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>.

A 96 inch stick breaks into two pieces in the ratio of 3:5. How big is each piece?
Svetlanka [38]
40 cm.

let the length of the first part be 3x, second part be 4x, third part be 5x.

where x is a positive length in cm.

why 3x,4x and 5x ?

so that the ratio of lengths of the 3 parts be 3:4:5.

total length of the stick = 3x + 4x + 5x = 12x=96cm

so x=96/12 = 8cm

therefore the largest part of the stick (5x)= 5*8 =40cm

Find the X Intercepts y=x^2-3x+6<br> PLEASE HELP ME
Nat2105 [25]

The x intrercepts is where the function crosses the x axis; In other words, it is where the output of the function is 0.

In a quadratic, you can start by factoring, if it’s unable to be factored then use the quadratic formula. Also, it is good to use the discriminate.

D= Discrimminate

D>0 2 real solutions

D=0 1 real solution

D<0 2 imaginary solutions.

The discrimminate is the equation/expression under the radical of the quadratic formula. With this formula, it’s not factorable. Using the discriminate it is also seen, as you’ll get a negative in the square root. This is imagenary because you cannot take the root of a negative value, which is why “i” is used to represent the square root of negative one.

Evaluate the expression 9x , when x= 4, 7, and 2.5<br> I need help ;-; pls
Otrada [13]

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = 4,

<em> </em>

9x = 9 \times 4 = 36

when x = 7

9x = 9 \times 7 = 6 3

9x = 9 \times 2.5 = 22 .5
