How do I find the displacement? Help frl

Mathematics
1 answer:
liubo4ka [24]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • distance traveled: 30 m
  • displacement: 21.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the distance traveled and the displacement after walking 17 m south and 13 m east.

<h3>Distance</h3>

The distance traveled is the sum of the lengths of each leg of the trip:

  17 m + 13 m = 30 m

You have traveled a distance of 30 m.

<h3>Displacement</h3>

The displacement is the distance from your final position to your starting position. If you draw a diagram of the journey, you see the displacement is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 17 m and 13 m. The Pythagorean theorem can help you find this length:

  h = √(a² +b²)

  h = √(17² +13²) = √(289 +169) = √458 ≈ 21.401

At the end of your walking, you are 21.4 m from where you started.

Emily deposited $5,000 into a savings account 6 years ago. The simple interest rate is 3%. How much money did Emily earn in inte
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 5000 × 0.03 × 6 = 900

I = $ 900.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 5,000.00

at a rate of 3% per year

for 6 years is $ 900.00.

To get from her home to a friend's house, Georgia must go past a school, then a post office.
Nataliya [291]
The time it takes for a certain object or person, in this case Georgia, to travel from one place to another is the quotient of the distance and speed. Such that the given above can be best represented by the equation below,     
                42 minutes = (7/8 + 5/6 + x) / 1/18
The value of x from the equation is approximately 0.625 miles.

A rectangular box is 32 cm wide and 36 cm high. If the surface area of the box is 4344 square​ centimeters, find the length of t
AnnZ [28]

To find the surface area, multiply length x width x height.

let "length" = l

l x 32 x 36 = 4344

Simplify

l x (32 x 36) = 4344

l x 1152 = 4344

Isolate the length. Divide 1152 from both sides

(l x 1152)/1152 = (4344)/1152

l = 4344/1152

l = 3.77 (rounded)

3.77 cm is your length.

hope this helps
