In the equation 0.75s-5/8 = 44, how do you combine the like terms?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given equation, the "like terms" are the constants 5/8 and 44.

It simplifies the math if we eliminate the fractions first.  Note that 0.75 = 6/8, so now we have:

8(6/8)s - 8(5/8) = 44).

Multiplying all three terms by 8 (above) yields

8(6s) - 8(5) = 8(44), or

48s              = 8(44 + 5), or 48s = 8(49)

Dividing both sides by 48 yields s:   s = 8(49/48)

Review "like terms:"  These are terms that have at least one characteristic in common.  5/8 and 44 are like terms because they are only constants (no variables are present).  We must add 5/8 and 44.   0.75s does not have a "like term" in the given equation.

Which coefficient matrix represents a system of linear equations that has a unique solution ?
finlep [7]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a coefficient matrix along and not the solution matrix

Since solution matrix is not given we cannot check for infinity solutions.

But we can check whether coefficient matrix is 0 or not

If coefficient matrix is zero, the system is inconsistent and hence no solution.

Option A)

|A|=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&2&6\\2&1&3\\-2&3&-4\end{array}\right] =0

since II row is a multiple of I row

Hence no solution or infinite

OPtion B

|B|=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&0&-2\\-7&1&5\\4&-2&0\end{array}\right] \\=2(10)-2(10)=0

Hence no solution or infinite

Option C

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&0&-2\\-2&0&6\\1&-2&0\end{array}\right] \\=2(36-2)=68

Hence there will be a unique solution

Option D

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&10&5\\4&1&4\\-1&-2&-1\end{array}\right] \\=2(10)-2(10)=0=0

(since I row is -5 times III row)

Hence there will be no or infinite solution

Option C is the correct answer

Triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle in which side
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

It is given that triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle.

From the below figure it is clear that the vertices of triangle are A(-2,-4), B(2,-1) and C(3,-4).

Distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Using this formula, we get

AB=\sqrt{(2-(-2))^2+(-1-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{16+9}=5

BC=\sqrt{(3-2)^2+(-4-(-1))^2}=\sqrt{1+9}=\sqrt{10}

AC=\sqrt{(3-(-2))^2+(-4-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{25}=5

Now,

Perimeter of triangle ABC = AB + BC + AC

                        =5+\sqrt{10}+5

                        =10+\sqrt{10}

So, perimeter of triangle ABC is 10+\sqrt{10} units.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
