Translate the phrases to a system of linear equations: y= a1*x+b1 and y=a2*x+b2 with a variables, e.g. x and y. What do the y-intercepts represent in your example? What does the solution (or intersection) represent in your example? Solve the system of equation for x and y.

Let A be some m*n matrix. Consider the set S = {z : Az = 0}. First show that this is a vector space. Now show that n = p+q where p = rank(A) and q = dim(S). Here is how to do it. Let the vectors x1, . . . , xp be such that Ax1, . . . ,Axp form a basis of the column space of A (thus each x can be chosen to be some unit vector with a 1 corresponding to the position of a column vector that is part of a (maximally) linearly independent set) and let the vectors z1, . . . , zq be a basis for S. Then show that the two sets together i.e. the set {x1, . . . , xp, z1, . . . , zq} form a basis of the n-dimensional Euclidean space.

Using the result above, offer a direct proof of the result r(X′X) = r(X) without appealing to the product rank theorem

In Week 4 we learned about quadratic equations. In physics a quadratic equation can be used to model projectile motion. Projectile motion can describe the movement of a baseball after it has been hit by a bat, or the movement of a cannonball after it has been shot from a cannon. A penny falling from the Empire State Building can even be modeled with this equation!

The projectile motion equation is s(t)=-16t^2+vt+h where s(t) represents the distance or height of an object at time t, v represents the initial speed of the object in ft/s, and h is the initial height of the object, measured in feet.

If an object is starting at rest, then v=0 (such as for a penny being dropped from a building). If the object is starting from the ground, h=0. The baseball or cannonball situations, each have an initial velocity. For example, the initial velocity of the baseball is based on the speed at which the ball comes at you (the speed of the pitch).

Come up with a situation that you can model with this equation. Describe the situation, and tell us what v and h are. Fill in the values so that you have a quadratic equation. If you do research to find initial velocities, include the links to the websites where you found that information. If you would like to make up your own numbers as well, you can (be creative)!

Once you have your equation, find the maximum height as well as the time it takes to reach that maximum. Then use your equation to find when the object hits the ground (i.e. the x-intercepts).

Finally, use those three points as well as the initial height to sketch a graph. You can take a photo of it and include the image, or use an online graphing calculator and take a screenshot if that is easier.

Suppose an ice cream cone has negligible thickness and the tip of the cone is identified with origin (0,0,0)and the circular opening at the top is identified with the equation x^2+y^2=1, z=1. if you fill the cone with ice cream "rounded" so that the surface of the sections forms part of the surface x^2+y^2+z^2=2 and the ice cream has variable density f= x^2+y^2+z^2, what is the mass of the ice cream?
