How to solve 2.5h - 15 = 4h

1 answer:

5 0

2.5h−15=4h

Subtract 4h from both sides.

2.5h−15−4h=4h−4h

−1.5h−15=0

Add 15 to both sides.

−1.5h−15+15=0+15

−1.5h=15

Divide both sides by -1.5.

−1.5h/−1.5 = 15/−1.5

h=−10

How many presedents do we have in the united states of america

Vikentia [17]

To answer your question very literally, the united states only elects one president per term! The president can only serve two terms and is then forced to leave office! But if you where asking how many presidents the U.S. has had, as of 2016 the U.S. has had exactly 43 presidents and 44 presidencies (one served a second term)

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:

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