This is the same as showing the following system of equations doesn't have a solution:

\begin{cases}-2c_1-3c_2+c_3 = 0 \\ 9c_1 + 2c_2 + 7c_3 = 5 \\ 6c_1 + c_2 + 5c_3 = 4\end{cases}

or in matrix form,

\begin{bmatrix}-2&9&6\\-3&2&1\\1&7&5\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}c_1\\c_2\\c_3\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}0\\5\\4\end{bmatrix}

The quickest way to check if there is a solution is to check whether the coefficient matrix is invertible. If its determinant is 0, then it is not invertible.

And the quickest way to show that the determinant is 0 is by observing that the third row is a linear combination of the first two rows:

(-2, 9, 6) - (-3, 2, 1) = (-2 + 3, 9 - 2, 6 - 1) = (1, 7, 5)

So there are indeed no such scalars <em>c₁</em>, <em>c₂</em>, and <em>c₃</em>.

What is the best estimate for 34 times 57
daser333 [38]
It would be 1,800 because when you round 34 it becomes 30 and when you round 57 becomes 60 and 30 x 60 = 1,800. This helps me round remember "4 or less let it rest, 5 or more raise the score" hope that makes rounding easier!!

Velma must make five bottles of lemonade for the kids playing outside. Each bottle requires 3⁄4 cup of sugar. How much sugar doe
Ket [755]
The total number of cups of sugar needed will be given by:
Total amount=(number of bottles)×(number of cups of sugar per box)
number of bottles to be made is 5 bottles
number of cups per box is 3/4
thus the total number of cups required will be:
Total amount=3/4×5=3 3/4 cups
