Answer provided by our tutors

Let

x = the money invested at 1.7%

y = the money invested at 2.2%

y = the money invested at 24%

Since the total money invested was $26,000 we have:

x + 2y = 26000

The total annual interest was $574 means:

0.017x + 0.022y + 0.24y = 574

0.017x + 0.262y = 574

We have the following system of equations:

x + 2y = 26000

0.017x + 0.262y = 574

Answer:

When a block with mass M moving at a velocity of V collides and sticks to a block of mass 2M initially at rest, their velocity after the collision is equal to the original velocity of the first block. This is because, in a collision where the two objects stick together, the final velocity of the combined system is equal to the initial velocity of the first object.

To calculate the final velocity of the combined system, we can use the formula vf = vi + (2mv)/(m1+m2), where vf is the final velocity, vi is the initial velocity, m is the mass of the first object, v is the velocity of the first object, and m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects. Plugging in the values from the problem, we get:

vf = V + (2 * M * V)/(M + 2M) = V + (2 * M * V)/(3M) = V + (2/3) * V = (5/3) * V

Therefore, the final velocity of the combined system is (5/3) * V, which is equal to the original velocity of the first block.

The velocity of the mass 2M after the collision will be V/2 which is half of the velocity of mass M.

An elastic collision is one during which the system does not experience a huge reduction of kinetic energy as a result of the collision. In elastic collisions, mass and kinetic energy are both preserved. Imagine two trolleys that resemble one another moving in the same direction at the same pace.

A block with mass M moving at a velocity of V collides and sticks to a block of mass 2M initially at rest.

Let 'v' be the velocity after the collision. Then the velocity of the mass 2M after the collision will be calculated as,

MV = 2Mv

v = V / 2

Thus, the velocity of the mass 2M after the collision will be V/2 which is half of the velocity of the mass M.

The x and y values for the given equation are x= -20 and y=8

One of the fundamental operations defining a vector space in linear algebra in mathematics is scalar multiplication (or more generally, a module in abstract algebra). When a real Euclidean vector is multiplied scalarly by a positive real number, the direction of the vector remains unchanged, but the magnitude of the vector increases. A scalar is anything that scales vectors, which is how the word "scalar" itself came to be. It is important to distinguish between the inner product of two vectors and scalar multiplication, which is the multiplication of a vector by a scalar with a vector as the product.

Given,

-1/4[ x 12 -32 ] = [ 5  -3  y ]

[(-1/4)x    (-12/4)    (-32/-4)]=[5  -3  y]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height be h in.

Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height

= 1/2 * (h + 6) * h = 600

Multiply both sides by 2:

h(h + 6) = 1200

h^2 + 6h = 1200

(h + 3)^2 - 9 = 1200

(h + 3)^2 = 1209

h + 3 = +/- sqrt(1209

h = -3 +/-sqrt(1209)

  = 31.77 in  (we ignore the negative root).

So, the height is 31.77 in and the base is 37.77 in

Answer: 4/3 of a mile

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance that Pepe and Paula ran in 60 minutes, we need to first determine their individual pace in miles per minute. Pepe ran 2/3 of a mile in 5 minutes, so his pace was 2/3 / 5 = 2/15 of a mile per minute. Paula ran 1/4 of a mile in 2 minutes, so her pace was 1/4 / 2 = 1/8 of a mile per minute.

We can now use these values to determine the distance that each of them ran in 60 minutes. Pepe ran at a pace of 2/15 of a mile per minute, so he ran 2/15 * 60 = 8/15 of a mile in 60 minutes. Paula ran at a pace of 1/8 of a mile per minute, so she ran 1/8 * 60 = 3/8 of a mile in 60 minutes.

To find the total distance that Pepe and Paula ran in 60 minutes, we can add their individual distances: 8/15 + 3/8 = 35/60 + 45/60 = 80/60 = 4/3 of a mile. Therefore, Pepe and Paula cumulatively ran a total of 4/3 of a mile on their 60-minute training run.

Fifth power of the given transition matrix is (0.22 0.12 0.14 0.14 0.34) and  the probability that state 2 changes to state 4 after five repetitions of the experiment is 0.14.

To find the fifth power of the matrix A, we can simply multiply A by itself five times:

A^5 = A * A * A * A * A

= (0.4 0.1 0.1 0.2 0.2) * (0.2 0.1 0.2 0.1 0.4) * (0.4 0.1 0.1 0.2 0.2) * (0.2 0.1 0.2 0.1 0.4) * (0.4 0.1 0.1 0.2 0.2)

= (0.22 0.12 0.14 0.14 0.34)

To find the probability that state 2 changes to state 4 after five repetitions of the experiment, we need to look at the element in the fifth power matrix A^5 that corresponds to state 2 and state 4. This element is located in the second row and fourth column of the matrix, which is 0.14.

