Answer:

Area = w x (5+ 8 w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula for the area of a rectangle: Area=with x length

You are suggested to use "w" to represent the width of the pen.

Now, they give you information about the length of the pen in word form.

We are converting those words into an algebraic expression:

"The length of the pen is 5 more than 8 times the width of the pen"

Length = 5 + 8 w

So we replace the length of the pen with this expression in the area formula:

Area = w x (5+ 8 w)

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day

in exercises 15-20 find the vector component of u along a and the vecomponent of u orthogonal to a u=(2,1,1,2) a=(4,-4,2,-2)

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The component of $\vec u$ orthogonal to $\vec a$ is $\vec u_{\perp\,\vec a} = \left(\frac{9}{5},\frac{6}{5},\frac{9}{10},\frac{21}{10}\right)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $\vec u$ and $\vec a$ , from Linear Algebra we get that component of $\vec u$ parallel to $\vec a$ by using this formula:

$\vec u_{\parallel \,\vec a} = \frac{\vec u \bullet\vec a}{\|\vec a\|^{2}} \cdot \vec a$ (Eq. 1)

Where $\|\vec a\|$ is the norm of $\vec a$ , which is equal to $\|\vec a\| = \sqrt{\vec a\bullet \vec a}$ . (Eq. 2)

If we know that $\vec u =(2,1,1,2)$ and $\vec a=(4,-4,2,-2)$ , then we get that vector component of $\vec u$ parallel to $\vec a$ is:

$\vec u_{\parallel\,\vec a} = \left[\frac{(2)\cdot (4)+(1)\cdot (-4)+(1)\cdot (2)+(2)\cdot (-2)}{4^{2}+(-4)^{2}+2^{2}+(-2)^{2}} \right]\cdot (4,-4,2,-2)$

$\vec u_{\parallel\,\vec a} =\frac{1}{20}\cdot (4,-4,2,-2)$

$\vec u_{\parallel\,\vec a} =\left(\frac{1}{5},-\frac{1}{5},\frac{1}{10},-\frac{1}{10} \right)$

Lastly, we find the vector component of $\vec u$ orthogonal to $\vec a$ by applying this vector sum identity:

$\vec u_{\perp\,\vec a} = \vec u - \vec u_{\parallel\,\vec a}$ (Eq. 3)

If we get that $\vec u =(2,1,1,2)$ and $\vec u_{\parallel\,\vec a} =\left(\frac{1}{5},-\frac{1}{5},\frac{1}{10},-\frac{1}{10} \right)$ , the vector component of $\vec u$ is:

$\vec u_{\perp\,\vec a} = (2,1,1,2)-\left(\frac{1}{5},-\frac{1}{5},\frac{1}{10},-\frac{1}{10} \right)$

$\vec u_{\perp\,\vec a} = \left(\frac{9}{5},\frac{6}{5},\frac{9}{10},\frac{21}{10}\right)$

The component of $\vec u$ orthogonal to $\vec a$ is $\vec u_{\perp\,\vec a} = \left(\frac{9}{5},\frac{6}{5},\frac{9}{10},\frac{21}{10}\right)$ .
