Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

During a sale at the market​, steaks sold for ​$2 and watermelons sold for ​$1.50. Declan spent ​$10 and bought a total of 6 steaks and watermelons. How many of each did he ​buy?

Let us represent

Steaks = x

Water melons = y

Our system of equations is given as:

x + y = 6.. Equation 1

x = 6 - y

During a sale at the market​, steaks sold for ​$2 and watermelons sold for ​$1.50.

$2× x + 1.5 × y = $10

2x + 1.5y = 10... Equation 2

Substitute

2(6 - y) + 1.5y = 10

12 - 2y + 1.5y = 10

12 - 10 = 2y - 1.5y

2 = 0.5y

y = 2/0.5

y = 4

If the value of third order determinant is 11. Then what is the value of the determinant formed by its cofactors.
nordsb [41]

Answer:

146.41

Step-by-step explanation:

third order determinant = determinant of 3×3 matrix A

given ∣A∣=11

det (cofactor matrix of A) =set (transpare of cofactor amtrix of A) (transpare does not change the det)

=det(adjacent of A)

{det (cofactor matrix of A)}  ^2  = {det (adjacent of A)} ^2

 

(Using for an n×n det (cofactor matrix of A)=det (A)^n−1 )

we get

det (cofactor matrix of A)^2  = {det(A)  ^3−1 }^2

 

=(11)^2×2  = 11^4

 =146.41
