## Verbal

What are the characteristics of the letters that are commonly used to represent vectors?

lowercase, bold letter, usually $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}u,v,w$

How is a vector more specific than a line segment?

What are $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}i\text{\hspace{0.17em}}$ and $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}j,$ and what do they represent?

They are unit vectors. They are used to represent the horizontal and vertical components of a vector. They each have a magnitude of 1.

What is component form?

When a unit vector is expressed as $⟨a,b⟩,$ which letter is the coefficient of the $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}i\text{\hspace{0.17em}}$ and which the $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}j?$

The first number always represents the coefficient of the $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}i,\text{\hspace{0.17em}}$ and the second represents the $\text{\hspace{0.17em}}j.$

A rectangular garden is 25ft wide. if its area is 1125ft, what is the length of the garden
to find the length I divide the area by the wide wich means 1125ft/25ft=45

what is the formula for calculating algebraic
I think the formula for calculating algebraic is the statement of the equality of two expression stimulate by a set of addition, multiplication, soustraction, division, raising to a power and extraction of Root. U believe by having those in the equation you will be in measure to calculate it

hi
Miranda
the Cayley hamilton Theorem state if A is a square matrix and if f(x) is its characterics polynomial then f(x)=0 in another ways evey square matrix is a root of its chatacteristics polynomial.

Miranda Drice would you mind teaching me mathematics? I think you are really good at math. I'm not good at it. In fact I hate it. 😅😅😅

lolll who told you I'm good at it
Miranda
something seems to wispher me to my ear that u are good at it. lol
Jeffrey
lolllll if you say so
Miranda
but seriously, Im really bad at math. And I hate it. But you see, I downloaded this app two months ago hoping to master it.
