If y varies directly as x and y = 21 when x = 5, find x when y = 42.

Lorico [155]

Answer: 10

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

varies directly means: $\frac{y}{x} = k$

Step 1: solve for k ⇒ $\frac{21}{5} = k$

Step 2: plug in the given value and k to solve for the missing value: $\frac{42}{x} = \frac{21}{5}$

42(5) = 21(x)

$\frac{42(5)}{21} = \frac{21(x)}{21}$

2(5) = x

10 = x

How do you find magnitude of a vector

Otrada [13]

Draw a vector triangle. When you draw the horizontal and vertical components, you end up with a right triangle. The magnitude of the vector is equal to the hypotenuse of the triangle so you can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate it. Rearrange the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the magnitude
