Since each vector is a member of \mathbb R^3, the vectors will span \mathbb R^3 if they form a basis for \mathbb R^3, which requires that they be linearly independent of one another.

To show this, you have to establish that the only linear combination of the three vectors c_1\mathbf v_1+c_2\mathbf v_2+c_3\mathbf v_3 that gives the zero vector \mathbf0 occurs for scalars c_1=c_2=c_3=0.

c_1\begin{bmatrix}3\\2\\1\end{bmatrix}+c_2\begin{bmatrix}-1\\-2\\-4\end{bmatrix}+c_3\begin{bmatrix}1\\1\\-1\end{bmatrix}=(0,0,0)\iff\begin{bmatrix}3&-1&1\\2&-2&1\\1&-4&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}c_1\\c_2\\c_3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\\0\end{bmatrix}

Solving this, you'll find that c_1=c_2=c_3=0, so the vectors are indeed linearly independent, thus forming a basis for \mathbb R^3 and therefore they must span \mathbb R^3.

F(x)=-2x^2+4x+5<br> Find the critical numbers
frez [133]

Answer:

To find critical points, take the first derivative and set it equal to zero:

f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x + 5

f'(x) = -4x + 4

-4x+4 = 0

-4x = -4

x = 1

Critical point at x = 1

Alternatively, if you mean zeros, or where the x intersects, you can use the quadratic equation.

Alexander and Jo live 5 miles apart. They decide to leave their homes at 3 p.M. And travel toward each other. If Alexander bikes
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is an illustration of the problem:

             ----------------------------->|<------------------

            A                                  t                     J

Alex and Jo start from their separate homes and drive towards one another.  The t indicates the time at which they meet, which is the same time for both.  Filling in a d = rt table:

              d           =        r        x        t

Alex                              14                t

Jo                                   6                t

The formula for motion is d = rt, so that means that Alex's distance is 14t and Jo's distance is 6t.

             

                      14t                               6t

   ---------------------------------->|<------------------

   A                                       t                      J

The distance between them is 5 miles, so that means that Alex's distance plus Jo's distance equals 5 miles.  In equation form:

14t + 6t = 5 and

20t = 5 so

t = .25 hours or 15 minutes.

If they leave their homes at 3 and they meet 15 minutes later, then they meet at 3:15.
