Which components are a possible representation of vector w if the magnitude of vector -3w is ||-3w||=15?

Answer:

<-3,4>

<0,-5>

Step-by-step explanation:

|-3w| = 15

3|-w| = 3|w| = 15

|w| = \frac{15}{3}

|w| = 5

  • If vector w is represented by <1,-9>

Then |w| = \sqrt{(1)^{2}+(-9)^{2}}=\sqrt{1+81}=\sqrt{82}\neq5 .

Therefore this is not possible.

  • If vector w is represented by <-3,4>

Then |w| = \sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}=\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25}=5 .

Therefore this is possible.

  • If vector w is represented by <4,5>

Then |w| = \sqrt{(4)^{2}+(5)^{2}}=\sqrt{16+25}=\sqrt{41}\neq5 .

Therefore this is not possible.

  • If vector w is represented by <-5,-3>

Then |w| = \sqrt{(-5)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}=\sqrt{25+9}=\sqrt{34}\neq5 .

Therefore this is not possible.

  • If vector w is represented by <0,-5>

Then |w| = \sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}=\sqrt{0+25}=\sqrt{25}=5 .

Therefore this is possible.

(NOTE : if z vector is represented by <x,y> then |z| = \mathbf{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}} )

Mark is investing $8,000 in an account paying 5.5% interest compounded monthly.
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The formula is F = P(1 + interest percent)^n

Here,

p =8000 dollar

interest percent =5.5%  = (5.5/12)/100 =0.004583 (compounded monthly)

n =7 x 12 =84 (compounded monthly)

=>  Mark's account balance after 7 years

F = 8000*(1+0.004583)^84 =11746.2503 dollar

Help me please it's for geometry
LuckyWell [14K]
Since they are similar, and a side of 10 = a side of 4, the ratio would be 2.5 : 1. You would do 6 * 2.5, which would equal 15, and (15 + 2) / 2 = 8.5 or 17/2

7 Units.

8(1)+9= 17
8(2)+9=25
8(3)+9=33

33-25=7. 25-17=7
