The answer is 2 candies per person per month

(1) Find the amount of candy consumed <span>per person per year:
6 700 000 000 </span>÷ 305 000 000 = 21.97 candies per person per year

(2) Find the amount of candy consumed per person per month:
1 year has 12 months.
21.97 candy per person per year ÷ 12 = 1.83 ≈ 2 candies per person per month

Effectus [21]

Answer:

distance: 320.624 miles

direction: 43.576°

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed and direction can be found by adding the given vectors.

... 320∠40° + 20∠130°

... = (320·cos(40°), 320·sin(40°)) + (20·cos(130°), 20·sin(130°))

... = (245.134, 205.692) +(-12.856, 15.321) = (232.278, 221.013)

The magnitude of the vector with these components is found using the Pythagorean theorem. The direction is found using the arctangent function.

... = √(232.278² +221.013²)∠arctan(221.013/232.278)

... = 320.624∠43.576°

_____

A suitable vector or graphing calculator can do this easily. In the screenshot of a TI-84 app below, the variable D has the value π/180. The display mode is set to degrees.

<em>Comment on coordinate systems</em>

Navigation directions are generally measured clockwise from North. Angles in the usual x-y coordinate plane are measured counterclockwise from +x (effectively, East). You can consider the geometry of the navigation coordinate system to be a reflection across the line y=x of the geometry of the usual x-y coordinate system.

Reflection does not change lengths or angles within a given geometry. Hence, we can use all the usual tools of vector calculation using navigation coordinates, without bothering to translate them back and forth to x-y coordinates.

_____

Problems like this generally can be worked using the Law of Cosines and the Law of Sines, too. It generally helps to draw a diagram so you can find the values of the angles betwee the various vectors more easily.
