Debbie has 12 blooms on her lemon tree on the first day she thinks to check it. Each day after that, she notices 3 additional blooms. How many blooms does she have after one week?

33 blooms

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be set up by an equation. x represents the number of days and y represents the number of corresponding blooms. y = 3x + 12 is the equation, as 3 is the rate of change and 12 is the initial amount. One week is 7 days, so 7 can be plugged in for x. 21 + 12 = 33, so after one week, Debbie has 33 blooms.

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
