Which of the following points could be the initial point of vector v if it has a magnitude of 10 an the terminal point (-1,5)?
Eddi Din [679]
Let the initial point of the vector be (x,y). Then the magnitude of the vector v can be written as:

|v|= \sqrt{ (-1-x)^{2} + (5-y)^{2} }

The magnitude of vecor v is given to be 10. So we can write:

10= \sqrt{ (-1-x)^{2} + (5-y)^{2} } \\ \\ 100=(-1-x)^{2} + (5-y)^{2}

Now from the given options, we have to check which one satisfies the above equation. That point will be the initial point of the vector. 

The point in option d, satisfies the equation.

100=(-1+7)^{2} +(5+3)^{2}  \\  \\ 
100=36+64 \\  \\ 
100=100

Thus, the answer to this question is option D

En una pizzeria se hicieron 8 docenas de pizzas. La tercera parte se vendio en el local y las cinco octavas partes son para envi
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

32 pizzas

60 pizzas

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Se hicieron 8 docenas de pizzas.

Una docena es 12, por lo tanto, el número de pizzas hechas fue:

8 * 12 = 96 pizzas

1/3 se vendieron en el local, esto significa que el número de pizzas vendidas en el local es:

1/3 * 96 = 32 pizzas

5/8 fueron para entrega a domicilio, por lo tanto, el número de pizzas vendidas en casa es:

5/8 * 96 = 60 pizzas

El número total de pizzas vendidas es:

32 + 60 = 92 pizzas

Esto significa que no se vendieron 4 pizzas. En forma de fracción:

4/96 = 1/24
