What is square matrix?

A square matrix is a matrix that has the same number of rows and columns. That is, a matrix A is square if A has dimensions n x n, where n is a positive integer.

To create an augmented matrix, we need to represent the system of equations in matrix form. Let x be the number of months it will take Chris to pay off the total purchase price of the mattress using monthly payments and savings. Then the system of equations is:

1399/18 + 78x = 1399

50x + 250 = 1399

The first equation represents the fact that the total price of the mattress must be paid off in 18 months using monthly payments, and the second equation represents the fact that Chris sets aside $50 each month in savings to put towards the purchase.

Rewriting the equations in matrix form, we get:

[1 78/1399 | 1]

[50 1 | 1149/1399]

This is the augmented matrix for the system of equations, where the leftmost columns represent the coefficients of the variables (1 for x in the first equation, 50 for x in the second equation, and 78/1399 for the monthly payment in the first equation), and the rightmost column represents the constants on the right-hand side of each equation.

Answer: x = -1 and x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve this equation step by step

1. Simplify both sides of the equation

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 25

2. Subtract 25 from both sides

x^2 - 8x + 16 - 25 = 25 - 25

3. Factor the left side of the equation

(x + 1) (x - 9) = 0

4. Set the factors equal to zero

x + 1 = 0 or x - 9 = 0

Thus your answers are x = -1 and x = 9

You can check by inputting the values into the original equation

(-1 - 4)^2 = 25 and (9 - 4)^2 = 25

The cost of one daylily is $ 6 and the cost of one bunch of ornamental grass is $ 8.  

A system of equations is a set of two or more equations that are to be solved simultaneously. Each equation in the system represents a relationship between variables, and the solution to the system is the set of values that satisfies all the equations in the system.

Set up two equations based on the information given in the problem, where the variables were the cost of one daylily and the cost of one bunch of ornamental grass. Use the substitution method to solve for variables.

Here we have

DeShawn spent $80 on 1 daylily and 12 bunches of ornamental grass.

Ndiba spent $52 on 5 daylilies and 2 bunches of ornamental grass.

Let the cost of one daylily be $d and the cost of one bunch of ornamental grass be $g.

From the problem,

We can set up a system of equations based on the information given:

DeShawn's purchase: 1d + 12g = 80 ---- (1)

Ndiba's purchase: 5d + 2g = 52 --- (2)

We can solve this system of equations using substitution or elimination.

Here, we will use substitution:

Solving for d in terms of g from Deshawn's equation:

1d = 80 - 12g --- (3)

Substituting into Ndiba's equation:

=> 5(80 - 12g) + 2g = 52

=> 400 - 60g + 2g = 52

=> - 58g = - 348

=>  g = 6

From (3)

1d = 80 - 12(6)

1d = 80 - 72

d = 8

Therefore,

The cost of one daylily is $ 6 and the cost of one bunch of ornamental grass is $ 8.

The probability that a person phones the cable company and waits between 10 to 20 minutes for service is approximately 0.0729, or about 7.29%.

What is the mean and standard deviation?

The standard deviation is a summary measure of the differences of each observation from the mean. If the differences themselves were added up, the positive would exactly balance the negative and so their sum would be zero. Consequently, the squares of the differences are added.

We can start by standardizing the values using the z-score formula:

z = (x - μ) / σ

where:

x = the wait time in minutes

μ = the population mean (average wait time of 28 minutes)

σ = the population standard deviation (5.5 minutes)

For x = 10 minutes:

z = (10 - 28) / 5.5 = -3.27

For x = 20 minutes:

z = (20 - 28) / 5.5 = -1.45

Next, we can use a standard normal distribution table (or a calculator or software) to find the area under the standard normal curve between these two z-scores.

Using a standard normal distribution table, we can find that the area to the left of z = -1.45 is 0.0735, and the area to the left of z = -3.27 is 0.0006. Therefore, the area between z = -3.27 and z = -1.45 is:

0.0735 - 0.0006 = 0.0729

Hence, the probability that a person phones the cable company and waits between 10 to 20 minutes for service is approximately 0.0729, or about 7.29%.

