((5x2)+5.5+(6x3)+6.5+(7x5)+(7.5x4)+(8x4))/20
137/20
= 6.85
Answer:
m=22.2
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the Pythagorean’s theorem i.e
hypotenuse^2=opposite^2+adjacent^2
Where
Hypotenuse =unknown
Opposite =18
Adjacent =13
Hyp^2=18^2+13^2
Hyp^2=324+169
Hyp^2=493
Hyp=sqrt 493
Hyp=m=22.2
This involves quite a lot of arithmetic to do manually.
The first thing you do is to make the first number in row 2 = to 0.
This is done by R2 = -3/2 R1 + R2
so the matrix becomes
( 2 1 1) ( -3 )
( 0 -13/2 3/2) (1/2 )
(5 -1 2) (-2)
Next step is to make the 5 in row 5 = 0
then the -1 must become zero
You aim for the form
( 1 0 0) (x)
(0 1 0) (y)
(0 0 1) ( z)
x , y and z will be the required solutions.
