Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find the angle between 2 vectors is
which is the dot product of u*v over the (magnitude of u times the magnitude of v). We also know that θ = 
. Filling in that formula requires us to find the dot product of u and v, which is
u·v = (2×(-6)) + (a×8) so
u·v = -12 + 8a. Then we need the magnitudes of both u and v:
and
Putting all of together looks like this:
. Cross multiply to get
which is tricky to simplify. You really need to know the rules for multiplying radicals to do this correctly. The simplification is
and we need to solve for a. Begin by squaring both sides to get rid of the square root to get:
100(8 + 2a²) = 256a² - 768a +576 and simplify some more by distributing through the parenthesis to get
800 + 200a² = 256a² -768a + 576. Combine like terms to come up with
0 = 56a² - 768a - 224 and we need to factor that. Assuming since you're this far in math (pre-calc or maybe late algebra 2) you know how to factor, when you do, you get values for a of - .285714... and 14.
Therefore, the value for a is 14. I checked it...it works

Answer:
456
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dollar equals 10 dimes.
So $45.60 would equal 456 dimes
Answer:
5 11/12 cups of melon
Step-by-step explanation:
The cups of melon he puts in the fruit salad is:
Number of cups of orange melon + Number of cups of green melon
= 3 1/4 cups + 2 2/3 cups
3 + 2 + (1/4 + 2/3)
The Least common denominator is 12
5 + (3 × 1 +4 × 2/12)
5 + (3 +8/12)
5 11/12 cups
Therefore, Jason put in 5 11/12 cups of melon in the fruit salad.
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 - 2x = -3 - -1
2 - 2x = -4
-2x = -6
-2x / -2 = 1x
-6 / -2 = 3
ur answer is then 1x = 3 or x = 3.
