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.

Whats the missing varible for the following questions ​
marta [7]

Answers + Explanation:

1. x + 7 =10

if you know some number + 7 is 10, you know that number must be 3.

so, x = 3

the other way you can solve this would be:

x + 7 = 10

subtract 7 from both sides of the equation

x + 7 - 7 = 10 - 7

x = 3

2. Use the same strategy:

x - 8 = -5

add 8 to both sides of the equation

x - 8 + 8 = -5 + 8

x = 3

3. x + 3 = 6

subtract 3 from both sides of the equation

x + 3 - 3 = 6 - 3

x = 3

4. x + 6 = 3

subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

x + 6 - 6 = 3 - 6

x = -3
