Answer:

Tom was speeding.

Step-by-step explanation:

The driving speed of Tom = 20.3 meters per second.

Speed allowed in the zone = 45 miles per hour zone.

Since the unit of speed allowed is given in miles per hour but the speed of tom is given in meters per second. So, first, we have to convert the meter per second into mile per hour then we can compare and find that Tom is speeding or not.  

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

1 hour = 3600 second

Now convert 20.3 into mile per hour.

20.3 meters per second. = (20.3 / 1609.34)*3600 = 45.40981 mile per hour.

Since Tom’s speed is more than the allowed speed so he is speeding.

The mean amount purchased by a typical customer at Churchill’s Grocery Store is $23.50, with a standard deviation of $5.00. Assu
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: 0.0170

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mean amount purchased by a typical customer at Churchill’s Grocery Store is $23.50, with a standard deviation of $5.00.

i.e. \mu=23.50

\sigma=5

We assume the distribution of amounts purchased follows the normal distribution.

Sample size : n=50

Let \overline{x} be the sample mean.

Formula : z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

Then, the probability that the sample mean is at least $25.00 will be :-

P(\overline{x}\geq\25.00)=P(\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}\geq\dfrac{25-23.50}{\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{50}}})\\\\=P(z\geq2.12)\\\\=1-P(z

Hence, the likelihood the sample mean is at least $25.00= 0.0170

Match each vector operation with its resultant vector expressed as a linear combination of the unit vectors i and j.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

3u - 2v + w = 69i + 19j.

8u - 6v = 184i + 60j.

7v - 4w = -128i + 62j.

u - 5w = -9i + 37j.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that there are multiple ways to denote a vector. For example, vector u can be written either in bold typeface "u" or with an arrow above it \vec{u}. This explanation uses both representations.

\displaystyle \vec{u} = \langle 11, 12\rangle =\left(\begin{array}{c}11 \\12\end{array}\right).

\displaystyle \vec{v} = \langle -16, 6\rangle= \left(\begin{array}{c}-16 \\6\end{array}\right).

\displaystyle \vec{w} = \langle 4, -5\rangle=\left(\begin{array}{c}4 \\-5\end{array}\right).

There are two components in each of the three vectors. For example, in vector u, the first component is 11 and the second is 12. When multiplying a vector with a constant, multiply each component by the constant. For example,

3\;\vec{v} = 3\;\left(\begin{array}{c}11 \\12\end{array}\right) = \left(\begin{array}{c}3\times 11 \\3 \times 12\end{array}\right) = \left(\begin{array}{c}33 \\36\end{array}\right).

So is the case when the constant is negative:

-2\;\vec{v} = (-2)\; \left(\begin{array}{c}-16 \\6\end{array}\right) =\left(\begin{array}{c}(-2) \times (-16) \\(-2)\times(-6)\end{array}\right) = \left(\begin{array}{c}32 \\12\end{array}\right).

When adding two vectors, add the corresponding components (this phrase comes from Wolfram Mathworld) of each vector. In other words, add the number on the same row to each other. For example, when adding 3u to (-2)v,

3\;\vec{u} + (-2)\;\vec{v} = \left(\begin{array}{c}33 \\36\end{array}\right) + \left(\begin{array}{c}32 \\12\end{array}\right) = \left(\begin{array}{c}33 + 32 \\36+12\end{array}\right) = \left(\begin{array}{c}65\\48\end{array}\right).

Apply the two rules for the four vector operations.

<h3>1.</h3>

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}3\;\vec{u} - 2\;\vec{v} + \vec{w} &= 3\;\left(\begin{array}{c}11 \\12\end{array}\right) + (-2)\;\left(\begin{array}{c}-16 \\6\end{array}\right) + \left(\begin{array}{c}4 \\-5\end{array}\right)\\&= \left(\begin{array}{c}3\times 11 + (-2)\times (-16) + 4\\ 3\times 12 + (-2)\times 6 + (-5) \end{array}\right)\\&=\left(\begin{array}{c}69\\19\end{array}\right) = \langle 69, 19\rangle\end{aligned}

Rewrite this vector as a linear combination of two unit vectors. The first component 69 will be the coefficient in front of the first unit vector, i. The second component 19 will be the coefficient in front of the second unit vector, j.

\displaystyle \left(\begin{array}{c}69\\19\end{array}\right) = \langle 69, 19\rangle = 69\;\vec{i} + 19\;\vec{j}.

<h3>2.</h3>

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}8\;\vec{u} - 6\;\vec{v} &= 8\;\left(\begin{array}{c}11\\12\end{array}\right) + (-6) \;\left(\begin{array}{c}-16\\6\end{array}\right)\\&=\left(\begin{array}{c}88+96\\96 - 36\end{array}\right)\\&= \left(\begin{array}{c}184\\60\end{array}\right)= \langle 184, 60\rangle\\&=184\;\vec{i} + 60\;\vec{j} \end{aligned}.

<h3>3.</h3>

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}7\;\vec{v} - 4\;\vec{w} &= 7\;\left(\begin{array}{c}-16\\6\end{array}\right) + (-4) \;\left(\begin{array}{c}4\\-5\end{array}\right)\\&=\left(\begin{array}{c}-112 - 16\\42+20\end{array}\right)\\&= \left(\begin{array}{c}-128\\62\end{array}\right)= \langle -128, 62\rangle\\&=-128\;\vec{i} + 62\;\vec{j} \end{aligned}.

<h3>4.</h3>

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\;\vec{u} - 5\;\vec{w} &= \left(\begin{array}{c}11\\12\end{array}\right) + (-5) \;\left(\begin{array}{c}4\\-5\end{array}\right)\\&=\left(\begin{array}{c}11-20\\12+25\end{array}\right)\\&= \left(\begin{array}{c}-9\\37\end{array}\right)= \langle -9, 37\rangle\\&=-9\;\vec{i} + 37\;\vec{j} \end{aligned}.
