X = boys
y = girls

x + y = 40 (in a class there are 40 students)
x = y + 10 (t<span>here are 10 more boys than girls in the class</span>)

If u+v+w=0, show that u x v = v x w = w x u.

Flauer [41]

Take the cross product of both sides of $\mathbf u+\mathbf v+\mathbf w=\mathbf0$ with $\mathbf u,\mathbf v,\mathbf w$ to generate a system of three simultaneous equations.

$(\mathbf u+\mathbf v+\mathbf w)\times\left\{\begin{matrix}\mathbf u\\\mathbf v\\\mathbf w\end{matrix}\right\}=\mathbf0\times\left\{\begin{matrix}\mathbf u\\\mathbf v\\\mathbf w\end{matrix}\right\}$
$\implies\begin{cases}\mathbf u\times\mathbf u+\mathbf u\times\mathbf v+\mathbf u\times\mathbf w=\mathbf0\\\mathbf v\times\mathbf u+\mathbf v\times\mathbf v+\mathbf v\times\mathbf w=\mathbf0\\\mathbf w\times\mathbf u+\mathbf w\times\mathbf v+\mathbf w\times\mathbf w=\mathbf0\end{cases}$
$\implies\begin{cases}\mathbf u\times\mathbf v+\mathbf u\times\mathbf w=\mathbf0\\\mathbf v\times\mathbf u+\mathbf v\times\mathbf w=\mathbf0\\\mathbf w\times\mathbf u+\mathbf w\times\mathbf v=\mathbf0\end{cases}$

since $\mathbf x\times\mathbf x=\mathbf0$ for any vector $\mathbf x$ .

Finally, use the fact that the cross product is anticommutative, i.e. $\mathbf x\times\mathbf y=-\mathbf y\times\mathbf x$ . The conclusion follows.

Monique randomly surveyed 30 students from

Naily [24]

Answer:

522

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the percent of students in her class that have a dog or cat:

Set up a proportion: $\frac{18}{30} = \frac{x}{100}$
Cross multiply, then divide: 18 × 100 = 1800, 1800 ÷ 30 = 60
So, 60% have a dog or cat

Find 60% of the total amount of students in Monique's school:

60% of 870 = $\frac{60}{100}$ × $\frac{870}{1}$
$\frac{60}{100}$ × $\frac{870}{1} = \frac{52200}{100}$
$\frac{52200}{100} = \frac{522}{1} = 522$

I hope this helps!
