Show that there do not exist scalar c1 c2 and c3 c1(-2,9,6)+c2(-3,2,1)+c3(1,7,5)= (0,5,4)​
fredd [130]

This is the same as showing the following system of equations doesn't have a solution:

\begin{cases}-2c_1-3c_2+c_3 = 0 \\ 9c_1 + 2c_2 + 7c_3 = 5 \\ 6c_1 + c_2 + 5c_3 = 4\end{cases}

or in matrix form,

\begin{bmatrix}-2&9&6\\-3&2&1\\1&7&5\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}c_1\\c_2\\c_3\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}0\\5\\4\end{bmatrix}

The quickest way to check if there is a solution is to check whether the coefficient matrix is invertible. If its determinant is 0, then it is not invertible.

And the quickest way to show that the determinant is 0 is by observing that the third row is a linear combination of the first two rows:

(-2, 9, 6) - (-3, 2, 1) = (-2 + 3, 9 - 2, 6 - 1) = (1, 7, 5)

So there are indeed no such scalars <em>c₁</em>, <em>c₂</em>, and <em>c₃</em>.

2x2-3x-2=x+4 select all the solutions
Papessa [141]
Solve for x over the real numbers:2 x^2 - 3 x - 2 = x + 4
Subtract x + 4 from both sides:2 x^2 - 4 x - 6 = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with three terms:2 (x - 3) (x + 1) = 0
Divide both sides by 2:(x - 3) (x + 1) = 0
Split into two equations:x - 3 = 0 or x + 1 = 0
Add 3 to both sides:x = 3 or x + 1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides:Answer:  x = 3 or x = -1

The first two terms of an exponential sequence are 18 and 6. What are the next three terms?
sweet [91]

Answer:

The next three terms are 54, 162, 486

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential sequences you multiply to find the next term

6 x 3 = 18 (to find the next term you can multiply the previous term by 3)

18 x 3 = 54

54 x 3 = 162

162 x 3 = 486

goblinko [34]

Find the difference:

1400 - 1250 = 150

Divide the difference by the starting value:

150 / 1250 = 0.12

Multiply by 100:

0.12 x 100 = 12% increase.
