Answer:

Answer:

x=−27

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

0.4(5x−15)=2.5(x+3)

(0.4)(5x)+(0.4)(−15)=(2.5)(x)+(2.5)(3)(Distribute)

2x+−6=2.5x+7.5

2x−6=2.5x+7.5

Step 2: Subtract 2.5x from both sides.

2x−6−2.5x=2.5x+7.5−2.5x

−0.5x−6=7.5

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

−0.5x−6+6=7.5+6

−0.5x=13.5

Step 4: Divide both sides by -0.5.

−0.5x

−0.5

13.5

−0.5

x=−27

Answer:

x=−27

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: a) -6, b) 32, c) -48, d) 9, e) -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

A and B are 4 × 4 matrices.

Here,

det (A) = -3

det (B) = 2

We need to find the respective parts:

a) det (AB)

$\mid AB\mid=\mid A\mid.\mid B\mid\\\\\mid AB\mid=-3\times 2=-6$

b) det (B⁵ )

$\mid B^5\mid=\mid B\mid ^5=2^5=32$

c) det (2A)

Since we know that

$\mid kA\mid =k^n\mid A\mid$

so, it becomes,

$\mid 2A\mid =2^4\mid A\mid=16\times -3=-48$

d) $\bold{det(A^TA)}$

Since we know that

$\mid A^T\mid=\mid A\mid$

so, it becomes,

$\mid A^TA\mid=\mid A^T\mid \times \mid A\mid=-3\times -3=9$

e) det (B⁻¹AB)

As we know that

$\mid B^{-1}\mid =\mid B\mid$

so, it becomes,

$\mid B^{-1}AB}\mid =\mid B^{-1}.\mid \mid A\mid.\mid B\mid=2\times -3\times 2=-12$

Hence, a) -6, b) 32, c) -48, d) 9, e) -12

While visiting a memorial, a person approximated the angle of elevation to the top of the memorial to be 35º. After walking 255

Alenkasestr [34]

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown in the figure below.

Let h the height of the hill. =

At position A, the angle of elevation is 40°, and the horizontal distance to the foot of the hill is x.

By definition,

tan(40°) = h/x h = x tan40 = 0.8391x

(1)

At position B, Joe is (x - 450) ft from the foot of the hill. His angle of elevation is

40 + 18 = 58°.

By definition, tan(58°) = h/(x - 450)

h = (x - 450) tan(58°) = 1.6003(x-450)

h = 1.6003x - 720.135 (2)

Equate (1) and (2).

1.6003x - 720.135 = 0.8391x 0.7612x = 720.135

x = 946.0523

From (1), obtain

h = 0.8391*946.0523 = 793.8 ft

Answer: The height of the hill is approximately 794 ft (nearest integer)
