Answer:

(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the determinant of the given matrix,

A=\begin{bmatrix}(a-1) & (a^2-a+1)\\ (a+1) & (a^2+a+1)\end{bmatrix}

det A = (a - 1)(a² + a + 1) - (a + 1)(a² - a + 1)

         = a(a² + a + 1) - 1(a²+ a + 1) - a(a² - a + 1) - 1(a² - a + 1)

         = a³ + a² + a - a² - a - 1 - a³ + a² - a - a² + a - 1

         = (a³ - a³) + (-a² + a² - a² - a²) - 1 - 1

         = -2

Therefore, determinant of the given matrix is (-2).

8090 [49]

I'll guess the answer is <em>you can tell that pi is an irrational because it has a </em>non-terminating yet non-repeating decimal representation.<em> </em>

Of course it's not clear how we tell this.  We can't know for sure just by looking at the first trillion digits we've figured out whether it repeats or not.  Someone told us it didn't, that's really how we know.

The subject of the formula below is y.<br>a=4x/t - p<br>Rearrange the f make x the subject.​
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

x = t(a+p)/4

Step-by-step explanation

Given the expression

​a=4x/t - p

We are to make x the subject of the formula

a=4x/t - p

Add p to both sides

a+p = 4x/t - p+p

a+p = 4x/t

Cross multiply

t(a+p) = 4x

Rearrange

4x = t(a+p)

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = t(a+p)/4

x = t(a+p)/4