Therefore, Fifth power of the given transition matrix is (0.22 0.12 0.14 0.14 0.34) and the probability that state 2 changes to state 4 after five repetitions of the experiment is 0.14.

Option of the matrices a, b, and d are non symmetric.

Symmetric matrices are those matrices that have equal dimensions, i.e. the number of rows is same as the number of columns. They are also known as square matrices.

It is provided that A and B are symmetric n × n matrices.

To multiply two matrices of different order, the number of rows of the first matrix must be same as the number of columns of the second matrix.

Suppose X is a 2 × 3 matrix and Y is a 3 × 2.

Then the product AB will be a n × n matrix.

(a) A= C+CT

Thus the sum of matrix A and B will be a n × n matrix.

Thus, the matrix A is non symmetric.

(b) B = C-CT

So, matrix D will also be a n × n matrix.

Thus, the matrix D is non symmetric.

(c) D = CTC = (CT) × C

Then the product CT will be a n × n matrix.

The next step would be to multiply CT and C.

Both are n × n matrices.

Thus, the matrix D is symmetric.

(d) E = CTC - CCT

Then he product CT will be a n × n matrix.

Similarly, the product CT will be a n × n matrix.

Thus, the matrix E is non symmetric.

Similalry,

(e) F = (I +C)(I + CT

Thus, the matrix F is symmetric.

(f) G = (I +C)(I -CT)

Thus, the matrix G is symmetric.

It will take approximately 7.66 years for the amount of Americium-241 remaining to reach 6 kg, assuming that the initial amount was 10 kg. We can use formula Q(t) = Pe^(rt) to calculate half-life of Americium-241.

To construct a function that will model the amount of Americium-241 remaining after t years from an initial amount of 10 kg, we can use the formula:

Q(t) = Pe^(rt)

where Q(t) is the amount of Americium-241 remaining after t years, P is the initial quantity (10 kg in this case), r is the decay rate (the negative of the half-life of Americium-241, which is -432.2 years), and e is the mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828.

Plugging in the values, we get:

Q(t) = 10 * e^(-432.2t)

This is the function that will model the amount of Americium-241 remaining after t years from an initial quantity of 10 kg.

To find out how long it will take for the amount of Americium-241 remaining to reach 6 kg, we can solve the equation Q(t) = 6 for t.

[tex]Q(t) = 6\\6 = 10 * e^(-432.2t)\\0.6 = e^(-432.2t)\\ln(0.6) = -432.2t\\t = ln(0.6) / -432.2\\[/tex]

Answer:

In modular arithmetic, the modulo operation is used to find the remainder when one number is divided by another. For example, the expression "9 % 3" would evaluate to 0 because 9 divided by 3 leaves a remainder of 0.

In the given equation, taking the modulo 9 of both sides gives:

79z % 9 ≡ 92x + 9y % 9

The modulo operation distributes over addition, so we can simplify this to:

(79z % 9) ≡ (92x % 9) + (9y % 9)

Since any number divided by 9 has a remainder of itself, we can simplify this further to:

(z % 9) ≡ (2x % 9) + (y % 9)

This gives us the result:

-2z % 9 ≡ 2x % 9

Multiplying both sides by 5 gives:

(-2z % 9) * 5 ≡ (2x % 9) * 5

Which simplifies to:

-z % 9 ≡ x % 9

Since x is between 0 and 10, we know that x % 9 is between 0 and 9. Therefore, we can conclude that z = 9 - x.

Answer:

309 chemistry textbooks and 103 math textbooks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c be the number of chemistry textbooks sold and m be the number of math textbooks sold. We know that c + m = 412, because the total number of textbooks sold is 412. We also know that c = 3m, because the number of chemistry textbooks sold is three times the number of math textbooks sold.

We can substitute 3m for c in the first equation to get 3m + m = 412. This simplifies to 4m = 412. Dividing both sides by 4 gives us m = 103.

Since we know that c = 3m, the number of chemistry textbooks sold is 3 * 103 = 309. Therefore, the store sold 309 chemistry textbooks and 103 math textbooks.

Triangles are polygons because they have three vertices and three edges. This is one of the basic shapes in geometry.

In Euclidean geometry, any three non-collinear points determine a distinct triangle and a distinct plane (i.e. a two-dimensional Euclidean space). To put it another way, every triangle has a plane that it is contained in, and there is only one plane that contains every triangle. If and only if all geometry is the Euclidean plane, all triangles are contained in a single plane; however, this is no longer true in higher-dimensional Euclidean spaces. The topic of this article, unless otherwise stated, is triangles in Euclidean geometry, specifically the Euclidean plane.

Given,

In ΔXYZ, m∠Y=71.02° and m∠Z=29.6°

We know that,

The angles sum in a triangle is 180°.

m∠X+m∠Y+m∠Z=180°

m∠X+71.02°+29.6°=180°

m∠X=180°-100.62°

m∠X=79.38°

Therefore, the measure of exterior angle to ∠X is 79.38°.
