Let's review the terminology. A product is what you get when you multiply two numbers. So, the product of 5 and 2 is basically "5*2," and the product of 5 and 1 is "5*1."
The difference means when you subtract one from the other. So, the difference of 5*2 and 5*1 means "(5*2)-(5*1)". (Note: I put in parentheses to make sure the reader understands that 5*2 is separate from 5*1. 5*2-5*1 is confusing: you might not know what to do first!)
So, "(5*2)-(5*1)" can be your answer, OR you can simplify it further by actually doing the multiplication: "10-5". If you want the answer, just subtract--the expression is equal to 5.
Answer: "<span>(5*2)-(5*1)" OR "10-5" OR "5"</span>
Answer:
A)11
Step-by-step explanation:
These are matrices one dimensional with one column and 3 rows each.
-The product of the matrices is obtained by multiplying the correspond values and summing up;
![pq=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3\\2\\-1\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5\\-1\\2\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\\=(3\times 5)+(2\times -1)+(-1\times 2)\\\\=15+-2+-2\\\\=11](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pq%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D3%5C%5C2%5C%5C-1%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Ctimes%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D5%5C%5C-1%5C%5C2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%283%5Ctimes%205%29%2B%282%5Ctimes%20-1%29%2B%28-1%5Ctimes%202%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D15%2B-2%2B-2%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D11)
Hence, the product of p and q is 11
To solve this problem, we can use the tan function to find
for the distances covered.
tan θ = o / a
Where,
θ = angle = 90° - angle of depression
o = side opposite to the angle = distance of boat from
lighthouse
a = side adjacent to the angle = height of lighthouse = 200
ft
When the angle of depression is 16°18', the initial distance
from the lighthouse is:
o = 200 tan (90° - 16°18')
o = 683.95 ft
When the angle of depression is 48°51', the final distance
from the lighthouse is:
o = 200 tan (90° - 48°51')
o = 174.78 ft
Therefore the total distance the boat travelled is:
d = 683.95 ft - 174.78 ft
<span>d = 509.17
