Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{c}-\frac{8}{\sqrt{117} } \\\frac{7}{\sqrt{117} }\\\frac{2}{\sqrt{117} }\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to find a unit vector in the direction of:

\left[\begin{array}{c}-8\\7\\2\end{array}\right]

Unit Vector, \hat{a}=\dfrac{\overrightarrow{a}}{|\overrightarrow{a}|}

The Modulus of \overrightarrow{a} =\sqrt{(-8)^2+7^2+(-2)^2}=\sqrt{117}

Therefore, the unit vector of the matrix is given as:

\left[\begin{array}{c}-\frac{8}{\sqrt{117} } \\\frac{7}{\sqrt{117} }\\\frac{2}{\sqrt{117} }\end{array}\right]

Assume that there are 365 days in a year, the probability that a person is born on any given day is the same for all days, and e
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If each day equal chance then p = Prob that a person is borne on a particular day = 1/365

Each person is independent of the other and there are two outcomes either borne in July or not

p = prob for one person not borne in July = (365-31)/365 = 334/365

a)Hence prob that no one from n people borne in July = (\frac{334}{365} )^n

b) p = prob of any one borne in July or Aug = \frac{(31+31) }{365} =\frac{62}{365}=0.1698

X- no of people borne in July or Aug

n =15

P(X>=2) =15C2 (0.1698)^2*(1-0.1698)^{13} +15C3 (0.1698)^3*(1-0.1698)^{12} +...+15C15 (0.1698)^{15}

=0.7505

Which value of P and Q result in an equation with no solutions? 83x+P=83x+Q
alekssr [168]

There is no number I can think of that would make the statement untrue.

The result of this when you subtract 83x from both sides leaves you with P = Q.

Unless you know differently, the equation says that P must equal Q no matter what x is. If there is such a condition, it is not obvious.

Given sin theta = 1/3 and 0 theta pi/2 find tan 2 theta
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

\tan2\theta=\pm\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: \sin\theta = \dfrac{1}{3}

0\leq \theta \leq \dfrac{\pi}{2}

Theta lie in first quadrant.

Multiply both sides by 2

0\leq 2\theta \leq \pi

2theta lie in I and II quadrant.

\tan2\theta is positive in I and negative in II quadrant.

\sin\theta=\dfrac{1}{3}

\cos\theta=\dfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}

\sin2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta

\sin2\theta=2\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}\cdot \dfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}=\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{9}

\cos2\theta=\pm \sqrt{1-\sin^22\theta}=\pm\dfrac{7}{9}

\tan2\theta=\dfrac{\sin2\theta}{\cos2\theta}

\tan2\theta=\pm\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{7}

Hence, The value of \tan2\theta=\pm\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{7}

To walk to her friend's house, Cristal normally walks 63 yards north and 16 yards east as shown. How many
ANEK [815]

Answer:

65 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

The image of this walking path of Cristal is missing, so i have attached it.

From the image attached, we can see that the path "x" is the hypotenuse path a the triangle.

Thus, we can use pythagoras theorem to find the area. Thus;

x² = 16² + 63²

x = √(16² + 63²)

x = √4225

x = 65 yd
