Answer: 2 2/3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that three runners in a relay race share the 8-mile distance equally.

The number of miles that each runner travel will be the total miles divided by number of runners. This will be:

= 8/3

= 2 2/3 miles

Find the? inverse, if it? exists, for the given matrix. [4 3] [3 6]

True [87]

Answer:

Therefore, the inverse of given matrix is

$=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse of a square matrix $A$ is $A^{-1}$ such that

$A A^{-1}=I$ where I is the identity matrix.

Consider, $A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&3\\3&6\end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{Matrix\:can\:only\:be\:inverted\:if\:it\:is\:non-singular,\:that\:is:}$

$\det \begin{pmatrix}4&3 \\3&6\end{pmatrix}\ne 0$

$\mathrm{Find\:2x2\:matrix\:inverse\:according\:to\:the\:formula}:\quad \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}^{-1}=\frac{1}{\det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}}\begin{pmatrix}d\:&\:-b\:\\ -c\:&\:a\:\end{pmatrix}$

$=\frac{1}{\det \begin{pmatrix}4&3\\ 3&6\end{pmatrix}}\begin{pmatrix}6&-3\\ -3&4\end{pmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:matrix\:determinant\:according\:to\:formula}:\quad \det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}\:=\:ad-bc$

$4\cdot \:6-3\cdot \:3=15$

$=\frac{1}{15}\begin{pmatrix}6&-3\\ -3&4\end{pmatrix}$

$=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}$

Therefore, the inverse of given matrix is

$=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{2}{5}&-\frac{1}{5}\\ -\frac{1}{5}&\frac{4}{15}\end{pmatrix}$

Answer:

C, Linear

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra I

Linear - Proportional relationship y = mx + b
Nonlinear - Any graph that has a degree x higher than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

y = 7x + 14

Step 2: Identify

We see a linear equation (proportional relationship). Therefore, we have a linear equation.
