What are the dimensions of 24 square feet?
There are infinite varieties of dimensions as 4'x6' , 3'x8', 12'x2', ..., etc
Is kg an independent variable?
No, a Kilogram (Kg) is not an independent variable. An independent variable is any system that remains free from change If something else changes.
We would therefore say a Kilogram is a dependent variable. The amount of Kilograms depends on the amount of fat, water, organs, etc stored.
What are some of the factors that contribute to students' inability to solve word problems?
Some students have trouble with word problems. They may not fully understand what the question is asking. They may not understand topic. Or they might not be the smartest in word problems. If so , I would consider a tutor.
What number should come next -9 16 -25?
These are square numbers of 3, 4, 5 with alternating sign, I'd expect to continue the sequence with
36, -49, 64, -81, 100
How are matrices used in cryptography?
Suppose you had a secret message you needed to give someone. You can use a matrix to make it unreadable to anyone except the recipient.
First, you must have an encoding matrix. Let's suppose your encoding matrix is...
-2 2 3
-1 3 2
2 1 3
And your message is... I like matrices
You must then write you message with numbers.
Suppose you use the code A=1, B=2, C=3 etc. Spaces are 27.
That would make your message this:
9 27 12 9 11 5 27 13 1 20 18 9 3 5 19
You translate this into a matrix, going down the columns. The matrix must have three rows to be able to multiply.
9 9 27 20 3
27 11 13 18 5
12 5 1 9 19
When you multiply the two, you get...
72 19 -25 23 61
96 34 14 52 50
81 44 70 85 68
To find the original message, you multiply by the inverse
of the encoding matrix--the decoding matrix. You will find the first pattern of numbers and be able to find the message.
(Sorry, I don't know how to make matrix brackets. You'll just have to deal with it. I tried to make it pretty clear.)
What is the line of best fit mean in algebra?
The line of best fit is a concept in statistics rather than algebra. Given two variables, X and Y, they can be plotted (a scatter plot). Before going any further, it is good practise to look at the scatter plot and see if the points look like they are approximately in a straight line. If not, a line of best fit is not appropriate: you may need to transform one or both variable.
For each observed value, xi, there will be a value yi where i ranges over all the observations: that is, your data comprises the set of ordered pairs (xi, yi). You can then draw a line over the scatter plot. Many points will not lie on the line but some distance above or below it. If the value on the line. corresponding to xi is yi-fitted, then ei = (yi-fitted - yi) is the error between the fitted and observed values. Then the line of best fit is the one which minimises the sum of (ei)2.
It is not easy to explain this in plain text, and more so when you are handicapped by a rubbish browser. Although the calculations may look daunting, they are not that bad, and there packages which will do away with the drudgery.
Which shape has at least a obtuse angle?
if you are talking about regular polygons, then nothing has an obtuse angle. otherwise, pretty much any shape can have an obtuse angle
When solving systems of equations how do you determine what method to use?
if you are good at math, you would know. I'm not being mean, but sometimes it takes a little help from an adult.
How do you do linear equations with two points?
Suppose you have the points with coordinates (p, q) and (r, s)
then, provided p is different from r,
the slope of the line is (q - s)/(p - r) = m, say.
Then, if (x, y) is any point on the line,
(x - s)/(y - r) = m
That, after simplification, is the linear equation of the line.
This will be a lot simpler when you have numerical values for p, q, r and s rather than work algebraically throughout.
If p is not different from r, then the equation is x = p (or r), a vertical line.
How can linear algebra be useful in business management?
I have the job you may be looking at and once you get the job it is just basic math
How do you plot linear equations?
Try using this website (see related links below).
ex. y= 2x+3
The slope is how the line slopes so this one would be 2 or on the graph, up 2 and right 1.
The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axiz or (0,3).
So plot (0,3) and go up 2 right 1 for about 3 points and if you need more you can reverse the direction and go down 2 left 1.
What is the y-intercept in this linear equation 2y -4x equals -12?
2y-4x=-12 Add 4x to each side
2y=4x-12 Divide each side by 2
y=2x-6 The y-intercept is (0,-6)
Is there an explicit solution to a single linear equation with two variables?
Such an equation has an infinite set of solutions. You can solve the equation for one variable, in terms of the other. Then, by replacing different values for one of the variables, you can get different solutions.
Can you solve the simultaneous equation 4x plus 3y equals 4 and x-2y equals -10 with steps?
4x + 3y = 4
x - 2y = -10, so add 2y to both sides gives x=2y-10, replace this into first equation gives:
4(2y-10) + 3y = 4, expand that gives 8y-40+3y=4, add 40 to both sides, this gives:
8y + 3y =44, or 11y = 44 giving you y=4.
You have solved for y, now solve for x:
4x + 3y = 4, gives 4x +12 = 4, or 4x=-8 giving x=-2.
So x=-2 and y=4.
QED.
Can you have division in a linear equation?
A linear equation/function can have division in the equation, as long as a non-constant variable is not the denominator.
Examples:
1 y = (1/2)x + 2 Linear
2 y/3 = (x - 1)/3 Linear
3 y = 1/x + a Non linear
What can't linear equations have in order to be a linear equation?
To be a linear equation, the equation must be set equal to Y. Also, it can't have any square roots, or any variables on the bottom of a fraction.
In general, the terms of a linear equation must be either first-degree polynomials with respect to the variables, constants, or products of the two. This disallows terms involving trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential, hyperbolic, and power expressions (except for the power of 1) and their inverses.
A line segment is a line with two points. When drawn, there are no arrows coming out of the points.
Matrices are used in pretty much any situation where several linear equations are involved. They're used all over the place in physics, chemistry, engineering, and economics. I linked a site below with more information.
Can a system of linear equations in two variables have zero solutions?
Yes. You can obviously have a set of lines with no common intersection, can't you?

How do you find eigenvalues of a 3 by 3 matrix?
Call your matrix A, the eigenvalues are defined as the numbers e for which a nonzero vector v exists such that Av = ev. This is equivalent to requiring (A-eI)v=0 to have a non zero solution v, where I is the identity matrix of the same dimensions as A. A matrix A-eI with this property is called singular and has a zero determinant. The determinant of A-eI is a polynomial in e, which has the eigenvalues of A as roots. Often setting this polynomial to zero and solving for e is the easiest way to compute the eigenvalues of A.
Which measure of cetral tendency would be appropriate to describe this data set?
None. The data set has no elements and so there cannot be any central tendency.
