Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A boat leaves the harbor entrance and travels 28 miles in the direction N 43° E.

Displacement in vector form

= 28 cos43 i + 28sin43j

= 20.47 i + 19.1 j

The captain then turns the boat 90° and travels another 15 miles in the direction S 47° E

Displacement

= 15 cos47 i - 15 sin47 j

= 10.22 i - 10.97 j

Total displacement

= 20.47 i + 19.1 j + 10.22 i - 10.97 j

= 30.69 i - 8.13 j

Magnitude of displacement

= 31.75 miles

Angle with east direction

TanФ = - 8.13 / 30.69

Ф = 15 degree  south of east.

Which of the following represents the factored form of f(x) = x3 − 81x?
sladkih [1.3K]
You're original equation has a -81, so the factored form will have to have a positive and negative multiplying one another to achieve that...

f(x) = x(x + 9)(x - 9)

What's the solution for y+1/2=3/4
creativ13 [48]
\frac{y+1}{2} = \frac{3}{4}

2(y+1) = 3        LCD is 4

2*y + 2*1 = 3

2y + 2 = 3

2y = 3 - 2

2y = 1

y = 1 / 2

Can you draw trapezoid three right angles
Hunter-Best [27]
Its impossible to draw a trapezoid with just three right angles.

a trapezoid has 4 sides, which means all the angles inside the trapezoid must add up to 360 degrees.

if you have just 3 right angles (90x3), you already use up 270 degrees. Leaving you with just 90 degrees left, which is also a right angle. That means, there has to be four, if you have at least 3.

A jar containing only nickels and dimes contains a total of 60 coins. The value of all the coins in the jar is $4.45. Solve by e
borishaifa [10]

Answer: 31 nickels and 29 dimes

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

Nickels (.05): x

Dimes (.10): y


 Value:     .05x + .10y = 4.45 →  -20(.05x + .10y = 4.45)   →   -x - 2y = -89

Quantity:        x  +    y  = 60   →       1(x  +    y  = 60)           →   <u> x  + y </u> = <u> 60 </u>

                                                                                                       -y  = -29

                                                                                                        y  =  29

Next, substitute "29" for "y" into either equation and solve for "x":

x +  y  = 60

x + 29 = 60

x          = 31
