Recall that for 3 vectors a,b,c, all in \mathbb R^3, the vector triple product

a\times(b\times c)=(a\cdot c)b-(a\cdot b)c

So

(v\times w)\times(w\times u)=((v\times w)\cdot u)w-((v\times w)\cdot w)u

Also recall the scalar triple product,

a\cdot(b\times c)

which gives the signed volume of the parallelipiped generated by the three vectors a,b,c. When either a=b or a=c, the parallelipepid is degenerate and has 0 volume, so

(v\times w)\cdot w=0

and the above reduces to

(v\times w)\times(w\times u)=((v\times w)\cdot u)w

so that

(u\times v)\cdot[(v\times w)\times(w\times u)]=(u\times v)\cdot((v\times w)\cdot u)w

The scalar triple product has the following property:

a\cdot(b\times c)=b\cdot(c\times a)=c\cdot(a\times b)

Since (v\times w)\cdot u is a scalar, we can factor it out to get

((v\times w)\cdot u)((u\times v)\cdot w)

and by the property above we have

(u\times v)\cdot w=u\cdot(v\times w)

and so we end up with

[u\cdot(v\times w)]^2

as required.

Use: Ck = k! (n-k)!
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

3 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this question:

2 meats from a set of 3(steak, fish or chicken). So

C_{3,2} = \frac{3!}{2!1!} = 3

3 ways.

A. the end of the equation is a set amount because there is no exponent with it, so the answer would be 11.32

B) replace x with 10 and solve the equation:

y = 1.84(10) +11.32 = 18.40 + 11.32 = $29.72

C) The number with the exponent would be the increase per hour, the answer would be $1.84
