Answer:

The angle between (2,2,4) and (2,-1,1) is 60º.

Step-by-step explanation:

From linear algebra, we can determine the angle between both vectors by definition of dot point:

\cos \theta = \frac{\vec u\bullet \vec v}{\|\vec u\|\cdot \| \vec v\|} (1)

Where:

\vec u, \vec v - Vectors.

\|\vec u\|, \|\vec v\| - Norms of vectors.

\theta - Angle between vectors, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

If we know that \vec u = (2,2,4) and \vec v = (2,-1,1), then angle between vectors is:

\|\vec u\| = \sqrt{\vec u\bullet \vec u} (2)

\|\vec u\| = \sqrt{2^{2}+2^{2}+4^{2}}

\|\vec u\| \approx 4.899

\|\vec v\| = \sqrt{\vec v\bullet \vec v} (3)

\|\vec v\| = \sqrt{2^{2}+(-1)^{2}+1^{2}}

\|\vec v\| \approx 2.450

\vec u \bullet \vec v = (2,2,4)\bullet (2,-1,1)

\vec u \bullet \vec v = 4-2+4

\vec u \bullet \vec v = 6

\cos \theta = \frac{6}{(4.899)\cdot (2.450)}

\cos \theta = 0.5

\theta = 60^{\circ}

The angle between (2,2,4) and (2,-1,1) is 60º.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (-1, 4) and (0, 2)
MrMuchimi

Answer:

y = -2x + 2

General Formulas and Concepts

<u>Pre-Alg</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

  • m - slope
  • b - y-intercept

Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Point (-1, 4)

y-intercept (0, 2)

<u>Step 2: Find slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    m=\frac{2-4}{0+1}
  2. Subtract/Add:               m=\frac{-2}{1}
  3. Divide:                          m=-2

<u>Step 3: Write linear equation</u>

y = -2x + 2

How do you write 13/20 as a decimal? ( Hint: Find the factor that will make the denominator 100 and multiply that factor to the
seraphim [82]

Answer:

0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

To get 13/20 to a decimal, the denominator needs to be multiplied by 5 to make it 100. If you multiply the denominator, you also have the multiply the numerator to make it equal. 13 x 5 is 65. The fraction is 65/100, which is 0.65 in decimal form.
