Hello!

a) 6 pounds

$9 is three times the cost we are given. Therefore, we multiply our original two pounds by three, giving us 6.

b) You would not be able to

There are 16 ounces in a pound. If each one weighs 5 ounces, it would be 5/16 of a pound. This would be 5/16 of $1.5, which is about 0.47. If we multiply this by 24 oranges, we get a cost 11.28, which is more than $9.

I hope this helps!

A / you can buy 6 pounds for 9 dollars.

B / No you cannot. If 1 orange is 5 ounces, 24 oranges all together is 7.5 pounds. Since its 2 pounds for 3 dollars, you could get 6 pounds out of the 7.5 and that would be 9 dollars. But you would have 1.5 pounds left.

How does multiplying a vector by a scalar value of 2x change the vector?
GalinKa [24]
Recall that the direction of a vector can be seen from its slope, namely b/a.

let's take a peek at a couple of vectors, and multiply them by a scalar of 2.

hmmm say < 3 , 7 > , it has a slope of 7/3, now if we use a scalar of 2

2<3,7> => < 6 , 14 >, now, the slope of that is 14/6 which simplifies to, yeap, you guessed it, to 7/3, no change in the slope.

and say hmmmm < 11 , -2 >, slope of -2/11, let's multiply it by 2

2<11,-2> => <22 , -4 >, slope is -4/22 which simplifies to -2/11.

so, the vector's magnitude gets blown up, but the slope remains the same.
