Answer:(a) BA = (-3,2)   (b) BC = (-9,6)

Step-by-step explanation: (a) Vector BA = position vector of B - position vector of A = vector OB - vector OA = (3-6) i + (4-2) j = -3i+2j [i, j are unit vectors along x and y-axis respectively]. Also vector BA=(-3,2).                     (b) Vector BC = position vector of B - position vector of C = vector OB - vector OC = (3-12) i + (4-(-2)) j = -9i+6j [i, j are unit vectors along x and y-axis respectively]. Also vector BA=(-9,6).

Find the angle 0 between the vectors. u=(1, 1, 1, 0), v = (4, 4, 4, 4).
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

u dot v=1*4+1*4+1*4+0*4=4+4+4+0=12

|u|=sqrt(1^2+1^2+1^2+0^2)=sqrt(3)

|v|=sqrt(4^2+4^2+4^2+4^2)=sqrt(4*4^2)=2*4=8

cos(theta)=u dot v/(|u||v|)

cos(theta)=12/(sqrt(3)*8)

cos(theta)=3/(sqrt(3)*2)

cos(theta)=sqrt(3)/2

theta=30 degrees

On Monday Harold picked up four donuts and two large coffees for the office staff. He paid 4.08. On Tuesday Melinda picked up tw
Mandarinka [93]
One way to look at this is to make 2 equations and treat it as a set of equations. We will make the cost of a donut equal to x, and the cost of a coffee equal to y.

Harold's order:
4x + 2y = 4.08

Melinda's order:
2x + 3y = 3.92

To combine these equations, we need to cancel out either x or y:
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>2x + 3y = 3.92
</span>
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>4x + 6y = 7.84
</span>
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>-4x - 6y = -7.84
</span>
We can now combine these equations:
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>-4x - 6y = -7.84
</span>
-4y = -3.76

y = 0.94

Therefore the cost of a large coffee is $0.94. We can plug this into either original equation to find the cost of a donut.
<span>4x + 2y = 4.08
</span>4x + 2(0.94) = 4.08
4x + 1.88 = 4.08
4x = 2.20
x = 0.55

The cost of a donut is $0.55, and the cost of a large coffee is $0.94.
