Let u = (1, k) and v = (2, 1). Find k such that The distance between u and v is 1 u and v are orthogonal The angle between u and

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:k=1,k=-2,k= $8\pm 5\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two vectors

$u=1\hat{i}+k\hat{j}$

$v=2\hat{i}+1\hat{j}$

$\left ( i\right )$ Distance between them is given by

$|u-v|=\sqrt{\left ( 2-1\right )^2+\left ( 1-k\right )^2}=1$

squaring both side

$1^{2}+\left ( 1-k\right )^2=1$

$k^2-2k+1=0$

$\left ( k-1\right )^2=0$

k=1

$\left ( ii\right )$

angle between u and v is 90 i.e. orthogonal

$u\dot v=0$

$\left ( 1\hat{i}+k\hat{j}\right )\dot \left ( 2\hat{i}+1\hat{j}\right )$ =0

2+k=0

k=-2

$\left ( iii\right )$

angle between u & v is $\frac{\pi }{3}$

$u\dot v=|u||v|cos\left (\frac{\pi }{3}\right )$

$|u|=\sqrt{1^2+k^2}$

$|v|=\sqrt{2^2+1^2}$

$2+k=\left ( \sqrt{1+k^2}\right )\left ( \sqrt{5}\right )cos\left ( \frac{\pi }{3}\right )$

$\left ( 4+2\right )^2=\left ( 1+k^2\right )5$

$k^2-16k-11$ =0

k= $8\pm 5\sqrt{3}$

3 in the power of ten word form

Ludmilka [50]

3 in the power of ten means "10^3."

$10^3$

How to solve exponents is to multiply the number as many times as it's exponent. So in this case you will have to multiply ten, three times.

$10\times10\times10=1000$

Which would mean that....

$10^3=1000$

The answer is 10^3.

Hope this helps.

Prove: cos(x+y)/cosxsiny=coty-tanx

Doss [256]

Cos (x+y)/cos x sin y

= cos x cos y - sin x sin y / cos x sin y

= cos x cos y/cos x sin y - sin x sin y / cos x sin y

A geologist has collected 5 specimens of basaltic rock and 7 specimens of granite. The geologist instructs a laboratory assistan

MaRussiya [10]

The rocks are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question. First we get the parameters, and then we answer the questions. From this, we get that:

$E(X) = 5.25, Var(X) = 0.5966$
P(X < 6) = 0.9545
P(all specimens of one of the two types of rock are selected for analysis) = 0.2046.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The mean and the variance are:

$\mu = \frac{nk}{N}$

$\sigma^2 = \frac{nk(N-k)(N-n)}{N^2(N-1)}$

We have that:

5 + 7 = 12 rocks, which means that $N = 12$

9 are chosen, which means that $n = 9$

7 are granite, which means that $k = 7$

Question a:

$E(X) = \mu = \frac{9\times7}{12} = 5.25$

$Var(X) = \sigma^2 = \frac{9\times7(12-7)(12-9)}{12^2(12-1)} = 0.5966$

Thus:

$E(X) = 5.25, Var(X) = 0.5966$

Question b:

Since there are only 5 specimens of basaltic rock, at least 9 - 5 = 4 specimens of granite are needed, which means that:

$P(X < 6) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 4) = h(4,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,4}*C_{5,5}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.1591$

$P(X = 5) = h(5,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,5}*C_{5,4}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.4773$

$P(X = 6) = h(6,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,6}*C_{5,3}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.3181$

Thus

$P(X < 6) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.1591 + 0.4773 + 0.3181 = 0.9545$

So P(X < 6) = 0.9545.

Question c:

5 of basaltic and 4 of granite: 0.1591 probability.

7 of granite is P(X = 7), in which

$P(X = 7) = h(7,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,7}*C_{5,2}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.0455$

0.1591 + 0.0455 = 0.2046, thus:

P(all specimens of one of the two types of rock are selected for analysis) = 0.2046.
