 The combined amount of cats sold is 117.

Ratio expresses the relationship between two variables. It shows the frequency of which that one value is contained within another variable.

The ratio of  Siamese cats to house cats = 4 : 9

Number of Siamese cats = 36

Number of combined cats = c

This equation can be formed using the above information:

4/13 x c = 36

4c = 468

c = 468 / 4

c = 117

A square matrix A is said to be idempotent iff A2 = A. (i) Show that if A is idempotent, then so is I − A. (ii) Show that if A i
muminat

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A is a square matrix and A is idempotent

A^2 = A

Consider I-A

i) (I-A)^2 = (I-A).(I-A)\\= I^2 -2A.I+A^2\\= I-2A+A\\=I-A

It follows that I-A is also idempotent

ii) Consider the matrix 2A-I

(2A-I).(2A-I)=\\4A^2-4AI+I^2\\= 4A-4A+I\\=I

So it follows that 2A-I matrix is its own inverse.

The length of a rectangular book is 2 times its width. The perimeter of the book is 42 inches. Write a system of
wel

Answer:

Mark me as brainlist

Step-by-step explanation:

P = Perimeter            

L = Length          

W = Width

Perimeter of rectangle = L + L + W + W        

or P = 2L + 2W

You know:

P = 36 inches

L = 2W          [length is(=) 2 times it's width]

W = ?

P = 2L + 2W    

Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in 2W for L since L = 2W

36 = 2(2W) + 2W         Simplify

36 = 4W + 2W

36 = 6W        Divide 6 on both sides

6 = W              Now that you know the width, you can find the length:

L = 2W

L = 2(6)

L = 12

L = 12 in

W = 6 in

PROOF

P = 2(12) + 2(6)

P = 24 + 12

P = 36
