ANSWER

a \cdot \: b =  - 4

EXPLANATION

The dot product of two vectors

a = xi + yj

and

b = mi + nj

is given by

a \cdot \: b = mx + ny

The given vectors are:

a = 4i - 4j

b = 4i + 5j

Applying the above definition of dot products, we obtain:

a \cdot \: b = 4 \times 4 +  - 4 \times 5

a \cdot \: b = 16   - 20

a \cdot \: b =  - 4

Answer:

value of a.b = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find a.b

a= 4i-4j

b = 4i+5j

We know that i.i =1, j.j=1, i.j =0 and j.i=0

a.b = (4i-4j).(4i+5j)

a.b = 4i(4i+5j)-4j(4i+5j)

a.b = 16i.i +20i.j-16j.i-20j.j

a.b = 16(1) +20(0)-16(0)-20(1)

a.b = 16 +0-0-20

a.b = 16-20

a.b =-4

So, value of a.b = -4

(-3,2) and ( 2,-13) slope intercept equation
Georgia [21]

Given:

The points are (-3, 2) and (2, -13).

To find:

Slope-intercept form of the equation.

Solution:

Here x_1=-3, y_1=2, x_2=2, y_2=-13.

Slope of the line:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

$m=\frac{-13-2}{2-(-3)}

$m=\frac{-15}{5}

m = -3

Using point-slope formula:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y-2=-3(x-(-3))

y-2=-3(x+3)

y-2=-3x-9

Add 2 on both sides.

y-2+2=-3x-9+2

y=-3x-7

Slope-intercept form of the equation is y = -3x - 7.

6. 4p + 5 - 7p = -1​
Ivenika [448]

Answer: p=2

Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you should do is combine any like terms. For you this means combining 4p and -7p. This gives you -3p+5=-1. Then, subtract 5 on each side to eliminate the 5. This gives you -3p=-6. Divide by -3 on each side to allow the p to stand alone. This makes p=2.

If a jelly bean machine contains 16 pink jelly beans, 34 blue jelly beans, 24 black jelly beans, and 26 purple jelly beans, what
Viefleur [7K]
Well out of 100 jelly beans 24 are black so it would be a 24 out of 100 chance to pick a black jelly bean. But that can be simplified down to a 6 out of 25 chance. So your answer is 6/25. Hope this helped. ;)
