Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
The projection of a vector u onto another vector v is given by;
=
----------------(i)
Where;
u.v is the dot product of vectors u and v
|v| is the magnitude of vector v
Given:
u = <-6, -7>
v = <1, 1>
These can be re-written in unit vector notation as;
u = -6i -7j
v = i + j
<em>Now;</em>
<em>Let's find the following</em>
(i) u . v
u . v = (-6i - 7j) . (i + j)
u . v = (-6i) (1i) + (-7j)(1j) [Remember that, i.i = j.j = 1]
u . v = -6 -7 = -13
(ii) |v|
|v| = 
|v| = 
<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>
= ![[\frac{-13}{(\sqrt{2}) ^2}][i + j]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B-13%7D%7B%28%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%29%20%5E2%7D%5D%5Bi%20%2B%20j%5D)
= ![\frac{-13}{2} [i + j]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-13%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Bi%20%2B%20j%5D)
This can be re-written as;

2=(x-2.7)/.5
(2)(.5) = x-2.7
1=x-2.7
x=3.7
-2.5=(x-2.7)/.5
(-2.5)(.5) = x-2.7
-1.25 =x-2.7
x=2.7-1.25 = 1.45
b)
95% of the students' score lie within 2 standard deviation of the mean. Therefore, the top 2.5% corresponds to a z value of 2.
The limits are (2, infinity) --- top 2.5 %</span>
The real number has to be 0
Answer:
(-24, -8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us recall that when we have a function f

<em>if the gradient of f at a given point (x,y) exists, then the gradient of f at this point (x,y) gives the direction of maximum rate of increasing and minus the gradient of f at this point gives the direction of maximum rate of decreasing</em>. That is

at the point (x,y) gives the direction of maximum rate of increasing

at the point (x,y) gives the direction of maximum rate of decreasing
In this case we have

and we want to find the direction of fastest speed of decreasing at the point (-3,-2)

at the point (-3,-2) minus the gradient equals

hence the vector (-24,-8) points in the direction with the greatest rate of decreasing, and they should start their descent in that direction.
