(<em>u</em> × <em>v</em>) • <em>w</em> makes sense, since <em>u</em> × <em>v</em> is another vector, and so (<em>u</em> × <em>v</em>) • <em>w</em> is a scalar.

<em>u</em> × (<em>v</em> • <em>w</em>) does not make sense, since <em>v</em> • <em>w</em> is a scalar, and the cross product is not defined between a vector and a scalar.

(<em>u</em> × <em>v</em>) × <em>w</em> makes sense, since <em>u</em> × <em>v</em> is a vector and so is <em>w</em>.

<em>u</em> • (<em>v</em> • <em>w</em>) does not make sense, since <em>v</em> • <em>w</em> is scalar, and the dot product is not defined between a vector and a scalar.

With compound interest, what happens when you start compounding more and more frequently?
VLD [36.1K]
Your money grows faster because the interest is added back into the principle and then the next time it compounds you get interest on the new principle amount.  So for example, you deposit $100 in an account that gets 5% interest compounded semiannually. The first time it compounds you get $5 added to your account so your new balance is $105.  The next time it compounds you get 5% on $105 so you get $5.25 added and so on.  If this is only happening semi-annually that would be all you get for the year.  But if it happens quarterly you would get would get deposits of $5.51 and $5.79 as well.  If it compounds monthly or even daily your money would grow more and more.  Hope this helps.

What is similar about a line segment and a line? What is different
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

A line segment has two endpoints. It contains these endpoints and all the points of the line between them. You can measure the length of a segment, but not of a line. Line segments are only a line that goes from one point to another, and lines go on forever. However, a line segment is also part of a line.

Hope this helps!

If the radius of a circle is 10 feet, how long is the arc subtended by an angle measuring 81°?
Kaylis [27]
<span>The length of an arc, L = theta/360 * 2 * pie * r Where theta = 81 and r = 10ft = 3.048m So length = 81/360 * 2 * pie * 3.048 L = * 0.225 * 2 * pie * 3.048 L = 1.37 * pie L = pie. Option A</span>

Please help me thank you
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

-2\frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is simple substitution, \frac{1}{2}(-\frac{1}{5})-\frac{2}{3}(3)=> -\frac{1}{10} - \frac{6}{3}=> -\frac{1}{10} - 2= -2\frac{1}{10}.
