Answer: slope = -1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,0) and (32,-5)

Slope (m) = (y-y)/(x-x)

m = (-5-0)/(32-2)

m = -5/30 (simplify) -1/6

David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9. Frances gets ?80 more than David. Explain how you know Egil gets ?80.

Natalija [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9.

Let 2x, 7x and 9x be the amounts of money that David, Agil and Frances get respectively.

We are told that Frances gets $80 more than David. So we can write this information in an equation as:

$9x=2x+80$

Now let us solve for x.

$9x-2x=80$

$7x=80$

$x=\frac{80}{7}$

Now let us substitute $x=\frac{80}{7}$ in 7x (amount of money that Egil gets).

$\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=7\cdot \frac{80}{7}$

Upon cancelling out 7 from numerator and denominator we will get,

$\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=80$

Therefore, Egil will get $80.

Given: A, B, and C What is the value of X in the matrix equation AX + B = C?

Ksju [112]

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is, AX + B = C

$A=\begin{bmatrix}-3 & -4\\ 1 & 0\end{bmatrix}$

$B=\begin{bmatrix}-7 & -9\\ 4 & -1\end{bmatrix}$

$C=\begin{bmatrix}-42 & -20\\ 5 & 4\end{bmatrix}$

AX + B = C

AX = C - B

C - B = $\begin{bmatrix}-42 & -20\\ 5 & 4\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}-7 & -9\\ 4 & -1\end{bmatrix}$ = $\begin{bmatrix}-42+7 & -20+9\\ 5-4 & 4+1\end{bmatrix}$

C - B = $\begin{bmatrix}-35 & -11\\ 1 & 5\end{bmatrix}$

Let $X=\begin{bmatrix}a & b\\ c & d\end{bmatrix}$

AX = $\begin{bmatrix}-3 & -4\\ 1 & 0\end{bmatrix}\times \begin{bmatrix}a & b\\ c & d\end{bmatrix}$

= $\begin{bmatrix}(-3a-4c) & (-3b-4d)\\ a & b\end{bmatrix}$

Since AX = C - B

$\begin{bmatrix}(-3a-4c) & (-3b-4d)\\ a & b\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-35 & -11\\ 1 & 5\end{bmatrix}$

Therefore, a = 1, b = 5

(-3a - 4c) = -35

3(1) + 4c = 35

3 + 4c = 35

4c = 32

c = 8

And (-3b - 4d) = -11

3(5) + 4d = 11

4d = -4

d = -1

Therefore, Option (2). X = $\begin{bmatrix}1 & 5\\ 8 & -1\end{bmatrix}$ will be the answer.

Hello! Please help. <br> "Find the error & explain why it is wrong."

mixas84 [53]

Answer: Step E

Step-by-step explanation:

The error is in the last step. In Step D, we see that we're supposed to subtract the second part from the first part. We also see we have the terms 2x-8 in the numerator on the right. Since we're subtracting, the expression should actually be -2x +8. 3 -2x +8 should be -2x +11 which is not the numerator in Step E so the last step is wrong.
