The tangent vector to r(<em>t</em>) at any <em>t</em> in the domain is

\mathbf T(t)=\dfrac{\mathrm d\mathbf r(t)}{\mathrm dt}=2\cos t\,\mathbf i-7\sin t\,\mathbf j

At <em>t</em> = π/6, the tanget vector is

\mathbf T\left(\dfrac\pi6\right)=\sqrt3\,\mathbf i-\dfrac72\,\mathbf j

To get the unit tangent, normalize this vector by dividing it by its magnitude:

\left\|\mathbf T\left(\dfrac\pi6\right)\right\|=\sqrt{(\sqrt3)^2+\left(-\dfrac72\right)^2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{61}}2

So the unit tangent at the given point is

\dfrac{\mathbf T\left(\frac\pi6\right)}{\left\|\mathbf T\left(\frac\pi6\right)\right\|}=2\sqrt{\dfrac3{61}}\,\mathbf i-\dfrac7{\sqrt{61}}\,\mathbf j

What is the slope of the line whose equation is 12=4x−6y?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
swat32
Slope= 2/3
Explanation- adding 6y on both sides and subtracting 12 on both sides of eq, 12 + 6y -12=4x+6y-6y-12
6y = 4x-12
Divide by 6 on both sides of eq, we get y=4/6 x -12/6
y=2/3 x-2

Find the 89th term of 25,35,45
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The 89th term would be 895.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a pattern of adding 10 each time. Notice that the 5 at the end doesn't change and that the first number continues (i.e. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). All you have to do is add an 89 in front of the 5 and that is your answer, 895.
