Expand each vector as linear combinations of the standard basis vectors:

(7, 9, 6) = 7(1, 0, 0) + 9(0, 1, 0) + 6(0, 0, 1)

(-4, 1, 5) = -4(1, 0, 0) + (0, 1, 0) + 5(0, 0, 1)

For brevity, write

i = (1, 0, 0)

j = (0, 1, 0)

k = (0, 0, 1)

Then by definition of the cross product,

i x i = j x j = k x k = (0, 0, 0)

i x j = k

j x k = i

k x i = j

and for any two vectors a and b, we have a x b = - b x a.

Now compute the product:

(7i + 9j + 6k) x (-4i + j + 5k)

= -28 (i x i) - 36 (j x i) - 24 (k x i)

...   + 7 (i x j) + 9 (j x j) + 6 (k x j)

...   + 35 (i x k) + 45 (j x k) + 30 (k x k)

= -36 (-k) - 24 j + 7 k + 6 (-i) + 35 (-j) + 45 i

= 39 i - 59 j + 43 k

which is the same as the vector

(39, -59, 43)

And yes, this vector is perpendicular to both given vectors.

Elena plans to ride her bicycle 5 miles to a park and then ride several times
Aneli [31]

Option A

Elena need to ride around the  loop four or more times

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Elena plans to ride her bicycle 5 miles to a park and then ride several times  around a loop in the park that is 3 miles long

Then she will ride the same way  home

She wants to ride a total of at least 22 miles

<em><u>Given inequality is:</u></em>

3t + 10 > 22

Where "t" is the number of times Elena rides around the loop

<em><u>Solve fot "t" in given inequality</u></em>

3t + 10 > 22

Subtract 10 both sides

3t + 10 - 10 > 22 - 10

3t > 12

Divide by 3 both sides

t > 4

The solution is all real numbers greater than or equal to 4

Which means 4 or more times

Therefore, Option A is correct.
