A vector w orthogonal to u and v can be obtained by the cross product of u and v, namely u x v.  Subsequently, u x  v may be reduced to a unit vector.

u<-8,-6,4>
v<10,-18,-2>

w=u x v 
=
  i      j   k
 -8   -6  4
10 -18 -2
=<12+72, 40-16, 144+60>
=<84, 24, 204>
=12 < 7,2,17>

Check that w is orthogonal to u and v
w.u = 12<7,2,17><-8,-6,4> = 12(-56-12,68)=0
w.v = 12<7,2,17><10,-18,-2> = 12(70-36-34)=0
Therefore w is orthogonal to both u and v.

Unit vector of w
\frac{}{\sqrt{7^2+2^2+17^2}}=\frac{1}{3\sqrt{38}}

Joe earns $14 an hour and Blaine earns $18 per hour. Joe receives a raise of $1.75 every six months, and Blaine receives a raise
Katarina [22]

After 4 interval of six months, Joe to earn same hourly rate as Blaine

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Amount earned by Joe = $ 14 per hour

Amount earned by Blaine = $ 18 per hour

Lets assume the number of six month intervals be "x"

<em><u>Joe receives a raise of $1.75 every six months</u></em>

Therefore,

Joe earning: 14 + 1.75(number of six month intervals)

Equation for Joe earning: 14 + 1.75x ------- eqn 1

<em><u>Blaine receives a raise of $0.75 every six months</u></em>

Therefore,

Blaine earning: 18 + 0.75(number of six month intervals)

Equation for Blaine earning: 18 + 0.75x ------------ eqn 2

The number of six-month intervals it will take Joe to earn the same hourly rate as Blaine,

Eqn 1 must be equal to eqn 2

14+1.75x = 18+0.75x\\\\1.75x-0.75x = 18-14\\\\1x = 4\\\\x = 4

Thus after 4 interval of six months, Joe to earn same hourly rate as Blaine.
