The magnitude of the vector is
$\sqrt{2 {}^{2} + 5 {}^{2} } = \sqrt{29}$
the component form is
<2,5>

To find the component form, <x2-x1, y2-y1>
We have P(2,9) meaning, x1=2, y1=9
And, Q(4,14) meaning, x2=4, y2=14
Now PQ = <4-2, 14-9> = <2, 5>

Now to find the magnitude, we use the distance formula aka the Pythagorean Theorem. a^2 + b^2 = c^2 and we have, x=2, y=5
So, 2^2 + 5^2 = c^2 =29
Therefore, the magnitude is c = sqrt of 29.

Answer:

(e) csc x − cot x − ln(1 + cos x) + C

Step-by-step explanation:

(e) ∫ (1 + sin x) / (1 + cos x) dx

Split the integral.

∫ 1 / (1 + cos x) dx + ∫ sin x / (1 + cos x) dx

Multiply top and bottom of first integral by the conjugate, 1 − cos x.

∫ (1 − cos x) / (1 − cos²x) dx + ∫ sin x / (1 + cos x) dx

Pythagorean identity.

∫ (1 − cos x) / (sin²x) dx + ∫ sin x / (1 + cos x) dx

Divide.

∫ (csc²x − cot x csc x) dx + ∫ sin x / (1 + cos x) dx

Integrate.

csc x − cot x − ln(1 + cos x) + C

= ∫₋₇⁰ erf(x) dx + ∫₀⁷ erf(x) dx

The error function is odd (erf(-x) = -erf(x)), so:

= -∫₀⁷ erf(x) dx + ∫₀⁷ erf(x) dx

= 0

The answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2 $\frac{2}{3}$ will be $\frac{8}{3}$

2. Now the equation is,

$\frac{3}{2}$ a - $\frac{4}{3}$ a = $\frac{10}{3}$ + $\frac{8}{3}$ a

3. Take LCM on both sides.

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by $\frac{3}{3}$ and multiply the second fraction by $\frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{3*3}{2*3}$ a - $\frac{4*3}{3*3}$ a = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

4. Solve by making a the subject

$\frac{9a-8a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{3a}{6}$ =10+8a

$\frac{a}{2}$ = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = $\frac{20}{-15}$

a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Therefore, the answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

adell [148]

Answer:

$2.10x + 5= $49.10

x=21

Step-by-step explanation:

the x is used for a variable that changes and in this case the mph changes which lead x being the amount of miles that they had drove which at the end ends up multi. with the $2.10 . as for the 5 it was an initial as in it doesn't change.

for the second part

you subtract 5 from each side so you have the total of 2.10x= 44.10 then u divide 2.10 from each side and that will give you x = 21

uranmaximum [27]

Answer: d) v = 3.20 + 1.50n.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'v' be the price to pay in a 'n' kilometer.

Given: The price to be paid for a taxi ride includes a fixed parcel, called a flag, and a parcel that depends on the distance traveled.

Flag costs = $ 3.20 and

Each kilometre run costs = $ 1.50

Then, the amount of 'v' to pay in a 'n' kilometer race = Flag costs + (n)× (Each kilometre run costs )

⇒ v= 3.20 + 1.50n

Hence, the correct option is d) v = 3.20 + 1.50n.
