How can I write this symbol: ` inside a code block in just one line?  As the code blocks are defined by: ```, I am not able to write one of these inside the code block.
How do I escape a backtick ` within a code block?  This is probably a duplicate, since I'm sure it's a common concern, but I can't find a question that addresses this specifically.  How do I write List'1 with the "1" character still in the code-text format?
Inverse of a Positive Definite Let K be nonsingular symmetric matrix, prove that if K is a positive   definite so is $K^{-1}$ .   My attempt:  I have that $K = K^T$ so $x^TKx = x^TK^Tx = (xK)^Tx = (xIK)^Tx$ and then I don't know what to do next.

How do I change the TOP ortho view to BACK ortho view for my BACK image?   check out the pic I uploaded to see what I'm talking about. This actually triggered me in my mind from . After some playing around I notice that the relation $a^{\log_b x} = x^{\log_b a}$ is true for any valid value of $a,b$ and $x$. I am very inquisitive to see how this holds ? 'Thank you for taking your time writing' or 'Thank you for taking your time to write' ? A person gave me an answer on English.SE and I commented:     Thank you for taking your time writing this wonderful answer!   Now, looking at the sentence in retrospect, even though I am not a native English speaker (duh, otherwise I wouldn't be asking a question on ELL.SE), I find the sentence a bit odd.  To get my point across, let me rephrase the sentence:     Thank you for taking your time to write this wonderful answer!   With my relatively little knowledge and understanding of English, I feel that using 'writing' (as I did in the original sentence) emphasizes the very process of writing the answer, whereas using 'to write' emphasizes the mere fact that an answer has been given, and a wonderful one at that.  This is exactly why I feel the original sentence is a little bit awkward and the second, revised one would have been more apt.  Am I correct or are the quoted sentences virtually synonymous? Missing vertices in Edit Mode Clock displays incorrect time I've just installed 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04 and after I updated it, the clock stopped displaying the right time. It's now 8 hours behind my normal time. I've checked the Time and Date settings and the Location field is correct. What's even weirder is that the time displayed in Time and Date Settings adjusts itself after a few seconds and is correct. The time displayed in the task bar remains the same, however.  Any ideas? How to get my software into Ubuntu? To debug a JACK/Pulseaudio issue, I want to understand when and why the pulseaudio daemon is started by systemd (on Fedora).  Using:  $ ps -o'pid,ppid,args' `pgrep pulse`   I see that the pulseaudio daemon is being started by systemd (pid=1)   PID  PPID COMMAND 2738     1 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start   However, I was unable to find any unit-file on my system containing pulseaudio or even just pulse.  My specific questions are:  A) Is there a way to determine the systemd unit that caused the creation of a specific process (in my example output, process 2738, the PA daemon)?  B) Are there alternative approaches to find out which unit-dependency chain or other settings of systemd resulted in the invocation of /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start? Once I reach 15 reputation, will my old votes be taken into account? Users below 15 reputation can't effectively vote. It says:     Votes cast by those with less than 15 reputation are recorded, but do not change the publicly displayed post score   Does it mean that they will take effect after I reach 15 reputation or because they were cast before, they're recorded but ignored? Can't login with Stack Exchange OpenID when HTTPS-Everywhere plugin is active - apparent protocol mismatch How can time dilation be symmetric? Suppose we have two twins travelling away from each other, each twin moving at some speed $v$:    Twin $A$ observes twin $B$’s time to be dilated so his clock runs faster than twin $B$’s clock. But twin $B$ observes twin $A$’s time to be dilated so his clock runs faster than twin $A$’s clock. Each twin thinks their clock is running faster. How can this be? Isn’t this a paradox? How to uninstall Intel Linux Graphics Installer and revert to default drivers My Panda USB wi-fi adapter works just fine on 16.10, but when I try to connect to my wi-fi router in 17.04, GNOME network manager reports "Connection failed." I did some tinkering, and noticed that my MAC address for my wifi adapter, according to GNOME, is DIFFERENT every time I make it forget my wifi settings and try to reconnect. Any leads on a possible fix or work-around?   I'm running Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, kernel 4.10.0-19-generic, GNOME 3.24.0. Let L1 be the line passing through the point $P_1=(−11, 10, −1)$ with direction vector $\vec d_1=\begin{bmatrix}−2\\ 3\\ −1\end{bmatrix}t$, and let $L_2$ be the line passing through the point $P_2=(−8, 9, 10)$ with direction vector $\vec d_2=\begin{bmatrix}−1\\ 3\\1\end{bmatrix}t$. Find the shortest distance, $d$, between these two lines, and find a point $Q_1$ on $L_1$ and a point $Q_2$ on $L_2$ so that $d(Q_1,Q_2) = d$.   I dont really understand how to properly approach this question, how do i start? sed : Ignore line starting whitespace for match Splitting string into pair of characters in Ruby I have a string (e.g. "AABBCCDDEEFF") and want to split this into an array with each element containing two characters - ["AA", "BB", "CC", "DD", "EE", "FF"]. How would I solve the following problem involving elementary matrices? Let $A=\begin{pmatrix}0&amp;5\\ 7&amp;4\end{pmatrix}$.      1) Write $A$ as a product of $4$ elementary matrices.      2) Write $A^{-1}$ as a product of $4$ elementary matrices.   My work. I have managed to find $A^{-1}$, which came out to be this:  \begin{pmatrix}-\frac{4}{35}&amp;\frac{1}{7}\\ \frac{1}{5}&amp;0\end{pmatrix}  However, I am struggling to figure out how I would split each of these matrices into $4$ elementary matrices. Any help? If $G$ is abelian, then the set of all $g \in G$ such that $g = g^{-1}$ is a subgroup of $G$ Prove that if $G$ is abelian then the set $H$ of all elements of $G$ that are their own inverses is a subgroup of $G$.   Naturally in an abelian group, $ab = ba$ for $a, b \in G$, however I'm not sure how to show the set elements that are their own inverses is a subgroup of $G$ using arbitrary elements.
