What is the component form of the vector whose tail is the point (-3,2) and whose head is the point (1, -6)?

Mathematics

Bess [88]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  (4, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The components of a vector are found by subtracting the tail from the head.

__

  Head - Tail = (1, -6) -(-3, 2) = (1 -(-3), -6 -2) = (4, -8)

⇒ The component form is (4, -8), or maybe 4<em>i</em> -8<em>j</em>.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

There are many ways that the components of vectors can be described. The particular format you are expected to use will likely be found in your curriculum materials.

Find the obtuse angle the line y-2x=7 makes with the x- axis
Kazeer [188]
In analytical geometry, there are already derived equations to find the distance of lines and points as well as the angle made between two lines. As special case is when the other line is one of the coordinate axis. Then, the formula can be simplified to

tan θ =m, where m is the slope of the equation

In the next step, we also incorporate operations of calculus. Since the slope is equal to Δy/Δx, this is equivalent to dy/dx in calculus. Therefore, you can find the slope by differentiating the equation in terms of x.

<span>y-2x=7
y = 2x+7
dy/dx = 2 =m

So,

tan </span>θ = 2
θ = tan⁻¹(2)
θ = 63.43°

Which graph shows the solution to the system of linear inequalities?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

x = 6 ; Rewritten: 2x-3y-12=0 ; y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3 multiply 0=12

x=6 ( that's the function)

Rewritten steps: 2x-3y=12 then move constant to the left by adding its opposite to both sides which gives you 2x-3y-12=12-12. After the sum of two opposites equals 0 which is 2x-3y-12=0

Y Intercept :

2x-3y=12 and to find y intercept, sub x = 0 ; to 2 multiply 0 -3y=12 and then you solve for the equation which is your answer.
