In one class, there are 2 of every 8 students in the class chewing gum. If there are 32 students in the class, how many students are
chewing gum?

8 people are chewing gum

Step-by-step explanation:

32/8=4, meaning there are 4 sets of 8 students.

If 2 students are chewing gum for every 8, and there are 32 students, that would mean that multiplying 4 by 2 to get 8 total kids chewing gum.

You could also say that 6*4=24, and 32-24=8 if you want to double check.

Hope this helps :)

step-by-step explanation:

the value of v.w= -12.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given three vector r,v and w as:

r = < 5, -5, -2> ; v = < 2, -8, -8> ; w = < -2, 6, -5>

we know that r,v and w could also be represented as:

r=5i-5j-2k

v=2i-8j-8k

and w= -2i+6j-5k

where i,j and k are the unit vectors of x,y and z-axis respectively.

also we know that it has the following property:

i.i=1 ; j.j=1; k.k=1

and i.=j.i=i.k=k.i=j.k=k.j=0

i.e. when we multiply two vectors or we find it's dot product we need to only multiply the components of x coordinates with each other; y with each other and z with each other.

hence, v.w= (2i-8j- -2i+6j-5k)

                  = 2×(-2)+(-8)×(6)+(-8)×(-5)

                  = -4-48+40

                  = -12

hence, v.w= -12
