What is "a" if B=
is a singular matrix

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the matrix

[tex]B=\begin{pmatrix}1\:&\:2\:\\ \:\:\:2\:&\:a\end{pmatrix}[/tex]

A matrix is singular if its determinent is zero.

so solving the matrix B by taking its determinant to get the value a

[tex]\det \begin{pmatrix}1&2\\ 2&a\end{pmatrix}=0[/tex]

as according to determinant formula

[tex]\det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}\:=\:ad-bc[/tex]

 [tex]1\cdot \:a-2\cdot \:2=0[/tex]    

  [tex]a-4=0[/tex]

   [tex]a=4[/tex]          

Therefore, the value of a=4

An architect makes 14455.32 a year. If they get paid weekly, how much do they get each paycheck? Round to the nearest cent

Answers

Answer: $277.99

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 weeks in a year. Assuming the architect would get paid every week, you would divide their salary by 52.

14,455.32/52 = 277.9869

Rounding to two decimal places, the answer would be $277.99.

Answer:

301.15

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply 12 by 4. 12 months 4 weeks in each. You get 48 then you divide 14455.32 and you get 301.15.

Use the dot plot to find the MEAN.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: To find the mean of the dot plot, you will need to add all of the dots together.

For example: Above 2, there are 3 dots , so you would need to multiply 2 by three to get 6 dots above the number 2.

Do that for all of the numbers on the dot graph from 1 - 6, and you will have this equation:

1 + 6 + 18 + 20 + 15 + 12

Next, you will need to add all those numbers together and you will get 72.

Lastly, divide by how many numbers there are, and there are 6 numbers.

So, that will be 72/6 which is 12.

Your answer will be 12.

A farmer has a rectangular plot of land. There is a bother identical plot of land 100 yards east and 100 yards north. Find the combined area of the two plots of land

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangular plot = Length × width

With the aid of the diagram attached below.

For plot 1:

The area = ( 60 - 20 ) × ( 80 - 20 )

Area = 40 × 60

Area = 2400 sq yard

For plot 2:

Area = (160 - 120 ) × ( 180 - 120 )

Area = 40 × 60

Area = 2400 sq yard

Therefore, the combined area of the two plots of land = 2400 + 2400

= 4800 square yards

K. 116°

Answers

Answer:

J. 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

m<EDF = 180 - 148 = 32° (angles on a straight)

m<EFD = 180 - 140 = 40°(Angles in a straight line)

m<DEF = 180 - (m<EDF + m<EFD) (sum of triangle)

m<DEF = 180 - (32 + 40)

m<DEF = 180 - 72

m<DEF = 108°

A new LED light bulb uses 10 watts of power. Since energy = power × time , then the energy used for this light bulb can be found my multiplying the power times the time the bulb is lit. If the bulb is lit for one hour, the energy used will be 10 watt*hours or 10 Wh. If three 10 watt bulbs in one room are kept on for 5 hours, how many watt*hours of energy are used?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  150 Wh

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the energy per bulb is 10 Wh per hour, so the total energy used by 3 bulbs in 5 hours is ...

  (10 Wh/(bulb·hour))×(3 bulbs)×(5 hours) = 10·3·5 Wh = 150 Wh

What is the measure of angle x?

Answers

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the measure of each interior angle of the octagon.

Measure of each interior angle of the octagon = [tex] \frac{(n - 2)180}{n} [/tex]

Where, n = 8.

Plug in the value of n into the formula

[tex] = \frac{(8 - 2)180}{8} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{(6)180}{8} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{1,080}{8} = 135 [/tex]

x = 180 - 135 (straight line theorem.)

x = 45°

Answer:

$0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

1 quart = 2 pints

Write a proportion:

$1.80 / 4 pint = x / 2 pint

Cross multiply:

4x = 3.60

Divide:

x = 0.90

The price per quart is $0.90.

Answer:

4-quart carton of fruit punch for $2.08

Step-by-step explanation:

4-quart carton of fruit punch for $2.08

2.08 : 4 = 0.52

check your work:  0.52 x 4 = 2.08

so for the first offer you will be paying $0.52 per quart .

4-cup carton of fruit punch for $0.80

1 cup = 0.25 quarts

4 cups = 1 quart

0.80 : 1 = 0.80

for the second offer you will be paying $0.80 per quart of fruit punch. 4-quart carton of fruit punch for $2.08 is a better buy because you will be paying for each quart than in first offer.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) h/2

  b) r/√2 = (r√2)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The volume of a cone is proportional to height. If the volume is halved, then the height will be halved.

The new height will be h/2.

__

b) The volume is proportional to the square of the radius. If the volume is halved, the square of the radius is halved. The new radius will be ...

  (r')² = r²/2

  r' = r/√2 = (r√2)/2 . . . radius of half-volume cone

solve cos(2x + 30) = 0.5 for -180≤x≤180​

Answers

Answer:

x = 15°

x = 135°

x = -45°

x = -180°

Step-by-step explanation:

Trigonometric Equations

Solve

cos(2x + 30°) = 0.5 for -180° ≤ x ≤ 180°

Applying the inverse cosine function:

2x + 30° = arccos(0.5)

There are several angles whose cosine is 0.5. They are 60°, 300°, -60° and -300°, thus we have these candidate solutions:

2x + 30° = 60°

2x + 30° = 300°

2x + 30° = -60°

2x + 30° = -300°

Subtracting 30° to all the equations:

2x = 60° - 30° = 30°

2x = 300° - 30° = 270°

2x = -60° - 30° = -90°

2x = -60° - 300° = -360°

Dividing by 2 we have the complete set of solutions:

x = 15°

x = 135°

x = -45°

x = -180°

Which inequality has the graph shown below?
Answers above ^

Answers

Answer:

The inequality the graph has shown is y < 2x - 3 ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

m is the slope of the lineb is the y-intercept

From the given figure

∵ The line drawn is a dashed line

→ That means the sign of inequality without the equal sign

The sign of the inequality is without the equal sign

∵ The shaded area is under the line

→ That means the sign of the inequality is smaller than

∴ The sign of the inequality is <

∵ The line intersects the y-axis at point (0, -3)

→ That means the y-intercept is -3

The y-intercept = -3 ⇒ (value of b in the equation of the line)

∵ There is only one answer has sigh < and y-intercept -3

The inequality the graph has shown is y < 2x - 3

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{20} x + 20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope equation is always [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]. In this case, the gallons went down by 1- so we can call the rise -1. When it went down by 1, the miles went up by 20- so we can call the run 20. This gives us a fraction (the "m" value) to put in the slope equation [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]. To find the y intercept (the "b" value), you find out what y is when x = 0, which is given in the chart: 20.
