Thaddeus shakes his head as he pays $12.37 to the clerk for lunch. Complaining to a friend, Thaddeus says, “Do you realize that

is 0.2% of my monthly income?” His friend replies, “I think you made a mistake. That should be 2%. You messed up on the decimal point.” (a) Assuming Thaddeus is not wrong, what is his monthly income? (b) If Thaddeus’ friend is correct, what is Thaddeus’ monthly income?

Pretty simple question, just set up the equation.
A) say Thad is right then equation is as follows:
X * 0.002 = 12.37
Where X is monthly income.
So to solve for X just divide 12.37 by 0.002 (0.2%)
6185$ per month. Which no offense to Thad, but means he’s probably some kind of software engineer or investment banker if he’s making that much a month. (Unlikely for Thad)

B) if he’s wrong then just set up again
X * 0.02 = 12.37
Where x = monthly income
So x= $618.5
More likely given he’s complaining about a 12$ lunch when inflation has the yelp one ($) sign restaurants charging 15 or 16 just for a meal with tip and tax.
Anyways my rant aside hope this helps.

1) B. Which method of finding the distance is<br><br> the best? Explain
sveticcg [70]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Distance is the numerical measurement to find the space or interval between two objects. Distance also refers to physical length. Point x to point y  distance is denoted as |xy|

There are many ways to find out the distance, distance between two objects or two points. The efficient way of finding the distance between two points is given below. Mathematically, the distance between two points on a coordinate plane can be determined by using the distance formula, which is:

                                                 d =√((x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2),

Where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) coordinates, and d is the distance.

The middle point between these two points is known as midpoint and can find out by using the formula

Midpoint = a + b /2.

The distance between two points number line can also be calculated by using the formula:

AB =|b –a| or |a-b|.

Let {v1,v2,v3} be a set of vectors in Rn . If u is Span {v1,v2,v3}, show that 3u is in Span {v1,v2,v3}.(Hint: since you are told
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the hint. The statement of the hint holds true, as the linear span of a set of vectors T is equal to the set of linear combinations of vectors in T.

Denote the linear span of vectors with the curly brackets < >, that is, span\{v_1,v_2,v_3\}:=

Let u\in, then u is a linear combination of v1,v2,v3, that is, there exist scalars c_1,c_2,c_3\in \mathbb{R} such that u=c_1v_1+c_2v_2+c_3v_3. Multiply by 3 in both sides to get 3u=3c_1v_1+3c_2v_2+3c_3v_3=d_1v_1+d_2v_2+d_3v_3, with d_i=3c_i,i=1,2,3

Since c_1,c_2,c_3\in \mathbb{R}, d_1,d_2,d_3\in \mathbb{R} as real numbers are closed under multiplication. Therefore 3u is a linear combination of the vectors v_1,v_2,v_3, that is, 3u\in
