Suppose you are driving due east, traveling a distance of 1500 m in 2 minutes. You then turn due north and travel the same dista

nce in the same time. What can be said about the average speeds and the average velocities for the two segments of the trip?
(a) The average speeds are the same, and the average velocities are the same.
(b) The average speeds are the same, but the average velocities are different.
(c) The average speeds are different, but the average velocities are the same.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

There are essentially two kind of quantities, the scalar quantities and the vector quantities. While vector quantities are detailed and described according to their magnitude and directions, the scalar quantities are described in terms of their magnitude alone.

Hence we say that a scalar quantity possesses magnitude only but not direction. To adequately account for the average speed and the average velocities, we need to know the quantities that gave rise to them. While the average speed is measured by the total distance divided by the total time, the average velocity is measured by the division of the total displacement over the total time.

While average speed is a scalar quantity, average velocity is a vector quantity. Hence the speed is the same irrespective of the direction while the average velocity is different as we had a change in direction according to the question

A class at Middlebury school collected date on the types of movies students prefer. Complete each statement using the table.
likoan [24]

Based on the information of the table, you have:

1. The ratio is 105/150. By simplifying you get for the ratio 7/10.

2. The students that prefer action movies are 75+90 = 165 and the total numbe of students is 180+240 = 420. Then, the fraction of students who prefer action movies is:

165/420 = 11/28

3. The fraction of seventh graders students that prefer action movies is:

75/180 = 5/12

4. The percent of student that prefer comedy is:

105 + 150 = 255 total student that prefer comedy

420 total number of students

the fraction is:

(x/100)420 = 255

solve for x:

x = 255(100/420)

x = 60.71

the percent of students is 60.71%

5. The percent of eighth graders student who prefer action moveis is:

(x/100)240 = 90

x = 90(100/240)

x = 37.5

the percent of students is 37.5%

6. To determine which from the given grades has the greatest percent of student that prefer action movies, calculate the percent of student in seventh-grade:

(x/100)180 = 75

x = 75(100/180)

x = 41.66

the percent of student is 41.66%

then, seventh grade has the greatest percent of student that prefer action movies.

Vertex of -2 (x - 3)^2 - 2
marin [14]

Answer:

The vertex is (-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation for a parabola in the form

y = a(x-h)^2 +k  where (h,k) is the vertex

y =-2 (x - 3)^2 - 2

h = -3 and k =-2

The vertex is (-3,-2)
