The projection of vector A <em>parallel</em> to vector B is \langle -3, 0, 3\rangle and the projection of vector A <em>perpendicular</em> to vector B is \langle -2, -1, -2\rangle.

In this question, we need to determine all projections of a vector with respect to another vector. In this case, the projection of vector A <em>parallel</em> to vector B is defined by this formula:

\vec a_{\parallel , \vec b} = \frac{\vec a \,\bullet\,\vec b}{\|\vec b\|^{2}}\cdot \vec b (1)

Where \|\vec b\| is the norm of vector B.

And the projection of vector A <em>perpendicular</em> to vector B is:

\vec a_{\perp, \vec b} = \vec a - \vec a_{\parallel, \vec b} (2)

If we know that a = \langle -5, -1, 1 \rangle and \vec b = \langle -6, 0, 6 \rangle, then the projections are now calculated:

\vec a_{\parallel, \vec b} = \frac{(-5)\cdot (-6)+(-1)\cdot (0)+(1)\cdot (6)}{(-6)^{2}+0^{2}+6^{2}} \cdot \langle -6, 0, 6 \rangle

\vec a_{\parallel, \vec b} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \langle -6, 0, 6 \rangle

\vec a_{\parallel, \vec b} = \langle -3, 0, 3\rangle

\vec a_{\perp, \vec b} = \langle -5, -1, 1 \rangle - \langle -3, 0, 3 \rangle

\vec a_{\perp, \vec b} = \langle -2, -1, -2\rangle

The projection of vector A <em>parallel</em> to vector B is \langle -3, 0, 3\rangle and the projection of vector A <em>perpendicular</em> to vector B is \langle -2, -1, -2\rangle.

4x-5=2x+7 midpoint segmen
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to solve this is by subtracting 2x from both sides. Now we have

2x-5=7

Then we add 5 from both sides. Now we have

2x=12

We do this because we want X by itself

Then we divide by 2 on both sides and now we have

x = 6

Answer: y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute... 9p-36=18

then add 36 to the 18 to help isolate the variable..

9p=54

then to get the variable by itself divide 54 by 9 and get 6