Answer:

a) The distance from Springton to Watworth is 200 km. Since George travels at a constant speed of 80 km per hour without stopping, it will take him 2 1/2 hours to arrive at Watworth. Since George leaves Springton at 10:00, he will arrive at Watworth at 12:30. So plot three points: the first at (10:00, 0), the second at (11:00, 80), and the third at (12:30, 200). Draw a line connecting the three points.

b) Karen arrived at Watworth at 13:50. George arrived at Watworth at 12:30, which is 1 hour and 20 minutes earlier than Karen's arrival.

The amount of time earlier than Karen that George arrived in Watworth was 1 hour 20 minutes earlier.

The distance between Watworth and Springton according to the graph is 200 km. This means that George covered this distance in:

= 200 / 80

= 2.5 hours

He arrived at :

= 10 + 2.5 hours

= 12 : 30 am

The difference was :

= 13: 50 arrival of Karen - 12 : 30

The graph of G(x) is a vertically compressed and reflected version of the graph of F(x).

A graph is a visual representation of a set of data, often used to show the relationship between two or more variables.

The function G(x) = -1/4 (x+7)² is a vertical compression and reflection of the function F(x) = x².

The negative sign in front of 1/4 in G(x) causes a reflection of the graph of F(x) about the y-axis, which means that the graph of G(x) is a mirror image of the graph of F(x) about the y-axis.

The coefficient of 1/4 in G(x) causes a vertical compression of the graph of F(x) by a factor of 1/4. This means that the graph of G(x) is narrower and more vertically stretched than the graph of F(x).

Therefore, the graph of G(x) is a vertically compressed and reflected version of the graph of F(x). In other words, G(x) is a transformation of F(x).

The diameter of the semicircle is with an area of 76.97 square yards is 14 yards.

Semicircle is half that of a circle, hence the area will be half that of a circle. Area of semi circle = 1/2 × πr²

Where r radius and π is constant pi.

Since we are given the area of the semicircle as 76.97 square yards, we can set up the following equation:

76.97 = 1/2 × (πr²)

Multiplying both sides by 2, we get:

153.94 = πr²

Dividing both sides by π, we get:

r² = 49

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

r = 7

An intercept refers to the point(s) at which a curve or line intersects an axis. For example, the x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is where it crosses the y-axis.

A vertex is a point where two or more lines or curves meet. In the context of a parabolic curve, the vertex is the point at which the curve changes direction.

According to the given information:

A. The y-intercept occurs when x=0. Therefore, f(0) = 0² - 4(0) + 4 = 4. So the y-intercept is (0, 4).

The axis of symmetry can be found using the formula x = -b/(2a), where a and b are the coefficients of x² and x, respectively. In this case, a = 1 and b = -4, so x = -(-4)/(2*1) = 2. Therefore, the equation of the axis of symmetry is x = 2.

To find the vertex, we use the fact that the vertex occurs at the axis of symmetry. So when x=2, f(x) = 2² - 4(2) + 4 = -4. Therefore, the vertex is at (2, -4).

B. We can use the vertex to make a table of values:

x f(x)

0 4

The four points on the graph of f(x) = √x-4  including the left most point are: (4,0), (5,1), (8,2), and (20,4).

To find points on the graph of f(x) = √x-4, we can choose values of x and find the corresponding values of y.

The leftmost point on the graph is when x is the smallest possible value, which is x = 4 (since we can't take the square root of a negative number). At x = 4, f(x) = √0 = 0, so the leftmost point is (4,0).

To find three additional points, we can choose values of x that are greater than 4 and find the corresponding values of y:

When x = 5: f(5) = √1 = 1, so the point is (5,1)

When x = 8: f(8) = √4 = 2, so the point is (8,2)

When x = 20: f(20) = √16 = 4, so the point is approximately (20.4)

Answer: We can solve this problem by counting the number of trees that have at least 21 apples and subtracting the number of trees that have at least 80 apples.

