Find two unit vectos that are orthogonal to both [0,1,2] and [1,-2,3]

Mathematics

Answer:

Let the vectors be

a = [0, 1, 2] and

b = [1, -2, 3]

( 1 ) The cross product of a and b (a x b) is the vector that is perpendicular (orthogonal) to a and b.

Let the cross product be another vector c.

To find the cross product (c) of a and b, we have

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\0&1&2\\1&-2&3\end{array}\right]

c = i(3 + 4) - j(0 - 2) + k(0 - 1)

c = 7i + 2j - k

c = [7, 2, -1]

( 2 ) Convert the orthogonal vector (c) to a unit vector using the formula:

c / | c |

Where | c | = √ (7)² + (2)² + (-1)²  = 3√6

Therefore, the unit vector is

\frac{[7,2,-1]}{3\sqrt{6} }

or

[ \frac{7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

The other unit vector which is also orthogonal to a and b is calculated by multiplying the first unit vector by -1. The result is as follows:

[ \frac{-7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

In conclusion, the two unit vectors are;

[ \frac{7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

and

[ \frac{-7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

Simplify the polynomial expressions by combining like terms, and then multiply the resulting
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The simplified expression is

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

We must first rewrite the expression as a product of two binomials.

This can be done by adding like terms

(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

We have,

(4x-9)(5x+3)

Multiplying the resulting binomial expression

(4x-9)(5x+3)

(20x^2+12x-45x-27)

Add the like terms

20x^2-33x-27

The simplified expression is

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Twenty x squared minus thirty-three x minus twenty-seven

andreev551 [17]
So since each pack has 6 packs we need to multiple. 6x8= 48.

There were 48 diet sodas in the cooler. 40 were drank. The fraction would be 40/48 were drank or 8/48 cans were not drunk.

For the lowest term, it would be 1/6 for 8/48 and 5/24 for 40/48.

Good luck with your studies! <3

What is the equation of a line with slope −23 and a y-intercept of −4 ?
Ivan

Answer:

y = - 23x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 23 and c = - 4, thus

y = - 23x - 4 ← equation of line
