Answer:

u₁= ⟨1/(7*√3),−5/(7*√3) ,−11/(7*√3)⟩

u₂= ⟨-1/(7*√3),5/(7*√3) ,11/(7*√3)⟩

Step-by-step explanation:

for  a=⟨−2,−4,−2⟩ and b=⟨−3,5,2⟩

a vector orthogonal to a and b can be found through the vectorial product of a and b. Thus

c= a x bc=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\-2&-4&-2\\-3&5&2\end{array}\right] =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4&-2\\5&2\end{array}\right]*i+\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&-2\\-3&2\end{array}\right]*j+\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&-4\\-3&5\end{array}\right]*k = 2*i  -10*j  - 22*k

then c₁=⟨2,−10,−22⟩ and c₂= - c₁= ⟨-2,10,22⟩ are orthogonal to a and b

the corresponding unit vectors are

u₁=c₁/|c₁| = ⟨2,−10,−22⟩ / √(2²+(−10)²+(−22)²) = ⟨2,−10,−22⟩/(14*√3) =  ⟨1/(7*√3),−5/(7*√3) ,−11/(7*√3)⟩

then u₂= - u₁=  ⟨-1/(7*√3),5/(7*√3) ,11/(7*√3)⟩

then the unit vectors are

u₁= ⟨1/(7*√3),−5/(7*√3) ,−11/(7*√3)⟩

u₂= ⟨-1/(7*√3),5/(7*√3) ,11/(7*√3)⟩

Find the values of the missing angles<br><br> HELP PLEASE DO ANY! I’ll give you brilliance
yan [13]

Answer:

1) x = 42 ; y = 42

2) x = 72 ; y = 48 ; z = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

x + 42 + 96 = 180

x + 138 = 180

x = 42

y + 42 + 96 = 180

y + 138 = 180

y = 42

2)

x + 108 = 180

x = 72

y + 132 = 180

y = 48

z + x + y = 180

z + 72 + 48 = 180

z + 120 = 180

z = 60

Maria mixes \frac{1}{4} cup white sugar and \frac{2}{3} cup brown sugar to make a topping for some muffins. She uses \frac{1}{12
Hoochie [10]

Answer: 11 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Maria mixes 1/4 cup white sugar with 2/3 cup brown sugar, this will give us a mixture of:

= 1/4 + 2/3

= 3/12 + 8/12

= 11/12

Ww are then told that she uses 1/12 cup of the mixture to top each muffin. Therefore, the number of muffins that she can top will be:

= 11/12 ÷ 1/12

= 11/12 × 12/1

= 12

She can top 11 muffins.

Help me idk how to do this
ElenaW [278]
To do this, you have to plug each x value into the rule.

1.y = 15 - 3×2
y = 15 - 6
y = 9

So the first y value would be 9.

2.y = 15 - 3×3
y = 15 - 9
y = 6

3. y = 15 - 3×4
y = 15-12
y = 3

4. y = 15 - 3×5
y = 15-15
y = 0

Hope this helps!
