<u>Answer:</u>
The length of a paper clip chain is directly proportional to the number of paper clips. If a chain with 65 paper clips has a length of 97.5 inches then the length of chain with 14 paper clips is 21 inches.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that the length of a paper clip chain is directly proportional to the number of paper clips. Directly propotional means when the length of paper clip increases, then the number of paper clips also increases in same ratio.
Hence, by above definition, we get
------- eqn 1
From question, for a chain with 65 paper clips has a length of 97.5 inches, we get
Similarly, for a chain with 14 paper clips with length to be found, we get
Now by using eqn 1, we can calculate the length of 14 paper clips is,
Rearranging the terms we get,
Hence the length of chain with 14 paper clips is 21 inches.
Check the picture below.
so, hmmm notice, since i² = -1 and i⁴ = 1, whenever the exponent is only divisible by 2, the value will be -1, and whenever the exponent is divisible by 4, we end up with a +1, so every subsequent even exponent is simply cancelling the previous value, if we take that to the even value of 100, which has 50 pairs of those, we end up with, yeap, you guessed it, 0.
The value of -7² is less than zero which is the correct answer would be an option (D)
<h3>What is the fraction?</h3>
A fraction is defined as a numerical representation of a part of a whole that represents a rational number.
<h3>What are Arithmetic operations?</h3>
Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions.
* Multiplication operation: Multiplies values on either side of the operator
For example 4*2 = 8
To determine the value is less than zero
Option A: (-6)² ⇒ 36
So this value is greater than zero
Option B: 1/3 × 2 ⇒ 2/3
So this value is greater than zero
Option C: 0.5² ⇒ 0.25
So this value is greater than zero
Option D: -7² ⇒ -49
So this value is less than zero

Answer: Choice B</h3>
With matrix subtraction, you simply subtract the corresponding values.
I like to think of it as if you had 2 buses. Each bus is a rectangle array of seats. Each seat would be a box where there's a number inside. Each seat is also labeled in a way so you can find it very quickly (eg: "seat C1" for row C, 1st seat on the very left). The rule is that you can only subtract values that are in the same seat between the two buses.
So in this case, we subtract the first upper left corner values 14 and 15 to get 14-15 = -1. The only answer that has this is choice B. So we can stop here if needed.
If we kept going then the other values would be...
row1,column2: P-R = -33-16 = -49
row1,column3: P-R = 28-(-24) = 52
row2,column1: P-R = 42-25 = 17
row2,column2: P-R = 35-(-30) = 65
row2,column3: P-R = -19-36 = -55
The values in bold correspond to the proper values shown in choice B.
As you can probably guess by now, matrix addition and subtraction is only possible if the two matrices are the same size (same number of rows, same number of columns). The matrices don't have to be square.
