The magnitude and direction of line UV is 19.7° South of West for 8.1 miles

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the vector line UV?</h3>

The magnitude of the vector line UV is given by the length of the line UV,

d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²] where

  • (x₁, y₁) = (2, 3) and
  • (x₂, y₂) = (-2, -4)

Substituting the values of the variables intot he equation, we have

d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

d = √[(-2 - 2)² + (-4 - 3)²]

d = √[(-4)² + (-7)²]

d = √[4² + 7²]

d = √[16 + 49]

d = √65

d = 8.06 miles

d ≅ 8.1 miles

So, the magnitude of vector line UV is 8.1 miles

<h3>How to find the direction of the vector line UV</h3>

The direction of the vector line UV is given by Ф = tan⁻¹[(y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)] where

  • (x₁, y₁) = (2, 3) and
  • (x₂, y₂) = (-2, -4)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

Ф = tan⁻¹[(y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)]

Ф = tan⁻¹[(-4 - 3)/(-2 - 2)]

Ф = tan⁻¹[(-7)/(-4)]

Ф = tan⁻¹[7/4]

Ф = tan⁻¹[1.75]

Ф = 60.26°

Ф ≅ 60.3°

Its bearing from the north-south line is α = 90° - Ф

= 90° - 60.3°

= 19.7°

So, its direction is 19.7° South of West

So, the magnitude and direction of line UV is 19.7° South of West for 8.1 miles

A circle has a diameter of 12 units, and its center lies on the x-axis. What could be the equation of the circle?
ycow [4]

Answer:

x^{2} +y^{2} =36

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle centered at (0,0) with radius r is x^{2} +y^{2} =r^{2}

Since your circle has diameter of 12, then its radius is 6.  Then r^{2} =36

So a possible answer is:  x^{2} +y^{2} =36

If you want to move the location of the center, but keep it on the x-axis, then add or subtract a number to the x, such as this:

(x+4)^{2} +y^{2} =36

The center of this circle would be (-4, 0) which is still on the x-axis.

Find (f/g) (x) and state the domain restriction. f (x) = 6x - 3 and g(x) = 12x^2 - 6x
Rufina [12.5K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (f/g)(x) = 1/(2x)

  x ≠ 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

  (f/g)(x)=\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{6x-3}{12x^2-6x}=\dfrac{6x-3}{2x(6x-3)}\\\\\boxed{(f/g)(x)=\dfrac{1}{2x}}\quad x\ne\dfrac{1}{2}

The domain restriction x ≠ 1/2 comes from the requirement to prevent the denominator factor 6x-3 from being zero.

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answers on the provided grid. Consider the function g. For the x-value given in the
NeX [460]

Answer:

(-2,-12), (-1,-6), (0,-3) and (1,-3/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = -3(1/2)^x

Putting values of x

x     g(x)

-2    -3(1/2)^-2 = -12

-1     -3(1/2)^-1 = -6

0     -3(1/2)^0 = -3

1      -3(1/2)^1 = -3/2

Now, making the graph we will plot

(-2,-12), (-1,-6), (0,-3) and (1,-3/2)

The graph is shown in figure below.
