Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

By remote exterior angle theorem:

$(12x + 14)\degree = (1 + 5x) \degree+ 76 \degree \\ 12x + 14 = 1 + 5x + 76 \\ 12x - 5x = 77 - 14 \\ 7x = 63 \\x = \frac{63}{7} \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ x = 9}}$

It is known that 10 workers take 30 days to complete a project. They start working and the next day one quits. the next another,

Burka [1]

Answer:

<h3>5 workers finish this work in 60 days</h3>

Step by step explanation:

The problem tells us that at the end of the day, there are only 5 workers left, which we must find how many days it takes to finish said work.

We start by finding the type of proportionality we have.

<em>In this case, we have that the more workers there are, they will finish that work in less time, and the fewer workers there are, the longer it will take to finish the work. This is the inverse proportionality, to more less, to less more.</em>

We have only 5 workers left.

In the first case there are 10 workers, and in the second case there are 5 workers left. We find the relationship between the workers in the second case among the workers in the first case.

<h3>Ratio = 5 workers / 10 workers = 1/2</h3>

We see that the time is found by dividing the number of days in which the 10 workers finish the work, by 1/2.

As we know, dividing two fractions is the SAME as multiplying by the inverse fraction.

$\rm 30 * 2/1 \: = 60 \: days$

By so

<h3>5 workers finish this work in 60 days</h3>

In this question, i is a unit vector due east and j is a unit vector due north. A cyclist rides at a speed of 4 m/s on a bearing

d1i1m1o1n [39]

<u>Answer:</u>

a) 1.04i + 3.86j

b) magnitude = 8; bearing = 302.7°

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

The first diagram represents the velocity vector of the cyclist.

To express this vector in the form xi + yj, we have to find the components of the vector in the horizontal (i) and vertical (j) directions.

If we consider the horizontal component of the vector to be $x$ , and the vertical component to be $y$ , then:

• horizontal component ⇒ $sin (15^{\circ}) = \frac{x}{4}$

⇒ $x = 4\space\ sin(15^{\circ})$

⇒ $x \approx \bf 1.04$

• vertical component ⇒ $cos(15^{\circ}) = \frac{y}{4}$

⇒ $y = 4 \space\ cos(15^{\circ})$

⇒ $y \approx \bf 3.86$

Now that we have the values of both the horizontal and vertical component, we can write the vector in the form of xi + yj:

vector ⇒ 1.04i + 3.86j

The second diagram shows the first vector (red), the second vector (blue), and the resultant vector <em>v</em> (black). The dashed lines represent the components of the respective vectors.

To add two vectors given their magnitudes and direction, we have to add their components.

In order to find the horizontal and vertical components of the given vectors, we can use a method similar to that used above, so that:

○ For the first vector (magnitude 6):

• horizontal component ⇒ $x = 6 \space\ sin (60^{\circ})$

⇒ $\bf 5.2$

• vertical component ⇒ $y = 6 \space\ cos(60^{\circ})$

⇒ $y = \bf 3$

○ For the second vector (magnitude 2):

• horizontal component ⇒ $x = 2 \space\ cos (40^{\circ})$

⇒ $\bf 1.5$

• vertical component ⇒ $y = 2 \space\ sin(40^{\circ})$

⇒ $\bf 1.3$

Now we can add the respective components together:

v = 5.2i + 3j + 1.5i + 1.3j

⇒ (5.2 + 1.5)i + (3 + 1.3)j

⇒ 6.7i + 4.3j

∴ Magnitude of v ⇒ $|v| = \sqrt{(6.7)^2 + (4.3)^2}$

⇒ $|v| \approx \bf 8$

To find the bearing of <em>v</em>, we have to first calculate the angle marked $\alpha$ :

$tan \alpha = \frac{4.3}{6.7}$

⇒ $\alpha = tan^{-1}(\frac{4.3}{6.7})$

⇒ $\alpha = \bf 32.7^{\circ}$

∴ Bearing = 270° + 32.7°

= 302.7°

The cash operating expenses of the regional phone companies during the first half of 1994 were distributed about a mean of $29.9

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The percentage of regional phone companies whose operating expenses were closer to the mean than the operating expenses of Company A were to the mean is 73%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Company A's operating expenses were $27.00. This is $2.93 less than the regional mean.

$\Delta E=29.93-27.00=2.93$
