The vectors in S form a basis of P_2 if they are mutually linearly independent and span P_2.

To check for independence, we can compute the Wronskian determinant:

\begin{vmatrix}x^2+3x+1&2x^2+x-1&4\\2x+3&4x+1&0\\2&4&0\end{vmatrix}=4\begin{vmatrix}2x+3&4x+1\\2&4\end{vmatrix}=40\neq0

The determinant is non-zero, so the vectors are indeed independent.

To check if they span P_2, you need to show that any vector in P_2 can be expressed as a linear combination of the vectors in S. We can write an arbitrary vector in P_2 as

p=ax^2+bx+c

Then we need to show that there is always some choice of scalars k_1,k_2,k_3 such that

k_1(x^2+3x+1)+k_2(2x^2+x-1)+k_34=p

This is equivalent to solving

(k_1+2k_2)x^2+(3k_1+k_2)x+(k_1-k_2+4k_3)=ax^2+bx+c

or the system (in matrix form)

\begin{bmatrix}1&1&0\\3&1&0\\1&-1&4\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}k_1\\k_2\\k_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}a\\b\\c\end{bmatrix}

This has a solution if the coefficient matrix on the left is invertible. It is, because

\begin{vmatrix}1&1&0\\3&1&0\\1&-1&4\end{vmatrix}=4\begin{vmatrix}1&2\\3&1\end{vmatrix}=-20\neq0

(that is, the coefficient matrix is not singular, so an inverse exists)

Compute the inverse any way you like; you should get

\begin{bmatrix}1&1&0\\3&1&0\\1&-1&4\end{bmatrix}^{-1}=-\dfrac1{20}\begin{bmatrix}4&-8&0\\-12&4&0\\-4&3&-5\end{bmatrix}

Then

\begin{bmatrix}k_1\\k_2\\k_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1&1&0\\3&1&0\\1&-1&4\end{bmatrix}^{-1}\begin{bmatrix}a\\b\\c\end{bmatrix}

\implies k_1=\dfrac{2b-a}5,k_2=\dfrac{3a-b}5,k_3=\dfrac{4a-3b+5c}{20}

A solution exists for any choice of a,b,c, so the vectors in S indeed span P_2.

The vectors in S are independent and span P_2, so S forms a basis of P_2.

Find the regression line associated with the set of points. (Round all coefficients to four decimal places.) HINT (See Example 2
horrorfan [7]

The equation of the regression line is : Ŷ = 0.8571+0.8878X

Given the set of points :

(1, 2), (4,4), (9,9)

X axis : ___ Y axis

1 ___________2

1 ___________2 4 __________ 4

1 ___________2 4 __________ 4 9 __________ 9

The regression line associated could be obtained using technology such as excel, linear regression solvers or a graphing calculator.

Using technology :

Input the values of X and Y into their appropriate column and plot :

The regression equation obtained is :

Ŷ = 0.8571 + 0.8878X

Where :

Ŷ = predicted value of Y(dependent variable)

X = Independent variable

Slope = 0.8878

Intercept = 0.8571

The regression plot is attached below

If measure KL=136 and measure LH= 113. find measure angle KJH
notka56 [123]

Answer:

D) 111

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find ∠KJH we must find the measure of arc KH

Note that ∠KJH is a central angle and arc KH is the arc it intercepts

Because ∠KJH is a central angle it equal the measure of its intercepted arc

Thus, ∠KJH = arc KH

J is a circle that is made up of 3 arc; KL, LH and KH

If you didn't know the sum of the arcs in a circle = 360°

Which means that arc KL + arc LH + arc KH = 360

If arc KL = 136 and arc LH = 113

Then 136 + 113 + arc KH = 360

                        ^ ( note that we just created an equation that we can use to

                            solve for arc KH )

We now solve for arc KH

136 + 113 + arc KH = 360

* combine like terms *

136 + 113 = 249

we now have 249 + arc KH = 360

* subtract 249 from each side *

249 - 249 cancels out

360 - 249 = 111

We're left with arc KH = 111°

Like stated previously arc KH = ∠KJH

Hence, ∠KJH = 111°
