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)⟩

Factor completely 2x2 − 6x − 36.
gavmur [86]
To factor out completely, we should have reached the most simplified form,
first we should take out 2.
2(x2 - 3x - 18)
then we should factor out the inside of the parenthesis,
2(x - 6)(x + 3)
And that's the most simplified and factored out form.

The final answer is then the second option, <span>2(x − 6)(x + 3)</span>

when a cannonball is fired, the equation of its pathway can be modeled by h=-16t squared + 128t. find the time it will take for
Rashid [163]
At the time the cannonball reaches the ground, the vertical height of the cannonball from the ground is 0, i.e. h = 0.

Thus, the time it will take the cannonball to reach the ground is given by

-16t^2+128t=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow t(-16t+128)=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow t=0\ or\ -16t+128=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow16t=128 \\  \\ \Rightarrow t= \frac{128}{16} =8

Therefore, it will take the cannonball 8 seconds to reach the ground.

ILL MARK BRAINIEST IF YOU CAN DO THIS RIGHT!!! Please do the 2 questions!
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

7. 80 miles

8. F

Step-by-step explanation:

7. Jorge leaves 2 hours early, and is going 20 miles per hour. So before Marcos starts going, Jorge has gone 40 miles (2*20). Then, 1 hour later, Jorge is at 60 miles and Marcos is at 40 (because he goes 40 miles per hour in his car). Another hour later, Jorge is at 80 (60+20) and Marcos is at 80 as well (40 + 40). They will both have gone 80 miles when Marcus catches up.

8. You want to get <em>a</em> isolated.

A = h/2(a + b)

First, multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of h/2.

2A/h = a + b

Then, subtract b from both sides.

2A-b/h = a
