Answer:Speed of airplane= 43.18mi/he

Direction of the airplane relative to the ground=4.64°. Counter-clockwise rotation from west.

Step-by-step explanation: welovity/speed is represented as magnitudes of vectors.

Let A= the vector of the airplane

Let W= the vector of the wind

From the diagram,total vector F= A + w

F= 320+ 40cos45°I +0j) + (0i + 40sin46°)

F=320+28.28i+28.28j

To calculate the magnitude

/F/=root of A2 +w2

/F/=root320+40cos45°2+40sin45°2

/F/=root 1919.5168

/F/=43.18= speed

To calculate the direction of the airplane relative to the ground, use tan function because it is a right triangle as seen in the diagram

Tan x= opp/adj=40sin45/320+40cos45

Tanx=28.28/348.28

Tanx=0.091199

×=tan-1 0.091199

×=4.64

Help me find the function pls

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent function has been shifted upward by 2 units, but there has been no horizontal scaling. Any horizontal offset must be equal to some number of whole periods.

Choices A and B show tan( )+2, the correct vertical offset. However, choice A has a horizontal scale factor of 2. The correct choice is B, which has no horizontal scaling (the coefficient of x is 1) and a horizontal offset of π, one full period.

_____

<em>Comment on horizontal scaling</em>

Horizontal scaling is different from vertical scaling in that using k·x in place of x <em>compresses</em> the graph horizontally by a factor of k. On the other hand, using k·f(x) in place of f(x) <em>expands</em> the graph vertically by a factor of k.

find the coordinate of U' after a 90° counterclockwise rotation of the triangle about the origin and then a translation of 2 uni
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: U' = (0, 1)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

U = (3, -5)

rotate 90° counterclockwise means (x, y) = (-y, x)

new U = (5, 3)

down 2 units means subtract 2 from the y-coordinate

newer U = (5, 1)

left 5 units means subtract 5 from the x-coordinate

U' = (0, 1)

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the graph of f(x) and g(x)=f(x−7)?
anzhelika [568]

Step-by-step explanation:

When the number is inside the parenthesis. It means horizontal shift. Now negative is to the right and positive is to the left. Since it is negative 7 it would be 7 units to the right

any more help just ask :)
