Answer: 109.1 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the angle between the given vectors, we will use the formula below:

Cos(θ) = (U.V)/ |U|.|V|

Where

U = 13i - 8j

V = 2i + 9j

U.V = (2x13) + (-8×9)

U.V = 26 - 72

U.V = - 46

|U| = sqrt ( 13^2 + 8^2)

= sqrt ( 233) = 15.264

|V| = sqrt( 2^2 + 9^2)

= sqrt ( 85 ) = 9.22

Substitute all the value of the parameters into the formula

Cos ø = -46 / (15.3 × 9.2)

Cos ø = - 46 / 140.72

Cos Ø = - 32687

Find the cos inverse of the value

Ø = cos^-1( -32687)

Ø = 109.079 degrees

Therefore, the angle between the given vectors to the nearest tenth of a degree is 109.1 degrees

Amelie is making a recipe that uses 1 3/4 cups flour. She is making 2 1/2 times the original recipe.

Answer:

She would need $4\frac{3}{8}$ flour to make $2\frac{1}{2}$ times the recipe.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make 1 recipe Amelia uses = $1 \frac{3}{4}\ cups$ of flour.

So, to make $2\frac{1}{2}$ times the recipe she would need = $1 \frac{3}{4}\times 2\frac{1}{2}$ .

We evaluate the above mixed numbers by converting them to fraction(by multiplying denominator with whole number and adding to numerator and write as fraction of same denominator.).

$=\frac{7}{4}\times \frac{5}{2}$

$=\frac{35}{8}$

Then converting back to mixed number (by dividing the numerator by denominator and writing the quotient as the whole number and the remainder as fraction with same denominator.

$\frac{35}{8}=4\frac{3}{8}$
