Answer:
Matrix A is not invertible.
Step-by-step explanation:
Invertible matrix are those matrix which are square matrix or non singular matrix.
For any matrix to be invertible, matrix should be non singular i.e. det(x) 0.
But for the question given above we cannot find determinant of matrix A as it is not square matrix. so inverse of given matrix does not exist. so it is not possible to have non trival solutions.
Answer:
25150
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to see that this is an arithmetic sequence... since to get the next element we add 5 to it. (a geometric sequence would be a multiplication, not an addition)
So, we have a, the first term (a = 4), and we have the difference between each term (d = 5), and we want to find the SUM of the first 100 terms.
To do this without spending hours writing them down, we can use this formula:
If we plug in our values, we have:
S = 50 * (8 + 495) = 50 * 503 = 25150
