Answer:

Intensity of the vector is v= √37 ≈ 6.08 units and make angle ∡α ≈ 9.46° with east direction

Step-by-step explanation:

Required vector is consists of the two components

vx= 2+4=6 units  and vy= 1 unit and vx ⊥ vy

We will use Pythagorian theorem to find intensity of the vector v

v∧2 = vx∧2 + vy∧2 => v = √vx∧2 + vy∧2 = √6∧2 + 1∧2 = √36+1 = √37 ≈ 6.08 units

The angle ∡α between vector and east direction we wil find with tanα

tanα = 1/6 => α = arc tanα = arc 1/6 => α ≈ 9.46°

Good luck!!!

Which graph represents a function
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

the bottom left one (the graph that looks like a circle) is not a function, but the other ones are.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is defined so that for every x value within a function has a y value.  This means that an x value CANNOT have more than one y value.  The bottom right one has two y values for almost every x value within the domain.  The top ones are functions, because all x values have only 1 y value (a discontinuous function is still a function!)  And the bottom right is too.
