Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a vector v =3i+j

To find unit vector in the direction of v:

Since direction is the same as v we need not change the coefficients of i and j

But magnitude must be changed to 1.

Calculate the magnitude of vector v

|v|=\sqrt {3^2+1^2} =\sqrt{10}

TO make magnitude to 1 we divide the vector by magnitude

Hence unit vector

= \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}(3i+j)

\bf \textit{unit vector for \underline{v}}\qquad v=\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ \implies \stackrel{unit~vector}{\cfrac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}~,~\cfrac{b}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
v=3i+j\implies v=\ \textless \ 3,1\ \textgreater \ \implies \stackrel{unit~vector}{\cfrac{3}{\sqrt{3^2+1^2}}~,~\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{3^2+1^2}}}
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{3}{\sqrt{10}}~,~\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \right)

Xelga [282]
Mean is the average

So the first mean is 11
The second one is 14.7 so round to 15

15-11 is 4. Hope that is correct

Solve the equation 6x + 3y = 15 for y. What does y equal if x = 2? If x = 5?
horsena [70]
6(2)+3y=15
12+3y=15
-12        -12
3y=3
3y/3  3/3
y=1

6(5)+3y=15
30+3y=15
-30        -30
3y=-15
3y/3   -15/3
y= -5

X=-4 +6+ (11 +4(-3))
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -4 + 6 + (11 + 4(-3)).

First get the numbers in the parentheses

x = -4 + 6 + (11 - 12)

Since 11 - 12 = -1. We can replace (11-12) with -1

x = -4 + 6 -1

Now add and subtract

x = 1