Let T be the total number of trees in the orchard, and let n1 be the number of trees that have at least 21 apples, and n2 be the number of trees that have at least 80 apples. Then the number of trees that have at least 21 apples but fewer than 80 apples is:

n1 - n2

To find n1 and n2, we need to know the distribution of the number of apples on each tree. Without this information, we can't find an exact answer. However, we can make some reasonable assumptions and estimate the answer.

Assuming that the number of apples on each tree follows a normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation σ, we can use the empirical rule (also known as the 68-95-99.7 rule) to estimate the proportion of trees that have at least 21 apples and at least 80 apples. According to this rule:

- Approximately 68% of the trees will have a number of apples within one standard deviation of the mean.

- Approximately 95% of the trees will have a number of apples within two standard deviations of the mean.

- Approximately 99.7% of the trees will have a number of apples within three standard deviations of the mean.

Assuming that the mean number of apples per tree is around 50 (a reasonable estimate based on typical apple orchard data), and that the standard deviation is around 20 (based on empirical data), we can estimate the proportion of trees that have at least 21 apples and at least 80 apples as follows:

The lower bound for the number of apples on a tree that is one standard deviation below the mean is around 30. Therefore, approximately 16% of the trees will have at least 21 apples.

The upper bound for the number of apples on a tree that is two standard deviations above the mean is around 90. Therefore, approximately 2.5% of the trees will have at least 80 apples.

Using these estimates, we can calculate an approximate number of trees that have at least 21 apples but fewer than 80 apples as follows:

n1 - n2 = 0.16T - 0.025T = 0.135T

Therefore, approximately 13.5% of the trees in the orchard have at least 21 apples but fewer than 80 apples. If we know the exact distribution of the number of apples on each tree, we could calculate a more precise answer.

The solution to the inequality is x ≤ 10, which means that each row of seats on the floor must have 10 seats or fewer in order to meet the fire safety regulations.

What is inequality?

In mathematics, the inequality of two lines refers to the relationship between the slopes and y-intercepts of two different lines on a coordinate plane. Specifically, if the slope of one line is greater than the slope of another line, and their y-intercepts are not equal, then the inequality symbol (< or >) can be used to represent their relationship. For example, if line A has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -3, and line B has a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of 1, we can write A > B to represent that line A is steeper than line B.

To solve this problem, we need to use the information given to us to set up an inequality that represents the total number of seats in the theater and then use that inequality to determine the maximum number of people that can be in the theater while still meeting the fire safety regulations.

Let's start by calculating the total number of seats in the theater. We know that there are 90 seats in the balcony and 15 rows on the floor. We don't know the exact number of seats in each row, but we do know that each row has the same number of seats, which we will call x. Therefore, the total number of seats in the theater is 90 + (15 × x)

Now we can set up an inequality to represent the maximum number of people that can be in the theater while still meeting the fire safety regulations. We know that this number must be less than or equal to 240. Therefore, our inequality is 90 + (15 × x) ≤ 240

Now we can solve for x by first subtracting 90 from both sides of the inequality,

15 × x ≤ 150

Next, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 15,

x ≤ 10

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x ≤ 10, which means that each row of seats on the floor must have 10 seats or fewer in order to meet the fire safety regulations.

To check this solution, we can plug x = 10 into our expression for the total number of seats,

Total number of seats = 90 + (15 × 10) = 240

This confirms that the maximum number of people in the theater is 240, which is the limit imposed by the fire safety regulations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Predict:

Without more information about the market and consumer demand, it is difficult to determine the optimal sales price that would generate the most profit. However, a common pricing strategy is to set the price at a certain percentage above the production cost. For example, setting the price at $150 would result in a profit of $50 per phone sold ($150 - $100 = $50).

