I believe the answer is A.

Absolute value best proves my answer.

Absolute value is how far a number is from zero.

The answer is A. If Williamsburg is the same distance from her house as Huntingdon but in the opposite direction then it would be -6.75.

Given the function f(x) = 2x, find the value of f−1(32).

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

find the inverse

exchange x for y and y for x

y=2x

then

x=2y---------> clear y

y=x/2

f−1(x)=x/2

for x=32

f−1(32)=32/2----------> 16

the answer is 16

Determine if the columns of the matrix form a linearly independent set. Justify your answer. [Start 3 By 4 Matrix 1st Row 1st Co

Answer:

Linearly Dependent for not all scalars are null.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

1)When we have vectors like $v_{1},v_{2},v_{3}, ...$ we call them linearly dependent if we have scalars $a_{1},a_{2},a_{3},...$ as scalar coefficients of those vectors, and not all are null and their sum is equal to zero.

$a_{1}\vec{v_{1}}+a_{2}\vec{v_{2}}+a_{3}\vec{v_{3}}+...a_{m}\vec{v_{m}}=0$

When all scalar coefficients are equal to zero, we can call them linearly independent

2) Now let's examine the Matrix given:

$\begin{bmatrix}1 &-2 &2 &3 \\ -2 & 4 & -4 &3 \\ 0&1 &-1 & 4\end{bmatrix}$

So each column of this Matrix is a vector. So we can write them as:

$\vec{v_{1}}=\left \langle 1,-2,1 \right \rangle,\vec{v_{2}}=\left \langle -2,4,-1 \right \rangle,\vec{v_{3}}=\left \langle 2,-4,4 \right \rangle\vec{v_{4}}=\left \langle 3,3,4 \right \rangle$ Or

Now let's rewrite it as a system of equations:

$a_{1}\begin{bmatrix}1\\ -2\\ 0\end{bmatrix}+a_{2}\begin{bmatrix}-2\\ 4\\ 1\end{bmatrix}+a_{3}\begin{bmatrix}2\\ -4\\ -1\end{bmatrix}+a_{4}\begin{bmatrix}3\\ 3\\ 4\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\ 0\\ 0\end{bmatrix}$

2.1) Since we want to try whether they are linearly independent, or dependent we'll rewrite as a Linear system so that we can find their scalar coefficients, whether all or not all are null.

Using the Gaussian Elimination Method, augmenting the matrix, then proceeding the calculations, we can see that not all scalars are equal to zero. Then it is Linearly Dependent.

$\left ( \left.\begin{matrix}1 &-2 &2 &3 \\ -2 &4 &-4 &3 \\ 0 & 1 &-1 &4 \\ \end{matrix}\right|\begin{matrix}0\\ 0\\ 0\end{matrix} \right )R_{1}\times2 +R_{2}\rightarrow R_{2}\left ( \left.\begin{matrix}1 &-2 &2 &3 \\ 0 &0 &9 &0\\ 0 & 1 &-1 &4 \\ \end{matrix}\right|\begin{matrix}0\\ 0\\ 0\end{matrix} \right )\ R_{2}\Leftrightarrow R_{3}\left ( \left.\begin{matrix}1 &-2 &2 &3 \\ 0 &1 &-1 &4 \\ 0 &0 &9 &0 \\ \end{matrix}\right|\begin{matrix}0\\ 0\\ 0\end{matrix} \right )$ $\left\{\begin{matrix}1a_{1} &-2a_{2} &+2a_{3} &+3a_{4} &=0 \\ &1a_{2} &-1a_{3} &+4a_{4} &=0 \\ & & &9a_{4} &=0 \end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow a_{1}=0, a_{2}=a_{3},a_{4}=0$
