Can someone explain how the following Matrix can be multiplied? I thought the column of the first matrix had to match the row of

the second and the row of the first had to match the column of the second. I how the matrices listed below as (1x3) and (3x3) respectively. Yet my online Pre-cal course says it's possible. Please explain why this is so.

You are correct in thinking that the columns of the first matrix must match with the rows of the second matrix.

So for example, we can multiply a 1 x 5 matrix with a 5 x 7 matrix. The two matching '5's are directly what make multiplication possible in this case. For your problem, the first two '3's match and multiplication is possible.

The rows of the first matrix don't need to match with the columns of the second matrix.

the distance around a track is 400m. if you take 14 laps around the track what is the total distance you walk? use mental math
Olegator [25]

to do it in mental math: you can ignore the zeroes in 400 for now.

4*14 = 4*10 + 4*4 = 40 + 16 = 56

now add the zeroes back on: 5600m

26. Law of sines, please give a step by step explanation
Stels [109]

Answer:

  174.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be helpful to draw a diagram of the triangle we're concerned with. (See attached.)

We know the angle at the end of the shadow inside the triangle is 52°-22° = 30°. We assume the tree is growing straight up out of the hillside, so its angle with the hill inside the triangle is 90°+22° = 112°. Then the remaining angle between the shadow and the tree at the top of the tree is ...

  180° -30° -112° = 38°

Now, we have the angle opposite the tree, and the angle opposite the known side length of the triangle (215 feet along the hill, AC in the diagram). This is enough information to usefully use the Law of Sines.

  c/sin(C) = a/sin(A)

  c = a(sin(C)/sin(A)) = (215 ft)(sin(30°)/sin(38°)) ≈ 174.6 ft

The height of the tree is about 174.6 feet.

1.A five - layer of cake weighs half a kilogram per layer.In each layer,the cake is decorated with icing which weighs 15g.3 cand
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:  2.815 kilograms

======================================================

Work Shown:

1 layer = 0.5 kg

5 layers = 5*(0.5 kg) = 2.5 kg

icing = 15 g = 15/1000 = 0.015 kg

1 candle = 100 g = 100/1000 = 0.1 kg

3 candles = 3*(0.1 kg) = 0.3 kg

------------------------

The five layers combine to 2.5 kg. On top of that we have 0.015 kg of icing, and then finally the three candles add 0.3 kg more weight.

The total weight is therefore: 2.5+0.015+0.3 = 2.815 kilograms
