5(1/2)-2 = -2/5

We have the point (16/5, -2/5)

Now, we need to find the distance between (-2, -3) and (16/5, -2/5)

Plugging into distance formula:

\sqrt{(-2 - \frac{16}{5})^2+(-3-(-\frac{2}{5}))^2}\\=  \sqrt{(-5.2)^2+(-2.6)^2}\\= \sqrt{33.8}

= =\frac{13}{\sqrt5}

In stats would a test looking at gender &amp; holiday preference would I do a Chi-squared test? Which is the explanatory &amp; w
Liula [17]

In statistics, a Chi-squared test may be used to determine holiday choice and gender and α (alpha) is the response variable.

<h3>What is the Chi-squared test? </h3>

A statistical technique called the chi-square test is used to compare actual outcomes with predictions.

The goal of this test is to establish if a discrepancy between actual and predicted data is the result of chance or a correlation between the variables you are researching.

Whether there is a statistically significant association between categorical variables is determined by the Chi-square test of independence.

This issue is addressed by a hypothesis test. The chi-square test of association is another name for this assessment.

Hence,in stats would a test looking at gender & holiday preference yes you can do  a Chi-squared test and α(alpha) is the response variable.

To learn more about the Chi-squared test refer;
