Find a.b. a=3i+2j-k, b=4i+5k

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tomtit [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: a\cdot b= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

a=3\hat{i}+2\hat{j}-\hat{k}

b=4\hat{i}+5\hat{k}

They can be written as

a=3\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+(-1)\hat{k}

b=4\hat{i}+0.\hat{j}+5\hat{k}

Now , the dot product of and b is given by :-

\Rightarrow\ a\cdot b= (3\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+(-1)\hat{k})\cdot(4\hat{i}+0.\hat{j}+5\hat{k})

\Rightarrow\ a\cdot b=3\cdot 4 \cdot\hat{i}\cdot\hat{i}+2\cdot0\cdot\hat{j} \cdot\hat{j}+ (-1)\cdot 5 \cdot \hat{k}\cdot \hat{k}

\Rightarrow\ a\cdot b=12 \cdot\hat{i}^2+0-5 \cdot \hat{k}^2

\Rightarrow\ a\cdot b=12 \cdot(1)+0-5 \cdot (1)[Since \hat{i}^2=\hat{k}^2=1]

\Rightarrow\ a\cdot b=12 -5=7  

Therefore , the value of the dot product a\cdot b= 7

Find the x-intercepts/roots of the polynomial function. Also, identify the degree of the polynomial
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7.

roots=-2,-1,1,3

critical points=(-1.5,-3),(0,6),(2,-13)

absolute minimum=-13

End behavior :approaches +infinity

Relative max=6 at (0,6)

Relative min. =-3 at (-1.5,-3)

and -13 at (2,-13)

interval of increase=(-1.5,0)∪(2,∞)

interval of decrease=(-∞,-1.5)∪(0,4)

8.

roots=-1,2

critical points=(0.5,10.5),(4,-10.5)

Abs.max/abs.min=not defined

End behavior:-∞ to +∞

Relative max=10.5

Relative min=-10.5

interval of increase=(-∞,0.5) ∪ (4,∞)

interval of decrease=(0.5,4)

A car uses 1 1/8 gallons of gas to go 13 1/2<br> miles. What is the rate of miles per gallon?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

1 1/8 ga / 13.5 mi = .0833 ga / mi

1 / .0833 ga/mi = 12 mi / ga

or .0833 ga/mi * 13.5 mi = 1.25 ga

Write 0.001742 in scientific notation.
Kobotan [32]

1.742 x 10^-3

<em>This is because you have to move the decimal so there is no non zero digits left in the decimal point and if the number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the "10". If you move the decimal to the right it will be a negative and if you move it to the left it will be a positive. </em>

Andrew
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Let's say Bailey takes "b" days to paint it.

and Andrew takes "a" days to paint the same house.

now, Andrew is 6 times faster than Bailey, therefore, if Andrew takes "a" days to do it, Bailey takes then "6a" days, or b = 6a.

now, the year they worked together, they finished it in 7 days.

so, after 1 day then, they have only done 1/7 of the whole work.

and Andrew for one day, has done 1/a of the house, whilst Bailey has done 1/b of the house or 1/(6a).

\bf \stackrel{\textit{Andrew's rate}}{\cfrac{1}{a}}+\stackrel{\textit{Bailey's rate}}{\cfrac{1}{b}}=\stackrel{\textit{1 day of work}}{\cfrac{1}{7}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{1}{a}+\cfrac{1}{6a}=\cfrac{1}{7}\impliedby &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;\textit{let's multiply all by }\stackrel{LCD}{42a}\textit{ to toss the}\\&#10;denominators&#10;\end{array}

\bf 42a\left( \cfrac{1}{a}+\cfrac{1}{6a} \right)=42a\left( \cfrac{1}{7} \right)\implies 42+7=6a\implies \cfrac{49}{6}=a&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{days}{8\frac{1}{6}}=a&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{how many days will it take Bailey then?}\quad b=6a&#10;\\\\\\&#10;b=6\cdot \cfrac{49}{6}\implies b=\stackrel{days}{49}
