Answer:

E, needs more info to be determined

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Kai takes 30 minutes round-trip to get to his school.

One way is uphill and the other is downhill.

He travels twice as fast downhill than uphill.

This means that uphill accounts for 20 minutes of the round-trip and downhill accounts for 10 minutes of his trip.

However, even with this information, we do not know how far his school is.

In order to figure out how far away his school is, we would need more information about the speed at which Kai is traveling.

Simply knowing that he travels twice as fast downhill is not enough.

This question could only be solved by knowing how many miles Kai travels uphill or downhill in a given time.

2. Solve the system of equations. Write your answer in parametric vector notation. X, +5x2 + 4x3 + 3x4 +9xs = 18 2x, +6x2 + 4x3

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The system is inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system is

$x_1+5x_2+4x_3+3x_4+9x_5=18\\2x_1+6x_2+4x_3+6x_4+6x_5=28\\3x_1+7x_2+4x_3+10x_4+x_5=41\\4x_1+6x_2+2x_3+7x_4+4x_5=29$

The associated matrix to the system is

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\2&6&4&6&6&28\\3&7&4&10&1&41\\4&6&2&7&4&29\end{array}\right]$

Now we use row operations to find the echelon form of the matrix:

1. We substract to row 2, two times the row 1.

We substract to row 3, three times the row 1.

We substract to row 4, four times the row 1 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&-4&-4&0&-12&-8\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]$

2. We multiply the second row of the preview step by -1/4. We obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&-8&-8&1&-26&-13\\0&-14&-14&-5&-32&-43\end{array}\right]$

We add to row 3, eight times the row 2.

We add to row 4, fourtheen times the row 2 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&-5&10&-155\end{array}\right]$

4. We add to row 4 of the preview step, five times the row 3 and obtain the matrix

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}1&5&4&3&9&18\\0&1&1&0&3&2\\0&0&0&1&-2&3\\0&0&0&0&0&-140\end{array}\right]$

Using backward substitution we have that

$0x_5=-140$ , then $0=-140$ and this is absurd. Then The system is inconsistent.

the sum of two numbers is 104. the larger is one less than twice the smaller number. find the numbers

exis [7]

Answer:

The larger number is 69 and the smaller number is 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the equations. Here x will be the larger number and y will be the smaller number.

x + y = 104

x = 2y -1

Substitute:

(2y -1) + y = 104

3y = 105

y = 35

x = 2(35) - 1

x = 70 - 1

x = 69

The larger number is 69 and the smaller number is 35.
