You are given a vector in the XY plane that has a magnitude of 87. 0 units and a y component of -66. 0 units. The direction of the vector V is;

<h3>How to know the direction of a vector?</h3>

We know that the formula for 2 vectors like this in the x and y directions is; A = xi^ + yj^

Where A is the magnitude of the resultant

x is the value of the x-component

y is the value of the y-component

We are given;

Magnitude of vector = 84 units

Y-component of the vector = -67 units

Thus,

A = \sqrt(x^2 + y^2)\\\\87 = \sqrt(x^2+ (-66)^2)\\\\87^2= x^2+ 4356\\\\7569 = x^2+ 4356\\\\x= \sqrt(7569 - 4356)\\\\x = 56.68 units

From A above, let us take the positive value of the x-component and as such our original vector will be;

A = 56.68i^ - 66j^

The direction of the vector V is;

\theta = tan^{-1} \dfrac{y}{x}  \\\\\theta =  tan^{-1} \dfrac{-66}{56.68}  \\\theta =-27.15°

Since it points entirely to the negative x-axis, then the angle is;

180 - (-27.15) = 207.15°

Which of the following lines is perpendicular to y = -5x - 2?
kykrilka [37]
Answer: c is perpendicular to y = -5x - 2

Explanation: The slope of a perpendicular line is an opposite reciprocal of the original slope/line. (Basically switch the numerator and denominator and the sign. In this case, the slope is -5/1x. It’s opposite reciprocal is 1/5x.)

You can take a look at my notes for further clarification. Hope this helps!

Gunnar’s car gets 22.4 miles per gallon, and his gas tank can hold 17.82 gallons of gas. PART B: Gunnar’s car is close to empty
dedylja [7]

Answer:

399.17 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Gunnar's car gets 22.4 miles per gallon. His gas tank can hold 17.82 gallons of gas.

Gunnar's car travels with one gallon of gas = 22.4 miles

He can travel with 17.82 gallon of gas = 17.82 × 22.4

                                                             = 399.168 ≈ 399.17 miles

Gunnar can travel 399.17 miles if he uses all of the gas in the gas tank.
