Remember that science uses vectors to describe anything that has both a direction and a magnitude (size or quantity). These are drawn as pointed arrows, which length represents the magnitude. They are very used to locate persons or objects as the final direction can be predicted using a reference point, an stimated speed and direction. Vectors are also usefull to predict what would happen if two objects come into contact, an example would be predicting the movement of billiard balls, or calculating the trajectory of a golf ball.

Explain how to use a coordinate plane to find the area of a rectangle with vertices (–4, 9), (–4, –3), (–1, –3), and (–1, 9). wh
liberstina [14]

the formula for area of a rectangle is

Area = length x width

since both the length and the width of the rectangle lie on the same x and y axis, we can find the distance between the width and the distance between the length by subtracting

(-4,9) (-4,-3)

these points lie on the same x axis, so they create a vertical line

9-(-3) = 12

12 units is the distance between them

(-4,-3) (-1,-3)

these points lie on the same y axis, so they create a horizontal line

-1-(-4) = 3

3 units is the distance between them

now that we have the length and the width, we can find the area

A = 12 x 3

A = 36 units²

Express answer in exact form.
bazaltina [42]
The answer is 5.13 in²

Step 1. Calculate the diameter of the circle (d).
Step 2. Calculate the radius of the circle (r).
Step 3. Calculate the area of the circle (A1).
Step 4. Calculate the area of the square (A2).
Step 5. Calculate the difference between two areas (A1 - A2) and divide it by 4 (because there are total 4 segments) to get <span>the area of one segment formed by a square with sides of 6" inscribed in a circle.
</span>
Step 1:
The diameter (d) of the circle is actually the diagonal (D) of the square inscribed in the circle. The diagonal (D) of the square with side a is:
D = a√2            (ratio of 1:1:√2 means side a : side a : diagonal D = 1 : 1 : √2)
If a = 6 in, then D = 6√2 in.
d = D = 6√2 in

Step 2.
The radius (r) of the circle is half of its diameter (d):
r = d/2 = 6√2 / 2 = 3√2 in

Step 3.
The area of the circle (A1) is:
A = π * r²
A = 3.14 * (3√2)² = 3.14 * 3² * (√2)² = 3.14 * 9 * 2 = 56.52 in²

Step 4.
The area of the square (A2) is:
A2 = a²
A2 = 6² = 36 in²

Step 5:
(A1 - A2)/4 = (56.52 - 36)/4 = 20.52/4 =  5.13 in²

The total money spent for the Dinner and Dessert is $22 so to figure out how much was spent on the taxi ride you're going to want to subtract $22 from $31 (31 = x + 22) or (31 - 22 = x).

Write a recursive rule for the sequence. Assume it starts with the 1st term. 10, 14, 18, 21...
Papessa [141]

Option D is correct. The correct option for the recursive formula is f(0) =6;f(n)=f(n - 1)+4

Given the sequence 10, 14, 18...

The first term is 10, hence

a1 = 10

The previous terms will be a_{n-1}

From the sequence, we can see that <em>4 is being added to the previous term to get the next term</em>. Hence the nth term will be expressed as:

a_n = a_{n-1} + 4

Get the term before the first term a_0

If n = 1

a_1 = a_{1-1} + 4\\a_1 = a_{0} + 4\\a_0=a_1-4\\a_0=10-4\\a_0=6

Hence the correct option for the recursive formula is f(0) =6;f(n)=f(n - 1)+4

HELP PLEASE NEED THIS DONE ASAP
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

I did learn this before I'm not sure, but I think the answer is X x 10 = Y because on the chart for example X= 1 and Y= 10 so whatever number is on Y is basically X multiplied by 10. I hope this helps!
