Find a • b.

a = 4i + 3j, b = -4i + 4j

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The required dotproduct of the given vector is given as -4.

Given that,
a = 4i + 3j, b = -4i + 4j
a • b is to be determined.

What is dot products of vector?

The dot × of twovectors is described as the sum of the products of the relevant directionalvector.

Here,
a.b = (4i + 3j).(-4i + 4j)
a.b = 4×-4 (i.i) + 3×4 (j.j) + 4×4 (i.j) + 3×-4(i.j)
a.b = -16 + 12
a.b = -4     (since i.j or j.i for dot product gives zero.)

Thus, the required dotproduct of the given vector is given as -4.

Answer: Hello,

I suppose a and b are vectors
and i and j unit's vectors

\vec{i}*\vec{i}=1\n \vec{j}*\vec{j}=1\n \vec{i}*\vec{j}=0\n
\vec{a}\ .\ \vec{b}=(4\vec{i}\ +3 \vec{j}).(-4\vec{i}\ +4 \vec{j})\n =-16-3*4*0+4*4*0+12=-4

Kitchen chairs are purchased wholesale for $36 by a discount furniture store. Then, the store marks up the chairs by 60 percent. The store has a special sale where all items are marked down by 20 percent. How much would two chairs cost during the sale?

Answers

As a result of the sale, two chairs can be purchased at the discounted price of $92.16.

After the store bought the chairs for $36, they gave it a markup of 60%. The new price is:

= Cost of chair + Markup

= 36 + (60% x 36)

= $57.60

They then reduced this price by 20%:

= Marked up price - Discount

= 57.60 - (20% x 57.60)

= $46.08

Two chairs are to be bought:

= 46.08 x 2

= $92.16

In conclusion, two chairs would cost $92.16

starts at 36....marks up by 60%
36 + 0.60(36) = 36 + 21.60 = 57.60
now they mark it down by 20%
57.60 - 0.20(57.60) = 57.60 - 11.52 = 46.08

46.08 * 2 = 92.16

Today is sunday. Tom starts to read a book with 490 pages today. Sundays he reads 25 pages and on all other days he reads 4 pages, with no exception. How many days does it take him to read the entire book

Answers

Based on the information given, it can be noted that Tom will use 117 days to read the book.

How to solve a equation.

Based on the information given, we are informed that Tom starts to read a book with 490 pages today. Sundays he reads 25 pages and on all other days he reads 4 pages.

Let the number of days be represented by x. Therefore, the equation to solve the question will be:

25 + (4 × x) = 490

25 + 4x = 490

4x = 490 - 25

4x = 465

x = 465/4

x = 116.25

x = 117

Therefore, he'll use 117 days to read the book.

The answer you are looking for is 1/3.

First, you must look at the denominators of each fraction, to see if you can simply divide straight across. In this case, you cannot, which means you must multiply by the reciprocal or "flipped" number. Generally when you multiply by the reciprocal, you flip the number with the smaller denominator to multiply.

So, you have 4/3 * 3/12. You then multiply straight across (4 * 3)/(3 * 12), to get an answer of 12/36, which simplified (divided by 3/3) gives you a final answer of 1/3.
