Answer:

1 term

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing an expression of 5 terms such that all 5 terms are like terms ;

Using the analogy :

x, 2x, 4x, 3x, 5x

Writing as an expression :

x + 2x + 4x - 3x + 5x

7x - x + 5x

6x + 5x

11x

The least number of terms in its equivalent expression is 1 ;

As the expression x + 2x + 4x - 3x + 5x is equivalent to 11x

Show that the sets of upper-triangular and lower-triangular matrices are subspaces of F n,n . Call them U and L respectively. Wh
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

dim L = dim U = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do it only for the lower-triangular matrices, the case of the upper-triangular matrices is similar. We might caracterice nxn the lower-triangular matrices, as the nxn matrices A=(a_{ij}) such that the entry a_{ij}=0 if i<j.

Now let A=(a_{ij}) and B=(b_{ij}) be two lower triangular matrices, now if

C=A+\lambda  B for some \lambda \in \mathbb{F}

then the entry c_{ij} of C is equal to

c_{ij}=a_{ij}+\lambda b_{ij}

Now, if i<j, it must hold that a_{ij}=0 \quad \text{and} \quad b_{ij}=0. Therefore, if this is the case we must have that c_{ij}=0 and so we get that C is also a lower triangular matrix. This showa that L is closed under sum and scalar multiplcation, hence it is a linear subspace.

To find the dimension, note that all the entries of a lower-triangular matrix over the diagonal must be equal to zero. However, each entry of the matrix under the diagonal and in the diagonal might be any element of \mathbb{F}, any entry that can be choosen add up to the dimension of L, we n such elemnts for the first column, (n-1) for the second column, (n-2) for the third column etc.... Therefore,

\dimL=n+(n-1)+(n-2)+...+2+1=\dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}

Please help!!!!! Susan walked 1 2/3
Lelu [443]

Answer:

= 1  1/3 miles or 1. 336 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

if 1  1/4 (5/4)hrs = 1 2/3 (5/3)miles      or        if 1.25hrs  = 1.67miles

1 hr =<u> 1 hr x 5/3miles</u>                           or        1 hr =  <u>1hr x 1.67miles</u>

                 5/4hrs                                               1.25hrs

= <u>1  1/3 miles</u>                                        or        <u> 1. 336 miles</u>

P=rt+0.16s  

365=20r+0.16(1500)

365=20r+240

125=20r

r=6.25

So Piper makes $6.25 an hour.
