Answer:

the angle between u=(8, -2) and v=(9,3) is 32.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

u=(8,-2)=(u1,u2)→u1=8, u2=-2

v=(9,3)=(v1,v2)→v1=9, v2=3

We can find the angle between two vectors using the formula of dot product:

u . v =║u║║v║cos α   (1)

And the dot product is:

u . v = u1 v1 + u2 v2

u . v = (8)(9)+(-2)(3)

u . v = 72-6

u . v = 66


║u║=√(u1²+u2²)

║u║=√((8)²+(-2)²)

║u║=√(64+4)

║u║=√(68)

║u║=√((4)(17))

║u║=√(4)√(17)

║u║=2√(17)


║v║=√(v1²+v2²)

║v║=√((9)²+(3)²)

║v║=√(81+9)

║v║=√(90)

║v║=√((9)(10))

║v║=√(9)√(10)

║v║=3√(10)


Replacing the known values in the formula of dot product (1):

u . v =║u║║v║cos α

66 = 2√(17) 3√(10) cos α

Multiplying:

66 = 6√((17)(10)) cos α

66 = 6√(170) cos α

Solving first for cos α: Dividing both sides of the equation by 6√(170):

\frac{66}{6\sqrt{170} }=\frac{6\sqrt{170}cos \alpha}{6\sqrt{170} }

\frac{66}{6\sqrt{170}}=cos\alpha

Simplifying: Dividing the numerator and denominator on the left side of the equation by 6:

(66/6)/(6√170/6)=cosα→11/√170=cosα→cosα=11/√170

cosα=11/13.03840481→cosα=0.84366149

\alpha=cos^{-1}0.84366149\\\alpha=32.47119205^{\°}\\ \alpha=32.5^{\°}

What is the average rate of change for this exponential function for the interval from x=2 to x=4?
mario62 [17]

The equation to calculate the average rate of change is: y/x

y = f(x2) - f(x1)x = x2 - x1

x1: 1 (The smaller x value. It can be any number)x2: 2 (The larger x value. It also can be any number)f(x1): The value when you plug x1 into the function.f(x2): The value when you plug x2 into the function.

If we know this, the variables for this problem are assuming the function is 10(5.5)^x:

x2: 2x1: 1f(x2): 10(5.5)^(2) = 302.5f(x1): 10(5.5)^(1)= 55

This means:y = 302.5  - 55 = 247.5x = 2 - 1 = 1

Remember: the equation for avg rate of change is y/x

So, our average rate of change for the function on the interval [1,2] is 247.5 (y/x = 247.5/1)
