Let v=〈−2,5〉 in R^2,and let y=〈0,3,−2〉 in R^3.

Find a unit vector u in R^2 such that u is perpendicular to v. How many such vectors are there?

answer:

One(1) unit vector ( < 5/√29,  2 /√29 >  ) perpendicular to 〈−2,5〉

Step-by-step explanation:

let  

u = < x , y > ∈/R^2  be perpendicular to  v = < -2, 5 > ------ ( 1 )

hence :

-2x + 5y = 0

-2x = -5y

x = 5/2 y

back to equation 1

u = < 5/2y, y >

∴ || u || = y/2 √29

u   = < 5 /2 y * 2 / y√29 ,  y*2 / y√29 >

    = < 5/√29,  2 /√29 >  ( unit vector perpendicular to < -2, 5 > )

A bookstore had 160 copies of magazines. yesterday it sold 3/8 of them. how many copies were sold yesterday?

Answers

If the bookstore has 160 copies, and they are dividing them into eights, then you need to divide 160 by 8. This will give you 20. That means that there are 20 copies of the magazine in each eighth. But they sold 3/8 of the magazines, not 1/8. So 20 x 3 equals 60. 3/8 of 160 is 60. The store sold 60 magazines yesterday.
This problem can be solved by simply multiplying 160 by 3/8.
(3)/(8) x 160
(3)/(8)(160)/(1)
(480)/(8)
60
The bookstore sold 60 magazines yesterday.

What is the equation of the line, in general form, that passes through the point (1, 1) and has a y-intercept of 2.

Answers

Y = -2x + 8


The slope of the perpendicular line will be: y = -1/2x + 5


Dr. Hunt just got his PhD, and he wants to print copies of his thesis in hardcover book format. He could use Wildgrove Printing, paying a setup fee of $38 and $6 for every book printed. Alternately, he could go through Salem University, paying an up-front fee of $36 and $7 per book. It turns out that, given the number of books Dr. Hunt wants to print, the two options cost the same amount. How many books is that? What is the amount?

Which one of the following mathematical statements is true?A. 28 + 0 = 0
B. 0 ÷ 28 = 0
C. 28 – 0 = 0
D. 28 ÷ 0 = 0

Answers

B. 0 ÷ 28 = 0

Is the mathematical statement that is true.

Rule of ZERO. Zero(0) can be a numerator with non-zero denominator. Its overall value is equal to 0.

Rule of ZERO. A fraction with a denominator of ZERO is not a legal fraction. This is because the overall value of a number divided by zero is undefined.

28 + 0 = 28 not 0.
28 - 0 = 28 not 0.
28 ÷ 0 = ERROR! not 0. value is undefined
