The nonzero vector orthogonal to the plane through the points P,Q and R is -7i + 7j -21k and the area of the triangle is 11.6 square units.

(a)Given points are P(-1,3,1) , Q(0,7,2) and R(4,2,-1)

PQ = Q - P

= (0 - (-1))i + (7 - 3)j + (2 -1)k

=i + 4j + k

PR = R - P

= (4 - (-1))i + (2 - 3)j + (-1 - 1)k

5i -j - 2k

The orthogonal vector is PQ x QR

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\1&4&1\\5&-1&-2\end{array}\right][/tex]

(-8 + 1)i - (-2 - 5)j + (-1 -  20))k

-7i + 7j - 21k

Therefore the nonzero vector orthogonal to the plane through the points P,Q and R is -7i + 7j - 21k

(b) The area of the triangle with the vertices P,Q and R is the half of the length of the cross product of PQ and QR.

Area = 1/2| PQ x QR|

= 1/2 √(7² + (-7)² + (-21)²)

= 1/2 √(49 + 49 + 441)

= 1/2 (23.21)

= 11.60

= 11.60 square units.

Therefore The non zero vector is  -7i + 7j - 21k and the area of the triangle is 11 .6 square units.

Answer:

The answer to the previous question is -14. This is the result of evaluating the expression 3(x^2-6)+4xy when x=2 and y=-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is 3(x^2-6)+4xy. Plugging in the values for x and y, we get 3(2^2-6)+4(2)(-2) = 3(-2)+(-8) = -6-8 = -14. Therefore, the result is -14 when x=2 and y=-2.

a. First ball 200 m/s and second ball 400 m/s both in same direction

b. First ball 200 m/s opposite direction and second ball 0 m/s at rest

Now for elastic collision there is a formula including mass and velocity of first and second body.

Now,

m1 = mass of first body

m2 = mass of second body

u1 = initial velocity of first body

u2 = initial velocity of second body

v1= final velocity of first body

v2 = final velocity of second body

Formula for final velocities of both bodies are

v1 = [(m1-m2)/m1+m2)]*u1 + [(2m2)/(m1+m2)]*u2

v2 = [(2m1)/(m1+m2)]*u1 + [(m2-m1)/m2+m1)]*u2

Now according to given data

u1 = 200 m/s

u2 = 0 m/s

For a)

consider m2 = 0 kg (in comparison, first ball is much massive, so the mass of second ball is negligible)

Now by putting values of m2, u1 and u2, we get

v1  = u1

v2 = 2u1

Since u1 = 200 m/s

v1 = 200 m/s

v2 = 400 m/s and both will move in same direction that is from where first body was coming towards second body.

For b)

Consider m1 = 0 Kg for same assumption

Now by putting values of m1, u1 and u2, we get

v1 = -u1

v2 = 0

So v1 = 200 m/s in opposite direction after collision with massive body

v2 = 0 m/s which means that massive body will not move after collision and will be at rest but smaller body will move in opposite direction after collision in double speed.

The correct options are:

b) If A and B are independent , then P(A|B)=P(A)

c) If A and B are disjoint, then they cannot be independent

d) If A and B are disjoint, then P(A cap B)=0

Explanation:

a) If A and B are disjoint, then P(A) and P(B) must not equal each other because the sets have no elements in common. This means that the probability of any given event happening in either set is 0, and so P(A) and P(B) cannot be the same.

b) If A and B are independent, then P(A|B) = P(A) because the event that occurs in A has no impact on the probability of the event occurring in B. This is because the two events do not affect each other, so the probability of one happening does not change with the occurrence of the other.

c) If A and B are disjoint, then they cannot be independent because the two sets have no elements in common. This means that the events in A can affect the probability of events in B and vice versa. For example, if an event in A occurs, then it is impossible for an event in B to occur at the same time. This means that the events are not independent.

d) If A and B are disjoint, then P(A cap B) = 0 because the two sets have no elements in common.

e) They must not be independent because, Disjoint events are events that have no elements in common, so they cannot be independent since they are not related in any way. This means that the probability of A given B is also zero, which means that A and B cannot be independent.

