-256.
how? 8 times 8 times 8 is 512.
512/2 is 256. But two negatives make a positive. So, it's -256.
Answer:
1. The matrix A isn't the inverse of matrix B.
2. |B|=12, |A|=12
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We want to know if matrix A is the inverse of matrix B, this means that if you do the product between B and A you have to obtain the identity matrix.
We have:
![A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-2\\-1&3\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D4%26-2%5C%5C-1%263%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
and
![B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&2\\1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=B%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3%262%5C%5C1%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
A and B are 2×2 matrices (2 rows and 2 columns), if you multiply them you have to obtain a 2×2 matrix.
Then if A is the inverse of B:

Where,
![I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=I%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Observation:
If you have two matrices:
![A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]\\and\\B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}e&f\\g&h\end{array}\right]\\\\\\A.B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}(a.e+b.g)&(a.f+b.h)\\(c.e+d.g)&(c.f+d.h)\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Da%26b%5C%5Cc%26d%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5C%5Cand%5C%5CB%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7De%26f%5C%5Cg%26h%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CA.B%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D%28a.e%2Bb.g%29%26%28a.f%2Bb.h%29%5C%5C%28c.e%2Bd.g%29%26%28c.f%2Bd.h%29%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Now:
![B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&2\\1&4\end{array}\right].\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-2\\-1&3\end{array}\right]\\\\\\B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4.3+(-2).1&4.2+(-2).4\\(-1).3+3.1&(-1).2+3.4\end{array}\right]\\\\\\B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}12-2&8-8\\-3+3&-2+12\end{array}\right]\\\\\\B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&0\\0&10\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=B.A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3%262%5C%5C1%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D.%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D4%26-2%5C%5C-1%263%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CB.A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D4.3%2B%28-2%29.1%264.2%2B%28-2%29.4%5C%5C%28-1%29.3%2B3.1%26%28-1%29.2%2B3.4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CB.A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D12-2%268-8%5C%5C-3%2B3%26-2%2B12%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CB.A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D10%260%5C%5C0%2610%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
![B.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&0\\0&10\end{array}\right]\neq \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]=I\\\\\\B.A\neq I](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=B.A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D10%260%5C%5C0%2610%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cneq%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%3DI%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CB.A%5Cneq%20I)
Then, the matrix A isn't the inverse of matrix B.
2. If you have a matrix A:
![A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Da%26b%5C%5Cc%26d%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The determinant of the matrix is:

Then the determinant of B is:
![B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&2\\1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=B%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3%262%5C%5C1%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)


The determinant of A is:
![A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-2\\-1&3\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D4%26-2%5C%5C-1%263%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)


The answer is <span>25; it represents the hourly wage for the worker
</span>
<span> y = 8x + 25
x is hours
y depends on x hours so y-intercept represent the hourly wage.
The y-intercept is y when x = 0:
y = 8x + 25
x = 0
____
y = 8 * 0 + 25
y = 0 + 25
y = 25</span>
Hello :
look : x-intercept
f(x) = 0 has :
1) one solution
2) two solutions
3) no solutions
Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to divide the total amount of tables by the amount of students:
40 / 10 = 4
So, we need 4 tables to seat 40 students.
Hope this helps!
