Linear-equations/176737: How do I use Gauss-Jordan elimination to solve this linear system and find all solutions? x + y - 2z = 5 2x + 3y + 4z = 2 So far, I have placed each of the numbers into an augmented matrix. I do not know how to proceed from here. 1 solutions Answer 131855 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 22:58:15 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! You can't solve this system. You have three variables but only two equations. Go find your other equation and we'll talk.

Linear-equations/176742: I am a bit overwhelmed by the complexity of this question. Please help me to understand and answer the question. If matrix A is transformed into matrix B by means of an elementary row operation, is there an elementary row operation that transforms B into A? 1 solutions Answer 131842 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 22:19:10 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are three elementary row operations: 1. Switching the position of two rows. Obviously, you can just switch them back again. 2. Multiplying each element of a row by a non-zero constant. Just multiply that row by the reciprocal of the non-zero constant. 3. Replacing a row with the sum of that row and a multiple of another row. Just subtract the multiple again. So, the answer to your question is yes.

Probability-and-statistics/176732: Can someone double check my work please. Two dice are rolled. Find the probability that the score on the dice is 8? 8 = (1,7)(6,2)(4,4)(3,5)(5,3)(4,4)(2,6)(7,1) 8/36 = 2/9 1 solutions Answer 131808 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 20:04:55 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! First of all, how did you get (1, 7) or (7, 1)? DO NOT take that pair of dice to Vegas -- you might get your thumbs broken by some big casino security goon. Second of all, you counted (4,4) twice. Nope, (4,4) is a single outcome. So there are 8 = (6,2) or (5,3) or (4,4) or (3,5) or (2,6) = 5 ways to make an 8 and the probability of rolling 8 is .

Probability-and-statistics/176736: If a coin is tossed three times, in how many different ways can the sequence of heads and tails appear? 1 solutions Answer 131804 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 19:59:35 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2 ways for the first toss times 2 ways for the second toss times 2 ways for the third toss = 6 ways.

Probability-and-statistics/176735: Can someone double check my work please. Two dice are rolled. Find the odds that the score on the dice is either 6 or 12? 6 = (1,5)(2,4)(3,3)(3,3)(4,2)(5,1) = 6/36 = 1/6 12 = (6,6)(6,6) = 2/36 = 1/18 Did I do this right? 1 solutions Answer 131802 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 19:58:20 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not quite. There are 5 ways to make a 6: (1, 5), (2, 4), (3, 3), (4, 2), and (5, 1). There is 1 way to make a 12: (6, 6). There are a total of 36 different results: 6 ways one die can come up times 6 ways the other die can come up. Since you want the probability of rolling a 6 OR a 12, then you have a total of 6 different successes (5 ways to make 6 plus 1 way to make 12) out of 36 possible outcomes, so:

Points-lines-and-rays/176733: Can someone double check my work please. Find the equation of the line passing through the two points.(2,9)and (0,6) slope = (y^2 - y1)(x^2 - x1) slope = (6 + 9)(0 + 2) slope = 15/2 Did I do this right? 1 solutions Answer 131798 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 19:52:51 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not quite. slope = and and So: (you had + here instead of -)

Equations/176729: Maggie makes a $9.25 purchase at a bookstore in Reno with a $20 bill. The store has no bills and gives her the change in quarters and fifty-cent pieces. There are 30 coins in all. How many of each kind are there? please help me! thank you!! 1 solutions Answer 131795 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 19:45:56 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! The number of quarters: The number of 50c pieces: Given: The value of each quarter is 25 cents, so the value of all her quarters is in cents. Similarly the value of all her 50c pieces is The total value of her change is dollars which is the same as cents. The value of the quarters plus the value of the 50c pieces must equal the total value of the change, so: Solve the first equation for : → . Substitute this expression for into the second equation: Solve for So there were 13 half-dollars, and therefore quarters. Check: Checks.

Rational-functions/176712: How do u solve this problem. Given: f(x)= x + 2 and g(x) = x^2 + 2 Problem: f(g(1)) how do i do this?? 1 solutions Answer 131791 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 19:18:18 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! For x in g(x) substitute 1 and do the arithmetic. Take this value for g(1) and substitute for x in f(x) and do the arithmetic. Alternatively, though I think it is a bit more work, you could substitute the expression for g(x) for the x in f(x) giving you an expression for (f◦g)(x). Then you can substitute 1 for x in the derived expression. In general, given a function f defined by f(x) = [some expression in x], you evaluate f(a) by substituting a for x in the expression. It doesn't matter whether a is a number, some other variable, or another function definition or composite of functions. Remember that f or g or h or some other letter is a function, f(x) or g(x) etc. is the value of the function at x. f(a), then, is the value of the function at a. Typically, things like f(x) are used to describe the general rule for the specific function whereas f(a) is used to examine the value of a particular function at a specific point, namely a.

Numbers_Word_Problems/176691: The area of a triangle is 126cm^2, and the altitude is 3 less than twice the base. Find the length of the base. 1 solutions Answer 131757 by solver91311(16897)   on 2009-01-14 17:38:32 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! The area of a triangle is given by . Let the measure of the base be , then we are given that the altitude is , so and we are given that the area of this particular triangle is 126 square centimeters. Therefore: Solve the quadratic by ordinary means. You can factor, complete the square, or use the quadratic formula -- all three methods work. You will get two roots as you should expect, except that one of them will be < 0. This absurd result for the measure of a side of a triangle is an extraneous root caused by squaring the variable in the process of solving the problem. Exclude the negative root. The positive root is your answer.
