Answer:

x + y=24  

x=24-y = 3x+5y=100  

3(24-y)+5y=100

72-3y+5y=100

72+2y=100

2y=28

y=14, since x=24-y

x=10

So there are 10 3-point questions and 14 5-point questions.

Answer:

m∠R is 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure

∵ ΔPQR ≅ ΔUVW

→ From congruency

∵ m∠P = m∠U

∵ m∠Q = m∠V

∴ m∠R = m∠W

∵ m∠R = (10x - 18)°

∵ m∠W = 8x°

∵ m∠R = m∠W

→ Equate their measures

∴ 10x - 18 = 8x

→ Add 18 to both sides

∵ 10x - 18 + 18 = 8x + 18

∴ 10x = 8x + 18

→ Subtract 8x from both sides

∴ 10x - 8x = 8x - 8x + 18

∴ 2x = 18

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x

∴ x = 9

→ Substitute the value of x in the m∠R

∵ m∠R = 10(9) - 18

∴ m∠R = 90 - 18

∴ m∠R = 72°

∴ m∠R is 72°

If Vector u=(5,-7) and v=(-11,3), 2v-6u=_____ and ||2v-6u||≈_____
Sauron [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}=(-52,48) \\ \\ ||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}||=75.28}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In this problem we have two vectors:

\vec{u}=(5,-7) \ and \ \vec{v}=(-11,3)

So we need to find two things:

2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}

and:

||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}||

FIRST:

In this case we have the multiplication of vectors by scalars. A scalar is a simple number, so:

2\vec{v}-6\vec{u} \\ \\ Replace \ \vec{v} \ and \ \vec{u} \ by \ the \ given \ vectors: \\ \\ 2(-11,3)-6(5,-7) \\ \\ Multiply \ each \ component \ by \ the \ corresponding \ scalar:\\ \\ (2\times (-11),2\times 3)+(-6\times 5,-6\times (-7)) \\ \\ (-22,6)+(-30,42) \\ \\ Sum \ of \ vectors: \\ \\ (-22-30,6+42) \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{(-52,48)}

SECOND:

If we name:

\vec{w}=2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}

Then, ||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}|| is the magnitude of the vector \vec{w}. Therefore:

||\vec{w}||=||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}|| \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=||(-52,48)|| \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=\sqrt{(-58)^2+48^2} \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=\sqrt{3364+2304} \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=\sqrt{5668} \\ \\ \boxed{||\vec{w}||=75.28}
