Answer:
Scalar product
Step-by-step explanation:
The scalar product of a matrix refers to the product of a matrix and a number. The scalar is used to multiply each element in the matrix to get the final vector. In the question the scalar is k which is a constant and the matrix is A.
in the example below 2 is the scalar
![2*\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&3\\4&5&6\\7&8&9\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%2A%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%262%263%5C%5C4%265%266%5C%5C7%268%269%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
the final matrix will be
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&4&6\\8&10&12\\14&16&18\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2%264%266%5C%5C8%2610%2612%5C%5C14%2616%2618%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

Now completing the square.

(x+5)² = 16 is the rewritten equation... For first question btw.
For the solutions to the equation -

x = -1,-9 is the solution, for the second question.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Jill makes purses and backpacks.
Let x represent the number of foot of fabric required to make a purse.
Let y represent the number of foot of fabric required to make a backpack.
To make each purse,she uses 1 foot less than half the amount of fabric she uses to make a backpack. This means that
x = (y/2) - 1
Therefore, the amount of fabric that Jill needs to make backpack will be
y/2 = x-1
y = 2(x-1) = 2x - 2
The number of feet of fabric that she will use to make a purse is
x = (y/2) - 1
If they get unexpected results they could note what they could've done wrong or what they could change in a next trail of experiments. Or look back and see what different happened to they could've hypothesized. There could be many different courses on what to do next.
Well idk what the numbers are, but the formula to find the are is 3.14(pi) x r^2
