Answer:

8 years

Salary: $95000

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation to model the salary and its raise per year. Add the base salary to the raise per year salary times (x). Where the parameter (x) represents the number of years spent in the company.

Company (1):

75000 + 2500x

Company (2):

55000 + 5000(x)

One is asked at which year will the salaries be the same. Equate the two expressions and solve for the variable (x):

75000 + 2500x = 55000 + 5000(x)

Inverse operations:

75000 + 2500x = 55000 + 5000x

20000 + 2500x = 5000x

20000 = 2500x

8 = x

Substitute (x) into any one of the experssions and simplify to solve the epxression,

55000 + 5000(x)

x = 8

= 55000 + 5000(8)

= 55000 + 40000

= 95000

Illusion [34]

Answer:

(0.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

the y intercept is determined by wherever x = 0

the ordered pair (0,6) has the x value equaling 0

therefore (0,6) represents the y-intercept

If A is a 2 × 2 matrix, then A × I = <br> and I × A =
krok68 [10]

Since the multiplication between two matrices is not <em>commutative</em>, then \vec A\, \times\,\vec I \ne \vec I \,\times \,\vec A, regardless of the dimensions of \vec A.

<h3>Is the product of two matrices commutative?</h3>

In linear algebra, we define the product of two matrices as follows:

\vec C = \vec A \,\times \vec B, where \vec A \in \mathbb{R}_{m\times p}, \vec B \in \mathbb{R}_{p\times n} and \vec C \in \mathbb{R}_{m \times n}     (1)

Where each element of the matrix is equal to the following dot product:

c_{ij} = \left[\begin{array}{cccc}a_{i1}&a_{i2}&\ldots&a_{ip}\end{array}\right]\,\bullet\,\left[\begin{array}{ccc}b_{1j}\\b_{2j}\\\vdots\\b_{pj}\end{array}\right], where 1 ≤ i ≤ m and 1 ≤ j ≤ n.     (2)

Because of (2), we can infer that the product of two matrices, no matter what dimensions each matrix may have, is not <em>commutative</em> because of the nature and characteristics of the definition itself, which implies operating on a row of the <em>former</em> matrix and a column of the <em>latter</em> matrix.

Such <em>"arbitrariness"</em> means that <em>resulting</em> value for c_{ij} will be different if the order between \vec A and \vec B is changed and even the dimensions of \vec C may be different. Therefore, the proposition is false.

How to find x in an exponential equation
xz_007 [3.2K]
If the bases are the same then you can let the exponents be equal to each other. If the exponents are not the same then you will have to use logarithms to solve for x.
