Answer: 24.2° SouthWest

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

First step: DRAW A PICTURE of the vectors from head to tail <em>(see image)</em>

I created a perpendicular from the resultant vector to the vertex of the given vectors so I could use Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the perpendicular. Then I used that value to find the angle of the plane.

<u>Perpendicular (x):</u>

 cos 35° = adjacent/hypotenuse

  cos 35° = x/160

→ x = 160 cos 35°

<u>Angle (θ):</u>

sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse

sin θ = x/320

sin θ = 160 cos 35°/320

    θ = arcsin (160 cos 35°/320)

    θ = 24.2°

Direction is down (south) and left (west)

Find the largest prime divisor of 76^2 − 1.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a difference of squares and therefore can be written as (76-1)(76+1)=(75)(77).

So lets look at the factors....

75=3(25)=3(5)(5)

77=7(11)

The biggest prime factor is therefore 11.

Identities used:

Difference of squares a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)

Brian usually brushes his teeth in the morning, but 10% of the time he forgets. What is the probability that he will forget to b
Katena32 [7]

Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.001 = 0.1% probability that he will forget to brush his teeth three days in a row.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

In this problem, for each day, there is a 0.1 probability that he forgers to brush his teeth, and days are independent, hence for 3 consecutive days the probability is given by:

p = (0.1)³ = 0.001.
