The "dot product" of two vectors has several different formulas.
Since you are given the x- and y-coordinates of both vectors a and b, we can apply the formula
a dot b = ax*bx + ay*by, where ax=x-component of vector a, by=y comp of vector b, and so on.
So, for the problem at hand, ax * bx + ay * by becomes
3(-2) + (-8)(-6) = -6 + 48 = 42 (answer). Note that the dot product (or "scalar product" is itself a scalar.
Answer:
Try B Or C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
In order to find the value of s, we must isolate the s variable in this equation, so the first step should be subtracting 3 5/6 from both sides of this equation. In order to subtract, we multiply each denominator to get 42, and multiply the numerator by the same amount, and subtract the number from both sides:
s + 3 35/42 = 9 6/42
s = 5 13/42
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 
You can write this as (-infinity, 7) if you aren't able to use the infinity symbol.
====================================================
Explanation:
Think of x < 7 as writing 
So x is between negative infinity and 7, excluding both endpoints.
To write in interval notation, we write
The curved parenthesis tell us to exclude the endpoint.
Answer:
21, 17, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the mean of the 2 given values
mean = 
= 
= 17
Noe find the mean of 25 and 17 and 17 and 9
mean = 
= 
= 21 and
mean = 
= 
= 13
Thus the 3 means are 21, 17 and 13, that is
25, 21, 17, 13, 9
