Abe and Ben each have a certain number of dollars. If Abe gives Ben $5 then Abe and Ben will have the same number of dollars. If

Ben gives Abe $5 then Abe will have twice as many dollars as Ben. Let A=Abe's original dollars B= Bens original dollars. Express the problem as a linear system in A and B. Solve the system for A and B by addition or substitution. Tell who had what and use dollar sign $.

A = 5 + B
A + 5 = 2B

Let's get one of the variables on one side.

A = 5 + B
A = 2B - 5

By the transitive property

5 + B = 2B - 5

Solve for B.

5 = B - 5
10 = B

Use 10 = B in an earlier equation to find A.

A = 5 + B
A = 5 + 10
A = 15

Abe has 15$ and Ben has 10$.

Determine whether the given vectors are orthogonal, parallel or neither. (a) u=[-3,9,6], v=[4,-12,-8,], (b) u=[1,-1,2] v=[2,-1,1
nevsk [136]

Answer:

a) u v= (-3)*(4) + (9)*(-12)+ (6)*(-8)=-168

Since the dot product is not equal to zero then the two vectors are not orthogonal.

|u|= \sqrt{(-3)^2 +(9)^2 +(6)^2}=\sqrt{126}

|v| =\sqrt{(4)^2 +(-12)^2 +(-8)^2}=\sqrt{224}

cos \theta = \frac{uv}{|u| |v|}

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{uv}{|u| |v|})

If we replace we got:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{-168}{\sqrt{126} \sqrt{224}})=cos^{-1} (-1) = \pi

Since the angle between the two vectors is 180 degrees we can conclude that are parallel

b) u v= (1)*(2) + (-1)*(-1)+ (2)*(1)=5

|u|= \sqrt{(1)^2 +(-1)^2 +(2)^2}=\sqrt{6}

|v| =\sqrt{(2)^2 +(-1)^2 +(1)^2}=\sqrt{6}

cos \theta = \frac{uv}{|u| |v|}

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{uv}{|u| |v|})

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{5}{\sqrt{6} \sqrt{6}})=cos^{-1} (\frac{5}{6}) = 33.557

Since the angle between the two vectors is not 0 or 180 degrees we can conclude that are either.

c) u v= (a)*(-b) + (b)*(a)+ (c)*(0)=-ab +ba +0 = -ab+ab =0

Since the dot product is equal to zero then the two vectors are orthogonal.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each case first we need to calculate the dot product of the vectors, and after this if the dot product is not equal to 0 we can calculate the angle between the two vectors in order to see if there are parallel or not.

Part a

u=[-3,9,6], v=[4,-12,-8,]

The dot product on this case is:

u v= (-3)*(4) + (9)*(-12)+ (6)*(-8)=-168

Since the dot product is not equal to zero then the two vectors are not orthogonal.

Now we can calculate the magnitude of each vector like this:

|u|= \sqrt{(-3)^2 +(9)^2 +(6)^2}=\sqrt{126}

|v| =\sqrt{(4)^2 +(-12)^2 +(-8)^2}=\sqrt{224}

And finally we can calculate the angle between the vectors like this:

cos \theta = \frac{uv}{|u| |v|}

And the angle is given by:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{uv}{|u| |v|})

If we replace we got:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{-168}{\sqrt{126} \sqrt{224}})=cos^{-1} (-1) = \pi

Since the angle between the two vectors is 180 degrees we can conclude that are parallel

Part b

u=[1,-1,2] v=[2,-1,1]

The dot product on this case is:

u v= (1)*(2) + (-1)*(-1)+ (2)*(1)=5

Since the dot product is not equal to zero then the two vectors are not orthogonal.

Now we can calculate the magnitude of each vector like this:

|u|= \sqrt{(1)^2 +(-1)^2 +(2)^2}=\sqrt{6}

|v| =\sqrt{(2)^2 +(-1)^2 +(1)^2}=\sqrt{6}

And finally we can calculate the angle between the vectors like this:

cos \theta = \frac{uv}{|u| |v|}

And the angle is given by:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{uv}{|u| |v|})

If we replace we got:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{5}{\sqrt{6} \sqrt{6}})=cos^{-1} (\frac{5}{6}) = 33.557

Since the angle between the two vectors is not 0 or 180 degrees we can conclude that are either.

Part c

u=[a,b,c] v=[-b,a,0]

The dot product on this case is:

u v= (a)*(-b) + (b)*(a)+ (c)*(0)=-ab +ba +0 = -ab+ab =0

Since the dot product is equal to zero then the two vectors are orthogonal.

Find the measure of the missing angle
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Approximately 35, or 34.67

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a cosine (adjacent over hypotenuse) equation.

cos38 = x/44

Move the 44 over and plug into the calcultaor.

x = 44cos38

(make sure the mode is on degree and not radian!)

Step-by-step explanation:

because if he turns right 90 he will get to school but if he turns left 90 he might get half way to the golf course. And since it doesn't specify there is no way in knowing which way to turn
