Answer:

a +(b -c) = -9i +10j

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the distributive property to remove the parentheses:

a +(b -c) = a + b - c

Add the vectors as though they were binomials.

a + b - c = (3 -2 -10)i +(4 +5 -(-1))j = -9i +10j

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hour + 1 hour = 2hrs

15 minutes + 50 minutes = 65 minutes

65 minutes to 1 hr = 1 hr 5 minutes

2 hours + 1 hr 5 minutes = 3 hours 5 minutes

06. Kristen can run at 15km/hr and walk at 5 km/hr. She completed a 42 km marathon in 4 hours. What distance did Kristen run dur

Mrac [35]

Let x be the time she ran and y be the time she walked

then distance ran = 25x and distance walked = 5y

so 15x + 5y = 42

and x + y = 4

* second equn. by -5:-

-5x - 5y = -20

add this to the first equn:0

10x = 22
x = 2.2

distance she ran = 2.2 * 15 = 33 km

John wants to measure the width of a stream using the methods he has learned in geometry. He puts a stake in the ground opposite

otez555 [7]

John's method to determine the width of the stream uses the knowledge

that the tangent of 60° is approximately 1.7.

The proper sequence John would use to find the width of the stream are;

Step 1; John drives a stake opposite the tree to establish a line between two points

Step 2; John uses a compass to walk away from the stakes at a right angle

Step 3; On the path John walks until he finds a line of sight to the tree that equals 60 degrees

Step 4; John drives a second stake in the ground

Step 5; John measures the the distance between the two stakes

Step 6; John multiplies the distance between the two stakes by 1.7 to find the distance.

Reasons:

The steps that can be used to measure the width of the stream are;

Step 1: Drive a stake opposite the tree on the other side of the stream.

Step 2: With the aid of a compass, walk at right angles to the line formed by the stake and the tree.

Step 3; Keep walking along the previous path till a point is reached where the angle formed between the line of site to the tree and the walk path is 60°.

Step 4; At the point where the line of sight to the tree is 60°, a second stake is driven in the ground.

Step 5; Measure the distance between the stakes that are placed in the ground.

Step 6; Given that by trigonometry, the ratio of the width of the stream to the distance between the two stakes is tan(60°) ≈ 1.7, multiply the distance between the two stakes by 1.7 to find the width of the stream.

$\displaystyle tan(60^{\circ}) = \mathbf{\frac{Width \ of \ stream}{Distance \ between \ stakes}}$

The possible question options are;

John measures the the distance between the two stakes

John uses a compass to walk away from the stakes at a right angle

John multiplies the distance between the two stakes by 1.7 to find the distance

John drives a second stake in the ground

On the path John walks until he finds a line of sight to the tree that equals 60 degrees

John drives a stake opposite the tree to establish a line between two points.
