Answer:

y = -23x + 7

Step-by-step explanation

We are using the equation y = mx + b.

The slope (m) is -23, so it would be y = -23 + b.

b is the y-intercept, and the ordered pair that gives us the y-intercept is (0,7).

Remember that the y-intercept is what the y-coordinate is equal to when the x-coordinate is 0.

Let $\mathbf V$ be the $m\times3$ matrix whose columns are $\mathbf v_1,\mathbf v_2,\mathbf v_3$ , and let $\mathbf c$ be the vector whose components are the constants $c_1,c_2,c_3$ . Now consider the matrix equation

$\mathbf V\mathbf c=\mathbf 0$

Multiplying both sides by $\mathbf V^\top$ , we have

$\mathbf V^\top(\mathbf V\mathbf c)=(\mathbf V^\top\mathbf V)\mathbf c=\mathbf 0$

More explicitly, we're writing

$\mathbf V=\begin{bmatrix}\mathbf v_1&\mathbf v_2&\mathbf v_3\end{bmatrix}$

Multiply both sides by $\mathbf V^\top$ and the left hand side can be written as

$\mathbf V^\top\mathbf V=\begin{bmatrix}{\mathbf v_1}^\top\\{\mathbf v_2}^\top\\{\mathbf v_3}^\top\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\mathbf v_1&\mathbf v_2&\mathbf v_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}{\mathbf v_1}^\top\mathbf v_1&{\mathbf v_1}^\top\mathbf v_2&{\mathbf v_1}^\top\mathbf v_3\\{\mathbf v_2}^\top\mathbf v_1&{\mathbf v_2}^\top\mathbf v_2&{\mathbf v_2}^\top\mathbf v_3\\{\mathbf v_3}^\top\mathbf v_1&{\mathbf v_3}^\top\mathbf v_2&{\mathbf v_3}^\top\mathbf v_3\end{bmatrix}$

We're told that ${\mathbf v_i}^\top\mathbf v_j=0$ whenever $i\neq j$ , so we're left with

$\mathbf V^\top\mathbf V=\begin{bmatrix}\|\mathbf v_1\|^2&0&0\\0&\|\mathbf v_2\|^2&0\\0&0&\|\mathbf v_3\|^2\end{bmatrix}$

Each of $\mathbf v_1,\mathbf v_2,\mathbf v_3$ are nonzero, which means their norms are nonzero, which necessarily implies that $\mathbf c=0$ , and so the vectors $\mathbf v_1,\mathbf v_2,\mathbf v_3$ must necessarily be linearly independent.

Write an equation that expresses the following relationship: x varies directly as p and inversely as the difference between y an

dsp73

X = kp/y-c

cross multiply

xy-xc = kp

factor out the x

x(y-c) = kp

divide entire equation by x

y-c = kp/x

isolate y since we are solving for y
we do this by adding c to both sides which ultimately gives us the answer

y = kp/x + c

Point R divides in the ratio 1 : 3. If the x-coordinate of R is -1 and the x-coordinate of P is -3, what is the x-coordinate of

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Point R divides the line segment PQ internally. The x-coordinate of the point which divides the line segment in ration m:n internally can be calculated as:

$x=(\frac{mx_{2}+nx_{1}}{m+n} )$

Here, x1 is the x-coordinate of 1st point, x2 is the x-coordinate of 2nd point, x is the x-coordinate of point dividing the segment. We have all the values except x2. Using the given values in above formula, we get:

$-1=\frac{x_{2}+3(-3) }{1+3} \\ \\-4=x_{2}-9\\\\ 5=x_{2}$

Thus the x-coordinate of point Q will be 5

The x-coordinate of Q is 5.
