Answer:
The correct answer is 12 and a half or 13 weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert the values to decimals.
27 1/2 = 27.5
2 1/4 = 2.25
Then, divide miles of road that need to be repaved by the number of miles that are repaved per week.
27.5/2.25 = 12.2222222222222
Round that up to 12 and a half weeks or 13 weeks.
167.462 is the bigger number
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The inverse of a matrix is the transpose of the cofactor matrix, divided by the determinant. The determinant is (4)(3) -(1)(-5) = 17, eliminating choice B.
In a 2×2 matrix, the transpose of the cofactor matrix swaps the diagonal elements, and negates the off-diagonal elements. That is, the transpose of the cofactor matrix will look like the matrix of B. When that is divided by 17, you get the matrix of answer choice C.