Answer:

Increasing on the interval:  (-2, 0) ∪ (2, ∞)

Decreasing on the interval:  (-∞, -2) ∪ (0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is increasing when f'(x) > 0

A function is decreasing when f'(x) < 0

Therefore, to find the intervals for which the function is increasing and decreasing, differentiate the given function.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5.4 cm}\underline{Chain Rule for Differentiation}\\\\If $y=f(u)$ and $u=g(x)$ then:\\\\$\dfrac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}x}=\dfrac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}u}\times\dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}$\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Given function:

[tex]f(x)=(x^2-4)^{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Let} \; u &= (x^2-4) \quad &\implies y&=u^{\frac{2}{3}}\\\\\implies \dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}&=2x \quad &\implies \dfrac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}u}&=\dfrac{2}{3}u^{-\frac{1}{3}}=\dfrac{2}{3} (x^2-4)^{-\frac{1}{3}}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}x}=\dfrac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}u}\times\dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}x}=\dfrac{2}{3} (x^2-4)^{-\frac{1}{3}} \times 2x[/tex]

[tex]\implies f'(x)=\dfrac{4}{3}x (x^2-4)^{-\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]\implies f'(x)=\dfrac{4x}{3 \sqrt[3]{x^2-4}}}[/tex]

Stationary points occur when f'(x) = 0:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{4x}{3 \sqrt[3]{x^2-4}}}=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies 4x=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=0[/tex]

Therefore, the function has is a stationary point (turning point) when x = 0.

The derivative is undefined when the denominator equals zero.

The denominator equals zero when x² = 4, so when x = ±2.

The derivative is positive when x > 2 and negative when x < -2.

Therefore, determine the nature of the derivative in the intervals between the stationary point x = 0 and x = ±2.

[tex]\implies f'(-1)=\dfrac{4(-1)}{3 \sqrt[3]{(-1)^2-4}}}=\dfrac{\rm negative}{\rm negative}= \rm positive > 0[/tex]

[tex]\implies f'(1)=\dfrac{4(1)}{3 \sqrt[3]{(1)^2-4}}}=\dfrac{\rm positive}{\rm negative}= \rm negative < 0[/tex]

Therefore, the function is:

The eigenvalue of T are 0,1,2,3,4 and the corresponding eigenvectors are of the form c, cx, cx2, cx3, cx4, where c ∈ R and c≠ 0.

A typical element p of P4(R) is given by expression p(x)= a0 +a1x+a2x2 +a3x3 +a4x4,

where a0,  .... , a4 ∈ R.

With that expression, the eigenvalue-eigenvector equation Tp = λp, which in

this case is xp′(x) = λp(x), becomes

a1x+2a2x2 +3a3x3 +4a4x4 = λ(a0 +a1x+a2x2 +a3x3 +a4x4)

Comparing coefficients in the equation above, we see that the eigenvalue-eigenvector equation is equivalent to the system of equations

0 = λa0 a1 = λa1 2a2 = λa2 3a3 = λa3

4a4 = λa4.

From the equations above, we can see that if j ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} and aj≠ 0, then we have λ = j and ak = 0 for any k≠ j. Thus the eigenvalue of T are 0,1,2,3,4 and the corresponding eigenvectors are of the form c, cx, cx2, cx3, cx4, where c ∈ R and c≠ 0.

Answer:

2.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jason's family drinks 2 1/2 gallons of milk in 4 days, then the amount of milk they drink per day is 2 1/2 / 4 = 5/8 gallons. Since 1 gallon is equal to 128 fluid ounces, 5/8 gallons is equal to 5/8 * 128 = 80 fluid ounces. Therefore, Jason's family drinks 80 fluid ounces of milk per day.

Note: To convert a mixed number to a decimal, we need to divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator and add the result to the whole number. In this case, the mixed number is 2 1/2, which is equal to 2 + 1/2 = 2 + 0.5 = 2.5. This means that Jason's family drinks 2.5 gallons of milk per day.

Describe statistics using an example.

A statistic is a numerical expression of a sample characteristic. The average amount of points obtained by students in one math class at the conclusion of the term, for instance, is an example of a statistic if we see that class as a sample of the population of all math classes.

Estimating the entire amount of coal generated in the US between 1997 and 2009 is the goal.

The information shows how much cola is produced year, in billions of tons.

The right-hand sum and the left-hand sum must be calculated in order to estimate the amount of coal produced.

with n = 7 and a hand sum

(2009 - 1997)/7 = Delta*t

The difference between every two years in the table is 2, which is another way to calculate Ar. So. t*delta = 2

The total on the left is.

The formula is: Delta*t[1.09 + 1.094 + 1.121 + 1.072 + 1.132 + 1.147] = 2[1.09 + 1.094 + 1.121 + 1.072 + 1.132 + 1.147] =13.312.

The amount on the right is.

Delta*I[1.094 plus 1.121 plus 1.072 plus 1.132 plus 1.147 plus 1.073] = 2[1.094 plus 1.121 plus 1.072 plus 1.132 + 1.147 + 1.073] = 13.278

Thus, using the left-hand addition, the total amount of coal produced in the United States between 1997 and 2009 is 13.312; using the right-hand sum, it is 13.278.

