Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.5(3x + 5)   and   -1.5x + 2.5

-0.5(3x + 5)...distribute the -0.5 thru the parenthesis

-1.5x - 2.5

no, these are not equivalent.... one is -1.5x + 2.5 and the other is -1.5x - 2.5....not the same

Answer:

Both expressions are not equal

Step-by-step explanation:

First expression is

-0.5(3x + 5)

By multiplying

-1.5x - 2.5

2nd expression is

Three forces of 300 N in the direction of N30E, 400N in the direction of N60E and
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Split up each force into horizontal and vertical components.

• 300 N at N30°E :

(300 N) (cos(30°) i + sin(30°) j)

• 400 N at N60°E :

(400 N) (cos(60°) i + sin(60°) j)

• 500 N at N80°E :

(500 N) (cos(80°) i + sin(80°) j)

The resultant force is the sum of these forces,

∑ F = (300 cos(30°) + 400 cos(60°) + 500 cos(80°)) i

… … …  + (300 sin(30°) + 400 sin(60°) + 500 sin(80°)) j N

∑ F ≈ (546.632 i + 988.814 j) N

so ∑ F has a magnitude of approximately 1129.85 N and points in the direction of approximately N61.0655°E.
