Suppose Ax = b always has at least one solution no matter what b is. Why AT y = 0 has only the trivial solution y = 0?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

For the first equation we have:

A*x = b

solving for x, we get:

x = b/A

If it always has a solution, then we can not have A = 0, because that causes an undefined operation.

so for example, if we have A = 1 and b = 2

x = b/A = 2/1

For the other case,

A*y = 0

dividing both sides by A

y = 0/A = 0

y = 0

Here we have only one possible solution, the trivial one, y = 0.

And the dependence on A disappears (because the quotient between zero and a number different than zero is always zero)

A department store holds a year-end clearance sale that includes a 5.5% discount on cosmetics. Find the sale price of a bottle of perfume if its original price was $48.41.

Answers

Answer:

Sale price = $45.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = $48.41

Percentage Discount = 5.5%

Amount of discount = Percentage Discount × Original price

= 5.5% × $48.41

= 5.5/100 × $48.41

= 0.055 × $48.41

= $2.66255

Sale price = Original price - Amount of discount

= $48.41 - $2.66255

= $45.74745

Approximately,

Sale price = $45.75

The solution for the given equation.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\dfrac{\sqrt{2x}}{\sqrt{x-1}}=2[/tex]

On simplification, we get

[tex]\sqrt{2x}=2\sqrt{x-1}[/tex]

Squaring both sides, we get

The sales tax rate for the state of Washington was 7.6%.

What is the state sales tax on a $5,300 car in WashingtoN

What is the final cost of the car, including tax?

Answers

Answer:

Sales tax: 402.80 Final cost: 5,702.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales price x sales tax rate = sales tax

5300 x .076 (7.6%) = 402.80

Sales price + tax = final cost

5300 + 402.80 = 5702.80

Answers

Answer:

x ≈ 2.0794

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]e^{x}[/tex] = 8 ( take ln of both sides )

ln [tex]e^{x}[/tex] = ln 8

x lne = ln 8 [ lne = 1 ]

x = ln 8 ≈ 2.0794 ( to 4 dec. places )

Answer:

x ≈ 2.0794

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \small \sf \: e {}^{x} = 8[/tex]

Take the natural logarithm of both side of equation

[tex]\small \sf \: In ( e {}^{x} ) = In ( 8 )[/tex]

[tex] \small \sf \: Use \: In(e {}^{x} ) = x \: to \: simplify \: the \: expression.[/tex]

x = In( 8 )

Write the number in exponential form.

x = In(2³)

Tickets to a football final are selling well. On Thursday, 47 of the tickets are sold. On Friday, 14 of the tickets are sold. What fraction of tickets are available to sell on Saturday?

Answers

The question seems incomplete ; as the total number of tickets to be sold isn't given.

Answer:

61 / X

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the total Number of tickets to be sold as : X

Number of tickets sold on Thursday = 47

Number sold on Friday = 14

Fraction of tickets available for sale on Saturday :

(Total number of tickets already sold) / Total number of tickets to be sold

(Thursday + Friday sales) / total number of tickets to be sold

Fraction available for sale on Saturday = (47+14) / X

Fraction available for sale on Saturday = 61 / X

Kindly put value of x = total number of tickets available for sale to get the exact fraction.

Annie invests $400 in a bank that offers 5.5% simple annual interest after 6 years her investment will increase by blank dollars

Answers

Answer:

Her investment will increase by 551.54 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the exponential function formula is f(x)=a(1+r)^x

So knowing that we can input values

So now we have f(x)=400(1+0.055)^6

Since it is annual we will only have the interest yearly so that changes are equation to look like this f(x)=400(1+0.055/1)^6

So next we have to add 1 and 0.055 which is 1.055

So we input that into the equation so now we have f(x)=400(1.055/1)^6

Now we have to do (1.055/1) to the power of six, so we get 1.37884280676

Now we have to 1.37884280676 times 400,  which would be 551.537122705.

Assuming they want to the nearest 100th it would be 551.54

So the answer is 551.54 dollars

A bag contains 6 black tiles, 5 white tiles, and 4 blue tiles. Event A is defined as drawing a white tile from the bag on the first draw, and event B is defined as drawing a black tile on the second draw. If two tiles are drawn from the bag, one after the other without replacement, what is P(A and B) expressed in simplest form? A. 4/45 B. 1/7 C. 4/15 D. 5/14

Answers

Answer:

5/14

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 tiles in total

5 white| 6 black | 4 blue

event A results in the subject pulling a white tile and not replacing it

5-1= 4

so the first answer should be 4/15

event B results in the subject pulling another tile, a black one and not replacing it.

6-1= 5

given this answer, there is one less tile in the total, since we removed another tile.

So our answer would be-

hi, it's 16 because:

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem: In a circle, if a radius is perpendicular to a chord, then the radius is the perpendicular bisector of the chord.

In this case, the radius containing points O and B is perpendicular to chord AC, so the radius bisects chord AC making AB = BC.

Also,

AB + BC = AC

By substitution, we have

AB + AB = AC

AC = 2AB

AC = 2(8)

AC = 16

What is the image of (-6, -2) after a dilation by a scale factor of 4 centered at the origin?​

Answers

The image of the point (-6, -2) after dilation by a scale factor of 4 centered at the origin is (-24, -8).

What is a scale factor?

A scale factor is defined as the ratio between the scale of a given original object and a new object,

We have,

To find the image of the point (-6, -2) after dilation by a scale factor of 4 centered at the origin, we can use the following formula:

(x', y') = (kx, ky)

where (x, y) are the coordinates of the original point, (x', y') are the coordinates of the image after dilation, k is the scale factor, and (0, 0) is the center of dilation.

Substituting the values given in the problem, we get:

(x', y') = (4*(-6), 4*(-2))

Simplifying,

(x', y') = (-24, -8)

Therefore,

The image of the point (-6, -2) after dilation by a scale factor of 4 centered at the origin is (-24, -8).