To show the production of coal from 1997 to 2009, create an integral.

Production of coal lasted for 14 years, from 1997 to 2009 (2009 – 1997 = 14). As r = f(t) (t).

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two proportions is (0.056, 0.164)

Here, we are given that from the sample information for people under 18-

n₁  =  500

x₁ =  180

⇒ p₁  =  180/ 500    

p₁  =  0.36    

then,  

q₁  =  1 -  p₁    

q₁ =  0.64

Similarly, from the sample information for people over 18, we have-

n₂  =  600

x₂  =  150

⇒ p₂  =  150 / 600  

p₂ =  0,25  

then,

q₂  =  1 - p₂  

q₂ =  1 - 0.25  

q₂ = 0,75

Now, we conduct a hypothesis test as follows-

Null hypothesis (H₀) ⇒  p₁  =  p₂

Alternative Hypothesis (Hₐ) ⇒ p₁  ≠  p₂

Confidence interval =  95 %    

⇒ significance level (α) = 5 %  

α  =  0.05  

and α/ 2  =  0.025  

⇒ z at 95% significance level = 1.96 (from z tables)

Now, we calculate z statistic-

z(s)  =  (p₁ - p₂) / EED

EED = √[(p₁*q₁)n₁  +  (p₂*q₂)/n₂]

EED = √[( 0.36*0.64)/500  +  (0.25*0.75)/600]

EED = √[0.00046  +  0.0003125]

EED = 0.028

and (p₁  -  p₂) = 0.36 - 0.25  

= 0.11

Therefore,

z(s)  =  0.11 / 0.028

z(s) = 3.93

we can see that  z(s) > 1.96

⇒ z(s) is in the rejection region for H₀

Thus, we reject H₀. We can´t support the idea of equals means

Now, CI at 95 %  = (p₁ - p₂) ±  z(c) * EED

CI = (0.11 ± 1.96 * 0.028)

CI = (0.11 ± 0.054)

CI =  (0.056, 0.164)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two proportions is (0.056, 0.164)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the numerical expression for (22+5) / (12-9)x6, we need to follow the order of operations. The first step is to perform any operations inside parentheses, so we start by calculating the expressions inside the parentheses on the left-hand side of the equation: (22+5) = 27. Then we move to the right-hand side of the equation and perform the operations inside the parentheses there: (12-9) = 3. Next, we perform any multiplications or divisions in the order that they appear from left to right, so we divide 27 by 3 to get 9. Finally, we perform any remaining multiplications or divisions in the order that they appear from left to right, so we multiply 9 by 6 to get the final result: 54. Therefore, the numerical expression for (22+5) / (12-9)x6 is 54.

The prediction hθ(x) = 0.7 means that the probability of the example having a value of y=1 is 0.7 (or 70%). This means that the probability of the example having a value of y=0 is 0.3 (or 30%). Therefore, our estimate for P(y=0|x;θ) is 0.3 and our estimate for P(y=1|x;θ) is 0.7.

The logistic regression classifier is a supervised learning algorithm used for binary classification. It is used to estimate the probability of an example belonging to one of two classes, typically 0 or 1. The output of the classifier, hθ(x), is a value between 0 and 1, which is interpreted as the probability of the example belonging to class 1. In the given case, the output of the classifier is hθ(x) = 0.7, which implies that the probability of the example belonging to class 1 is 0.7 (or 70%) and the probability of the example belonging to class 0 is 0.3 (or 30%).

A coin flip, for instance, has a 50% chance of coming up heads since there is only one method to acquire a head and there are a total of two possible outcomes (a head or tail). P(heads) = 1/2 is the formula.

P(a student finds a job by themselves) is 0.65

P(a student does not find a job by themselves) is  0.35

Identify P(at least one of five obtains a job) as 1 - P. (none of 5 find a job)

= 1 - (0.35)^5

= 1 - 0.005252

= 0.9947

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between the complex numbers -3 + 5i and 2 - 9i, we can use the distance formula for complex numbers, which is given by:

d = sqrt((a - b)^2 + (c - d)^2)

where a, b, c, and d are the real and imaginary parts of the two complex numbers. In this case, a = -3, b = 2, c = 5, and d = -9, so we can substitute these values into the distance formula to get:

d = sqrt((-3 - 2)^2 + (5 + 9)^2)

= sqrt((-5)^2 + (14)^2)

= sqrt(25 + 196)

= sqrt(221)

= 11

Therefore, the distance between -3 + 5i and 2 - 9i is 11.
