Define unit vectors along the x-axis and the y-axis as \hat{i} , \, \hat{j} respectively.

Then the vector from P to Q is
\vec{PQ} = (-13+5)\hat{i} + (10-5)\hat{j} = -8\hat{i} + 5\hat{j}
In component form, the vector PQ is (-8,5).

The magnitude of vector PQ is
√[(-8)² + 5²] = √(89) = 9.434

Answer:
The vector PQ is (-8, 5) and its magnitude is √89  (or 9.434).

Answer:

<-16, 10>, square root of 178

Step-by-step explanation:

The other user was close, BUT he forgot to multiply his work by 2, and there were a few miscalculations.

The formula to find PQ respectively is <q1-p1,q2-p2> (Note: if they ask you to find QP then just flip the formula to <p1-q1,p2-q2>)

-13-(-5)=-8

10-5=5

Multiply them by 2 to get <-16,10>

To get the magnitude you use the same formula for the first part before, then you square both of them and add them together, then take the square root.

-13-(-5)=-8

-8^2=64

10-5=5

5^2=25

64+25=89

89*2=178

Take the square root: (square root of 178)

Then your done!

zysi [14]

Answer:

1.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Gabrielle uses 7.6 pints of blue and white paint to paint her bedroom

1/4 of the paint is blue paint

Therefore the amount of white paint she used to paint her bedroom can he calculated as follows

= 1/4

= 0.25×100

= 25%

25/100×7.6

= 2.5 × 7.6

= 1.9

Hence 1.9 pints of white paint was used to paint the room
