Answer:

The scale model giraffe is 5 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the artist sculpted the figure of the giraffe with a scale of 1 inch = 4 feet, and that the real giraffe that lives in the zoo is about 20 feet, to determine the size of the sculpted giraffe to scale it is necessary to perform the following calculation:

20/4 = X

5 = X

Thus, the scale sculpted giraffe that will be sold in the gift shop measures 5 inches.

Which system of equations below has infinitely many solutions? y = –3x 4 and y = –3x – 4 y = –3x 4 and 3y = –9x 12 y = –3x 4 and
Flura [38]

the equations y = –3x + 4 and 3y = –9x + 12 have infinitely many solutions. option B is correct.

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Condition for the parallel lines.

L1,  ax + bx + c = 0

L2, dx + ey + f = 0

If \rm \dfrac{a}{d} = \dfrac{b}{e} = \dfrac{c}{f} then lines have infinitely many solutions.

<h3>Which system of equations below has infinitely many solutions?</h3>

y = –3x + 4 and 3y = –9x + 12

On comparing we have

a = -3 , b = 1, and c = 4

d = -9 , e = 3, and f = 12

Then their ratio will be

\rm \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{-3}{-9} = \dfrac{4}{12}\\\\\rm \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{3}

Hence  y = –3x + 4 and 3y = –9x + 12 have infinitely many solutions.

Thus the option B is correct.

A square matrix A is said to be idempotent iff A2 = A. (i) Show that if A is idempotent, then so is I − A. (ii) Show that if A i
muminat

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A is a square matrix and A is idempotent

A^2 = A

Consider I-A

i) (I-A)^2 = (I-A).(I-A)\\= I^2 -2A.I+A^2\\= I-2A+A\\=I-A

It follows that I-A is also idempotent

ii) Consider the matrix 2A-I

(2A-I).(2A-I)=\\4A^2-4AI+I^2\\= 4A-4A+I\\=I

So it follows that 2A-I matrix is its own inverse.
