Given a quadratic function f(x) = 1 2xtax bt x + c, where a is general symmetric positive definite, we will make one steepest gradient descent step from x₀ to minimize f. suppose we choose x₀ such that x₀ x is an eigen vector of a, associated with eigenvalue. what is the error e₁ after the rst step?

For a read-a-thon, jay and odhràn each started reading a book at the same time and continued reading for several hours. jay's book had 278 pages, and he read 55 pages per hour. odhràn's book had 238 pages, and he read 45 pages per hour. after how many hours did they have the same number of pages left, and how many pages were left?
