How does the 3 in 350 compare to the 3 in 403

A girl walked 6km from her house to a market and discovered that she had covered 4/5 of the distance to the market how far is th

Korvikt [17]

Answer: $7.5\ km$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Girl has traveled 6 km from her house

She has covered $\frac{4}{5}$ of the distance

Suppose the total distance is x

$\therefore 6=\dfrac{4x}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{30}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{15}{2}\ \text{km}\\\\\Rightarrow x=7.5\ \text{km}$

m x H = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-25&37.5&-12.5\\\9\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Multiply 5 with this matrix $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&2\\4&8\\\end{array}\right]$ and we get a matrix $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5&10\\20&40\\\end{array}\right]$

Multiply the fraction $\frac{2}{5}$ with the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&2\\4&8\\\end{array}\right]$ and we get $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-\frac{2m}{5} &\frac{4m}{5} \\\frac{8m}{5} &\frac{16m}{5} \\\end{array}\right]$

Step2; Now equate corresponding values of the matrices with each other.

-5 = $\frac{-2m}{5}$ and so on. By equating we get the value of m as $\frac{25}{2}$

Step 3; Add the matrices to get the value of matrix m.

Adding the three matrices on the RHS we get $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&9&-9\\\end{array}\right]$ .

Step 4; Adding the matrices on the LHS we get the resulting matrix as H +

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&6&-8\\\9\end{array}\right]$ . Equating the matrices from step 3 and 4 we get the value of H as $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&-1\\\9\end{array}\right]$

Step 5; Now to find the value of m x H we need to multiply the value of $\frac{25}{2}$ with the matrix $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&-1\\\9\end{array}\right]$

Step 6; Multiplying we get the matrix m x H = [ -25 $\frac{75}{2}$ $\frac{-25}{2}$ ]