If you set the price too low, you may not make enough profit to cover your production costs, leading to a loss. Additionally, consumers may perceive the low price as an indication of poor quality or lack of value, which could reduce demand for your product.

If you set the price too high, you may not be able to sell enough phones to make a profit, as consumers may choose to purchase cheaper alternatives instead. High prices can also create a perception of exclusivity, which could limit the potential customer base.

Calculate:

See the table below.

Price ($) Quantity Demanded (Q) Total Revenue (TR) Total Cost (TC) Profit (TR-TC)

100 20 2,000 2,000 0

120 18 2,160 1,800 360

140 16 2,240 1,600 640

160 14 2,240 1,400 840

180 12 2,160 1,200 960

200 10 2,000 1,000 1,000

Analyze:

Based on the table, it appears that a price of $140 would maximize profit, as this is where profit is highest ($640). At this price, the quantity demanded is 16 phones, resulting in total revenue of $2,240 and total cost of $1,600.

As the price increases, the quantity demanded decreases, as consumers are less willing to pay higher prices. This leads to lower total revenue and profit.

The x-intercept is when profit is equal to zero, or where TR = TC. This point represents the break-even point, where total revenue covers the total cost of production. In this case, the x-intercept is at a price of $150.

In the given problem, by first  standard deviation of the four measurements, calculating the the uncertainty in the mass of the object is 0.004582g.

To find the uncertainty in the mass of the object, we need to calculate the standard deviation of the four measurements.

First, we calculate the mean of the four measurements:

mean = (2.744g + 2.756g + 2.751g + 2.758g) / 4 = 2.75225g

Next, we calculate the variance of the measurements:

variance = [(2.744g - 2.75225g)^2 + (2.756g - 2.75225g)^2 + (2.751g - 2.75225g)^2 + (2.758g - 2.75225g)^2] / 3

       = 0.000021g^2

The variance is the average of the squared deviations from the mean, divided by the number of measurements minus 1. Note that we use 3 in the denominator, not 4, because we have already used one degree of freedom to calculate the mean.

Finally, we take the square root of the variance to obtain the standard deviation:

standard deviation = sqrt(variance) = 0.004582g

Therefore, the uncertainty in the mass of the object is 0.004582g. We can report the mass as: mass = 2.75225g ± 0.004582g

Answer:  The question is asking us to find the derivative of the function f(x), but the function given is g(x). Therefore, we will assume that the question is asking us to find the derivative of g(x) and proceed accordingly.

To find the derivative of g(x), we need to apply the power rule and the sum rule of derivatives. The power rule states that if f(x) = x^n, then f'(x) = nx^(n-1), and the sum rule states that if f(x) = u(x) + v(x), then f'(x) = u'(x) + v'(x).

Using these rules, we can find the derivative of g(x) as follows:

g(x) = 3x² + 7x - 1

g'(x) = (3x²)' + (7x)' - (1)'

g'(x) = 6x + 7 - 0

g'(x) = 6x + 7

Therefore, the derivative of g(x) is g'(x) = 6x + 7.

We can show by the uniqueness theorem that the linear transformation, Y = aX + b, is also a normal random variable because the resultant probaility density fnction of Y equals: f(y) = (1/√(2πa^2σX^2)) * exp(-(y-aμX-b)^2/(2a^2σX^2)).

To show that the linear transformation, Y = aX + b is a normal random variable, we need to demonstrate that it satisfies the properties of a normal distribution. This means that it should have a bell-shaped probability density function, mean, and variance.

We can prove that it meets the mean condition this way:

E(Y) = E(aX + b) = aE(X) + b = aμX + b

Next, we can prove that it meets the variance condition thus:

Var(Y) = Var(aX + b) = a^2Var(X) = a^2σX^2

Lastly, the probability density function is given as f(y) = (1/√(2πa^2σX^2)) * exp(-(y-aμX-b)^2/(2a^2σX^2)). This proves that the conditions for a normal random variable is met.
