Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

C) 48.786, 152°

Step-by-step explanation:

To add the vectors u, v and w, we first need to rewrite each vector in component form (where vectors are represented using the unit vectors i and j along the x and y axes).

The (x, y) components of a vector, given its magnitude (r) and direction (θ), are (r cos θ, r sin θ), where θ is measured in the anticlockwise direction from the positive x-axis.

Every vector in two dimensions is made up of horizontal and vertical components, so any vector can be expressed as a sum of i and j unit vectors. Therefore, the i + y form of a vector is:

(r cos θ) i + (r sin θ) j

So, the component form of the given vectors are:

$\mathbf{u}=80 \cos 230^(\circ)\textbf{i}+80 \sin 230^\circ}\textbf{j}$

$\mathbf{v}=60 \cos 120^(\circ)\textbf{i}+60 \sin 120^\circ}\textbf{j}$

$\mathbf{w}=50 \cos 40^(\circ)\textbf{i}+50 \sin 40^\circ}\textbf{j}$

Sum the vectors:

$\mathbf{R}=\mathbf{u}+\mathbf{v}+\mathbf{w}\n\n\mathbf{R}=(80 \cos 230^(\circ)+60 \cos 120^(\circ)+50 \cos 40^(\circ))\textbf{i}+(80 \sin 230^\circ}+60 \sin 120^\circ}+50 \sin 40^\circ})\:\textbf{j}\n\n\mathbf{R}=-43.1207866\:\textbf{i}+22.8173493\:\textbf{j}$

$\textsf{For a vector\;\;$\mathbf{a} = x\mathbf{i} + y\mathbf{j}$, its magnitude is\;\;$||\mathbf{a}|| = √(x^2+y^2)$.}$

Calculate the magnitude of the resultant vector ||R||:

$\mathbf{||R||}=√((-43.1207866)^2+(22.8173493)^2)\n\n\mathbf{||R||}=48.7855887...\n\n\mathbf{||R||}=48.786$

The direction θ can be found by finding the angle with the horizontal, which is given by:

$\boxed{\theta=\tan^(-1)\left((y)/(x)\right)}$

As the resultant vector is in quadrant II (since the i component is negative and the j component is positive), we need to add 180° to the value of tan⁻¹(y/x). Therefore:

$\theta=\tan^(-1)\left((22.8173493)/(-43.1207866)\right)+180^(\circ)$

$\theta=-27.8855396+180^(\circ)$

$\theta=152.114460^(\circ)$

$\theta=152^(\circ)\; \sf (nearest\;degree)$

Therefore:

Magnitude = 48.786
Direction = 152°

slips of paper numbered 1 to 50 are placed in a hat. of a person picks a slip of paper out of the hat, what is the probability they the number on the slip ends in 4?

Answers

the probability is 5/50

Since there are 5 numbers ending in 4: 4, 14, 24, 34, 44, the probability is 5/50. This ratio can be simplified to 1/10, assuming you are dividing by 5.

If $f(x)=2x^(2)-3x+1,$ then

$f(g(x))=2[g(x)]^(2)-3g(x)+1\n \n f(g(x))=2(x+5)^(2)-3(x+5)+1\n \n f(g(x))=2(x^(2)+10x+25)-3(x+5)+1\n \n f(g(x))=2x^(2)+20x+50-3x-15+1\n \n f(g(x))=2x^(2)+20x-3x+50-15+1\n \n \boxed{\begin{array}{c}f(g(x))=2x^(2)+17x+36 \end{array}}$

What value of x will make this proportion true? a. 7 b. 18 c. 24 d. 28 42 3 4 = 14 x 1 2

Answers

We are given proportion as 14/x = 1/2

So first step is to get rid off 2 from denominator,so we multipy both sides by 2

2(14/x) =2(1/2)

28/x =1

Next step is to get rid off x from denominator ,so we multiply both sides of the equation by x

x(28/x) =x(1)

28x/x =x

28 =x

Hence we get value of x =28

Hank estimated width of the door to his classroom in feet. what is a reasonable estimate?

Answers

The measurements of an average door are 80 inches by 36 inches. In this measurement, the length is 80 inches and the width is 36 inches. If Hank estimates the width of the door of his classroom, he will then most likely estimate it at 36 inches. To convert this into feet, you must know that 12 inches make 1 foot. So, 36 inches divided by 12 inches will convert the measurement to feet: 36/12 = 3. Thus, the answer is 3 feet.

Find y when x=15 if y=6 when x=30

Answers

y=kx
6=k (30)
6/30=k(30)/30
.2=k
y=.2(15)
y=3
So y is 3.

Y = 12 because you multiply x by two to get x2, which is 30, and multiply y by two to get 12 - this is wrong, the answer is three, i did the math backwards
