We can write the system in the following form:
\left[\begin{array}{cccc}5&-4&4&2\end{array}\right]  \left[\begin{array}{c}x_1\\x_2\\x_3\\x_4\end{array}\right]  =b
The above system is equivalent to the following equation:
5x_1-4x_2+4x_3+2x_4=b,\forall b\in\mathbb{R}
Of course, the above system has solution for any values of b since there is one equation and four variable, there is infinite number of solution each time.

The board of directors of a corporation must select a president, a secretary, and a treasurer. In how many possible ways can thi
pentagon [3]

Answer:

9,240 ways possible in which  this can be accomplished if there are 22 members on the board of directors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of available members in the board = 22

The number of posts chosen are a president, a secretary, and a treasurer.

<u>For the Post of President:</u>

The number of available options to choose a president = 22  options

<u>For the Post of Secretary:</u>

As we can not repeat the members because one person CANNOT hold two positions simultaneously.

The number of available options to choose a secretary = 21  options

<u>For the Post of Treasurer:</u>

As we can not repeat the members because two person CANNOT hold three positions simultaneously.

The number of available options to choose a treasure = 20 options

Now, the  possible ways can this whole election be accomplished is the product of all possible options

= 22 option x 21 option x 20 option

= 9,240 ways

Hence, there are 9,240 ways possible in which  this can be accomplished if there are 22 members on the board of directors.
