Answer:

The length of the line segment: 5.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of a line segment, you must us the formula:

D= $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

1. well, you must first identify your coordinates

Point A is (-2, -4) which is ( $x_1$ , $y_1$ )

Point B is (1, 1) which is ( $x_2$ , $y_2$ )

2. Now you put these coordinates into your equation

D= $\sqrt{(1--2)^2+(1--4)^2}$

Ofc, you gotta keep in mind of any double negatives

D= $\sqrt{(1+2)^2+(1+4)^2}$

3. simplify

D= $\sqrt{(3)^2+(5)^2}$

D= $\sqrt{9+25}$

D= $\sqrt{34}$

The square root of 34 is 5.83095189.... in decimal form

4. Round it to the nearest tenth

5.83 and since 3 is lower than five, it does nothing

5.8= The length of your line segment!

Determine the projection of vector w onto vector u. u=9i-6j, v=-3i-2j, w=19i+15j

Naily [24]

Answer:

$proj_uw=6.2i-4.2j$

Step-by-step explanation:

The projection of a vector $v$ onto a vector $u$ is defined as the projection of the vector $v$ on the line that contains the vector $u$ . It can be calculated using the following formula:

$proj_uv=\frac{u\cdot v}{||u||^2} u$

Where:

$u\cdot v$

Is the dot product between $u$ and $v$ which is given by:

$u\cdot v= $$\sum_{i=1}^{n} u_iv_i= u_1v_1+u_2v_2+...+u_nv_n$$$

and:

$||u||$

Is the magnitude of vector which can be calculated as follows:

$||u||=\sqrt{u_1^2+u_2^2+...+u_n^2}$

In this sense, the projection of vector w onto vector u is:

$proj_uw=\frac{u\cdot w}{||u||^2} u$

Where the dot product between $u$ and $w$ is:

$u\cdot w =(9*19)+(-6*15)=171-90=81$

And the magnitude of $u$ is:

$||u||=\sqrt{9^2+(-6)^2} = 3 \sqrt{13}$

Thus:

$proj_uw=\frac{u\cdot w}{||u||^2} u=\frac{81}{117} \langle9,-6\rangle=\langle6.23,-4.15\rangle\approx6.2i-4.2j$
