snow_tiger [21]

The answer is 30 because 1/8 of 40 is 5 so 40-5 = 35 and 1/7 of 35 is 5 so 35-5 = 30

Find two unit vectors orthogonal to both given vectors. i j k, 4i k

Maurinko [17]

The cross product of two vectors gives a third vector $\mathbf v$ that is orthogonal to the first two.

$\mathbf v=(\vec i+\vec j+\vec k)\times(4\,\vec i+\vec k)=\begin{vmatrix}\vec i&\vec j&\vec k\\1&1&1\\4&0&1\end{vmatrix}=\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\,\vec k$

Normalize this vector by dividing it by its norm:

$\dfrac{\mathbf v}{\|\mathbf v\|}=\dfrac{\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\,\vec k}{\sqrt{1^2+3^2+(-4)^2}}=\dfrac1{\sqrt{26}}(\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\vec k)$

To get another vector orthogonal to the first two, you can just change the sign and use $-\mathbf v$ .

Comparing the two ratios 2/4 and 1/2 2/4 is larger

kumpel [21]

Answer:

3.5 : 7 > 1.2 : 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Compare the ratios 4 : 5 and 2 : 3.

Solution:

Express the given ratios as fraction

4 : 5 = 4/5 and 2 : 3 =2/3

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3 is 15.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 15, we have

4/5 = (4 ×3)/(5 ×3) = 12/15 and 2/3 = (2 ×5)/(3 ×5) = 10/15

Clearly, 12 > 10

Now, 12/15 > 10/15

Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3.

2. Compare the ratios 5 : 6 and 7 : 9.

Solution:

Express the given ratios as fraction

5 : 6 = 5/6 and 7 : 9 =7/9

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 6 and 9

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 6 and 9 is 18.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 18, we have

5/6 = (5 ×3)/(6 ×3) = 15/18 and 7/9 = (7 ×2)/(9 ×2) = 14/18

Clearly, 15 > 14

Now, 15/18 > 14/18

Therefore, 5 : 6 > 7 : 9.

3. Compare the ratios 1.2 : 2.5 and 3.5 : 7.

Solution:

1.2 : 2.5 = 1.2/2.5 and 3.5 : 7 =3.5/7

1.2/2.5 = (1.2 ×10)/(2.5 ×10 ) = 12/25 and 3.5/7 = (3.5 ×10)/(7 ×10) = 35/70 = 1/2

[We removed the decimal point from the ratios now, we will compare the ratio]

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 25 and 2

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 25 and 2 is 50.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 50, we have

= 12/25 = (12 ×2)/(25 ×2) = 24/50 and 1/2 = (1 ×25)/(2 ×25) = 25/50

Now, 25/50 > 24/50

Therefore, 3.5 : 7 > 1.2 : 2.5.
