1 where c β β
Let A be a matrix.
a) Use Theorem 13.3 to determine the values of c for which A is invertible. [You can use any parts of the theorem you like, but make sure you explain your answer.]
b) For the value(s) of c for which the matrix is invertible, write A^-1 as a product of elementary matrices. That is, write down elementary matrices E1, E2, ..., En such that A^-1 = E1 * E2 * ... * En.
Calculus
a) Let f: [0,1] β β be a function. For each n β β, partition [0,1] into n equal subintervals and suppose that for each n the upper and lower sums are given by U_n = and L_n = respectively.
Is f integrable? If so, what is β«[0,1] f(x) dx? Use the definition of the definite integral to explain your answer.
b) Let g(x) = and let n β β. [1,x0,1]
i) What is L_n as a function of n?
ii) What is U_n as a function of n?
iii) Use your answers to i and ii to calculate β«[1,x0,1] g(x) dx.
