The shortest possible height of tower is 24 cm.

Tim used 4 blue blocks and his brother used 3 green blocks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Height of blue block = 6 cm

Height of green block = 8 cm

We will take least common multiple to find the shortest possible height.

6 = 2*3

8 = 2*2*2

LCM = 2*2*2*3 = 24 cm

The shortest possible height of tower is 24 cm.

Number of blue blocks used = \frac{24}{6} = 4

Number of green blocks used = \frac{24}{8} = 3

Tim used 4 blue blocks and his brother used 3 green blocks.

Determine the relationship between the two vecors
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there exists a scalar  

λ

λ

(namely  

λ=a⋅b

λ=a⋅b

) such that  

b=λa

b=λa

, the directions of the two vertices are the same (they are collinear). This implies that  

|a⋅b|=|a||b|

|a⋅b|=|a||b|

.

So,  

|a|=|(a⋅b)b|=|a||b||b|

|a|=|(a⋅b)b|=|a||b||b|

which implies that  

|b|=1

|b|=1
