Answer:

x = <1,5>

y = <-5,1>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y be two vectors in 2D

defined as:

x = <a, b>

y = <c, d>

for x, y to be orthogonal, we know that their dot or scalar product must be zero so,

x . y = 0

<a, b> . <c, d> = 0

a*c + b*d = 0 ------ (A)

Now, consider any four values for a, b, c, and d respectively which satisfy the equation (A)

i.e. I chose (you can choose on your own choice):

a=1, b=5, c=-5, d=1

Verifying Equation (A):

(1)*(5) + (-5)*(1) =0

5 - 5 = 0

0 = 0 (True)

Therefore,

Our vectors x, y are:

x = <1, 5>

y = <-5, 1>

Answer:

As 2.551 < 3.84 therefore we reject H0.

As 44.803 > 4.46 so we accept null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is attached.

There are three judges so v1 = 3-1= 2 and v2 = (4*2)= 8

There are five gymnasts so v1 = 5-1= 4 and v2= (4*2)= 8

For alpha = 0.05 we find the value of F1 and F2 from the table.

Four students wrote sequences during math class. Andre mc011-1.jpg Brenda mc011-2.jpg Camille mc011-3.jpg Doug mc011-4.jpg Which

<span>A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

</span>The common ration is obtained by dividing the a term by the preceding term.

Given that f<span>our students wrote sequences during math class with
Andre writing $-\frac{3}{4} ,\frac{3}{8} ,-\frac{3}{16} ,-\frac{3}{32} , . . .$
Brenda writing </span> $\frac{3}{4} ,-\frac{3}{8} ,\frac{3}{16} ,\frac{3}{32} , . . .$
Camille writing $\frac{3}{4} ,\frac{3}{8} ,-\frac{3}{16} ,-\frac{3}{32} , . . .$
Doug writing $\frac{3}{4} ,-\frac{3}{8} ,\frac{3}{16} ,-\frac{3}{32} , . . .$

Notice that the common ratio for the four students is $- \frac{1}{2}$ .

For Andre, the last term is wrong and hence his sequence is not a geometric sequence.
For Brenda, the last term is wrong and hence her sequence is not a geometric sequence.
For Camille, her sequence is not a geometric sequence.
For Doug, his sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of $- \frac{1}{2}$ .

Therefore, Doug wrote a geometric sequence.
