10 Inches

A = p q / 2

p = diagonal 1
q = diagonal 2

2A / q = p

Solve for p
180/18 = 10

Find the slope of the line.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

A simple way of finding the slope is counting the spaces. the graph is going downwards to the right so it's clear the slope is negative, and if you count you'll see it takes going down 3, over 5 to get to the next point. therefore, the slope is -3/5

Each person is dealt 5 cards, show the total number of cards dealt for each players from 3 to 6 write the ratio of cards dealt

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Following are the responses to these question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because every player has 5 cards handed

The card ratio is 5:1 per player.

So, if there are three teams

5 times 3=15 Cards

Four players=four times five=20 cards

Five players=5 times five=25 cards

6 cards=6 times 5=30 cards

The card ratio is 5:1 per player.

Let L be the line with parametric equations x=5+t,y=6,z=−2−3t. Find the vector equation for a line that passes through the point

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The required equations are

$(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j + 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6- \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0$ and

$(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j + 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6+ \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parametric equation of the line, $L$ , is $x=5+t, y=6, z=-2-3t,$ so, an arbitrary point on the line is $R(x,y,z)=R(5+t, 6, -2-3t)$

The vector equation of the line passing through the points $P(-5,7,-8)$ and $R(5+t, 6, -2-3t)$ is

$\vec P + \lambda \vec{(PR)}=0$

$\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((5+t-(-5))\hat i + (6-7)\hat j +(-2-3t-8)\hat k\right)=0$

$\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+t)\hat i -\hat j +(6-3t)\hat k\right)=0\;\cdots (i)$

The given equation can also be written as

$\frac {x-5}{1}=\frac {v-6}{0}=\frac{z+2}{-3}=t \; \cdots (ii)$

The standard equation of the line passes through the point $P_0(x_0,y_0,z_0)$ and having direction $\vec v= a_1 \hat i +a_2 \hat j +a_3 \hat k$ is

$\frac {x-x_0}{a_1}=\frac {y-y_0}{a_2}=\frac{z-z_0}{a_3}=t \;\cdots (iii)$

Here, The value of the parameter, $t$ , of any point $R$ at a distance $d$ from the point, $P_0$ , can be determined by

$|t \vec v|=d\;\cdots (iv)$

Comparing equations $(ii)$ and $(iii)$

The line is passing through the point $P_0 (5,6,-2)$ having direction $\vec v=\hat i -3 \hat k$ .

Note that the point $Q(5,6,-2)$ is the same as $P_0$ obtained above.

Now, the value of the parameter, $t$ , for point $R$ at distance $d=3$ from the point $Q(5,6,-2)$ can be determined by equation $(iv)$ , we have

$|t(\hat i -3 \hat k)|=3$

$\Rightarrow t^2|(\hat i -3 \hat k)|^2=9$

$\Rightarrow 10t^2=9$

$\Rightarrow t^2=\frac {9}{10}$

$\Rightarrow t=\pm \frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}$

Put the value of $t$ in equation $(i)$ , the required equations are as follows:

For $t= \frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}$

$(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +\left(6-3\times \frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0$

$\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6- \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0$

and for $t= -\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}$ ,

$(-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10+\left (-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}\right))\hat i -\hat j +(6-3\times \left(-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}}\right)\hat k\right)=0$

$\Rightarrow (-5 \hat i + 7 \hat j - 8 \hat k )+\lambda \left((10-\frac {3}{\sqrt {10}})\hat i -\hat j +(6+ \frac {9}{\sqrt {10}})\hat k\right)=0$

Komok [63]

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) 14 + 18 ÷ 2 × 3 - 7

2.) 18 ÷ 2 = 9

3.) 14 + 9 × 3 - 7

4.) 9 × 3 = 27

5.) 14 + 27 - 7

6.) 14 + 27 = 41
