We're given the vectors

\vec a = 3\vec\imath + \vec\jmath - \vec k = \langle3,1,-1\rangle \\\\ \vec b = -3\,\vec\imath-\vec\jmath + \vec k = \langle-3,-1,1\rangle \\\\ \vec c = \vec\imath + \dfrac13\,\vec\jmath + \dfrac13\,\vec k = \left\langle1,\dfrac13,\dfrac13\right\rangle \\\\ \vec d = \vec\imath + 3\,\vec\jmath + 4\,\vec k = \langle 1,3,4\rangle \\\\ \vec g = \vec\imath + 3\,\vec\jmath - \vec k = \langle1,3,-1\rangle

(a) Two vectors are perpendicular if their dot product is zero. For instance, \vec a and \vec b are not perpendicular because

\vec a\cdot\vec b = \langle3,1,-1\rangle\cdot\langle-3,-1,1\rangle = 3\times(-3)+1\times(-1)+(-1)\times1 = -11

You'll find that none of these vectors taken two at a time are perpendicular to each other.

(b) Recall for any two vectors \vec x and \vec y that

\vec x\cdot\vec y = \|\vec x\| \|\vec y\| \cos(\theta)

where \theta is the angle between \vec x and \vec y. If these vectors are parallel, then the angle between them is 0 rad or π rad, meaning they point in the same or in opposite directions, respectively.

We have cos(0) = 1 and cos(π) = -1, so

\vec x\cdot\vec y = \pm\|\vec x\| \|\vec y\|

For instance, we know that

\vec a\cdot\vec b = -11

and we have

\|\vec a\| = \sqrt{3^2 + 1^2 + (-1)^2} = \sqrt{11} \\\\ \|\vec b\| = \sqrt{(-3)^2+(-1)^2+1^2} = \sqrt{11}

so \vec a and \vec b are indeed parallel and point in opposite directions, since -11 = - √11 × √11.

On the other hand, \vec a and \vec c are not parallel, since

\vec a\cdot\vec c = \langle3,1,-1\rangle\cdot\left\langle1,\dfrac13,\dfrac13\right\rangle = 3\times1+1\times\dfrac13+(-1)\times\dfrac13 = 3 \\\\ \|\vec a\|\|\vec c\| = \sqrt{3^2+1^2+(-1)^2}\times\sqrt{1^2+\dfrac1{3^2}+\dfrac1{3^2}} = \dfrac{11}3

and clearly 3 ≠ ±11/3.

It turns out that (a, b) is the only pair of parallel vectors.

(c) The cosine of an angle measuring between 0 and π/2 rad is positive, so you just need to check the sign of

\cos(\theta) = \dfrac{\vec x\cdot\vec y}{\|\vec x\|\|\vec y\|}

For instance, we know \vec a and \vec b are parallel and have an angle of π rad between them. cos(π) = -1, so this pair doesn't qualify. Meanwhile, the angle between

\cos(\theta)=\dfrac3{\frac{11}3}\right) =\dfrac9{11} > 0

so \vec a and \vec c do qualify.

You'd find that the pairs ((a, c), (a, d), (a, g), (c, d), (c, g), (d, g)).

(d) An angle between π/2 and π has a negative cosine. None of the vectors are perpendicular to each other, so this happens for the remaining pairs, ((a, b), (b, c), (b, d), (b, g)).

A baseball is hit into the​ air, and its height h in feet after t seconds is given by h(t)= -16t^2+128t+2. The height of the bas
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \ \text{2 feet, 4 seconds, 258 feet } \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

To know the height of the baseball when it is hit we have to compute h(0), as t = 0 is when the baseball is hit into the air.

h(0)=-16\cdot 0^2+128 \cdot 0+2=2

So, the answer is <u>2 feet.</u>

<u />

h(x) is a parabola which can be written as ax^2+bx+c, it means that the vertex is the point (-b/2a,h(-b/2a)).

The baseball reached its maximum height after

   \dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-128}{-2*16}=\boxed{4 \text{  seconds}}

And the maximum height of the baseball is h(4).

h(0)=-16\cdot 4^2+128 \cdot 4+2=-256+512+2=\boxed{258 \ \text{feet}}

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

An item costs $410 before tax, and the sales tax is $20.50 . find the sales tax rate. write your answer as a percentage.
Blababa [14]
Hi there! For this, we can simply divide 20.50 by 410 to find the tax rate. 20.50/410 is 0.05. That's in decimal form. Multiply by 100 to get the percent form. 0.05 * 100 is 5. That's the number in percent form. The sales tax rate is 5%.

4. Sasha sells t-shirts. Each day she earns a set amount, plus a
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The linear function is: p(x) = 3x+65The linear function is: p(x) = 3x+65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of t-shirts and y be the total pay

As we can clearly see in the table that there is a linear relationship between x and y

A linear function is given as:

y = mx+b

Here m is the gradient of the function then

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Taking any two pairs of x and y

(1,68) and (2,71)

m = \frac{71-68}{2-1}\\m = 3

Putting in equation

y = 3x+b

Putting a pair (1,68) in the equation to find the value of b

68 = 3(1) + b\\68 = 3+b\\b = 68-3\\b = 65

Putting the value of b

y = 3x+65

Let p(x) be the linear function

Hence,

The linear function is: p(x) = 3x+65
