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)

Each part of a race is 1/10 mile long. Marsha finished 5 part of the race.How far did marsha race?
andre [41]

We can multiply the number of parts Marsha has finished by the miles of each part:

5 × 1/10

= 5/10

=1/2

Therefore, she raced 1/2 miles.

Hope it helps!

To solve a system of inequalities so you can graph it how do you change these two equations into something like the two that are
Zigmanuir [339]
Explanation

Problem #2

We must find the solution to the following system of inequalities:

\begin{gathered} 3x-2y\leq4, \\ x+3y\leq6. \end{gathered}

(1) We solve for y the first inequality:

-2y\leq4-3x.

Now, we multiply both sides of the inequality by (-1), this changes the signs on both sides and inverts the inequality symbol:

\begin{gathered} 2y\ge-4+3x, \\ y\ge\frac{3}{2}x-2. \end{gathered}

The solution to this inequality is the set of all the points (x, y) over the line:

y=\frac{3}{2}x-2.

This line has:

• slope m = 3/2,

,

• y-intercept b = -2.

(2) We solve for y the second inequality:

\begin{gathered} x+3y\leq6, \\ 3y\leq6-x, \\ y\leq-\frac{1}{3}x+2. \end{gathered}

The solution to this inequality is the set of all the points (x, y) below the line:

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+2.

This line has:

• slope m = -1/3,

,

• y-intercept b = 2.

(3) Plotting the lines of points (1) and (2), and painting the region:

• over the line from point (1),

,

• and below the line from point (2),

we get the following graph:

Answer

The points that satisfy both inequalities are given by the intersection of the blue and red regions:
