A boat is moving due east at 15 miles per hour when it encounters a current LaTeX: \textbf{C} = 2\textbf{i}+17\textbf{j}C = 2 i

+ 17 j. What is the path of the boat in this current if the boater keeps it pointed due east? What direction should the boater steer in order to go due east?

Answer:

a) \vec v_{B} - \vec v_{C} = 3\, i - 17\,j, b) \theta = 79.992^{\textdegree} (clockwise)

Step-by-step explanation:

The resultant velocity of the boat must be:

\vec v_{B} = 15\,i

Likewise, the velocity of the current is:

\vec v_{C} = 2\,i + 17\,j

a) The intended velocity of the boat is:

\vec v_{B} - \vec v_{C} = (15-2)\,i  + (0-17)\,j

\vec v_{B} - \vec v_{C} = 3\, i - 17\,j

b) The direction of the boat is:

\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{17}{3} \right) (clockwise)

\theta = 79.992^{\textdegree} (clockwise)

The coordinates of the vertex for the quadratic function are given as follows: (100,10).

<h3>What is the vertex of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The vertex is given by:

(x_v, y_v)

In which:

  • x_v = -\frac{b}{2a}
  • y_v = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}

In this problem, the function is given as follows:

y = -x²/1000 + x/5

y = -0.001x² + 0.2x.

Hence the coefficients are a = -0.001, b = 0.2, c = 0 and the coordinates of the vertex are given as follows:

  • x_v = -\frac{0.2}{2(-0.001)} = 100
  • y_v = -\frac{(0.2)^2}{4(-0.001)} = 10

Answer:

c) (6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find a slope is y=mx-b where m is the slope (to find the slope you find the change in y and the change in x) which in this case is -3. The change in y is -3 and the change in x is -1. If you put it on a graph the line is going down from left to right and it intersects the y-axis at 18 meaning if you keep sloping down in a straigt line it intersects the x-axis at (6,0).
