Answer:

f(- 2) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(- 2), substitute x = - 2 into f(x), that is

f(- 2) = 2(- 2) + 6 = - 4 + 6 = 2

Answer:

f(-2) = -4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x + 6

f(-2) = -2(2x) + 6

f(-2) = -4x + 6

Please help I just need the height and area of the triangle 6th grade math

Vesna [10]

Answer:

It looks like you forgot to attach a picture.

Since I cannot answer you're question fully, it will not be a complete solution.

The formula for the area of a triangle is $\frac{1}{2} b \cdot h$ .

Just substitute you're base and height values.

Hope this helps!!!

An electronics company produces transistors, resistors, and computer chips. Each transistor requires 3 units of copper, 1 unit

padilas [110]

Answer:

An electronics company can be produce 350 transistors and 340 computer chips, they can´t produce resistors.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We will name the variables for transistors, resistors and the computer chips.

a = Transistors

b= Resistors

c = Computer chips

2. We propose three linear equations, one for the copper, one for the zinc and one for the glass.

$\left \{ {{3a+3b+2c=1730} \atop {a+2b+c=690}}\atop {2a+b+2c=1380}} \right.$

3. We write the matrix form as Ax=d

$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&3&2\\1&2&1\\2&1&2\end{array}\right)$

$x=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}a\\b\\c\end{array}\right)$

$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1730\\690\\1380\end{array}\right)$

With this formula the solution of x is $x=\frac{d}{A}$ or $x=A^{-1}d$

4. We will find the inverse matrix $A^{-1}$ using the formula:

$A^{-1} = \frac{1}{detA} (C_{A})^{T}$

a. det A

$det A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&3&2\\1&2&1\\2&1&2\end{array}\right] =3*(4-1)-3*(2-2)+2*(1-4)=9-0-6=3$

b. $(C_{A})^{T}$

$C_{A}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}4-1&.(2-2)&1-4\\-(6-2)&6-4&-(3-6)\\3-4&-(3-2)&6-3\end{array}\right)$

$C_{A}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&.0&-3\\-4&2&3\\-1&-1&3\end{array}\right)$

$(C_{A}) ^T=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&0&-3\\-4&2&3\\-1&-1&3\end{array}\right)^T$

$(C_{A}) ^T=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)$

c. $A^{-1}$

$A^{-1}=\frac{1}{3} \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)$

5. As $x=\frac{d}{A}$ or $x=A^{-1}d$ , the solution of x is:

$x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1730\\690\\1380\end{array}\right)$

$x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}(3*1730)+(-4*690)+(-1*1380)\\(0*1730)+(2*690)+(-1*1380)\\(-3*1730)+(3*690)+(3*1380)\end{array}\right)$

$x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1050\\0\\1020)\end{array}\right)$

$X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}350\\0\\340\end{array}\right]$

Therefore:

a= 350 Transistors

b=0 Resistors

c=340 Computer chips
