The answer is C. 2 hours and 15 minutes. Please refer to the attached document to see the image for better understanding of solution.

Philadelphia = Point A
Pittsburgh = Point B
X = distance traveled by Michelle
(305-X) = distance traveled by Rich

The general formula used is:

distance = velocity(time)
s = v(t)

Assigning values gives 2 equations:

For Michelle: X = 65(t)
For Rich: (305-X) = 70(t)

Substituting both equations gives:

X = 146.852 miles
t = 2.26 hours or approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is c.


Proportional means a relationship of y = a constant multiplied by x


In this case, the constant is 7.


i.e. y = 7x


So if


x is 3, y is 21


x is 5, y is 35


x is 7, y is 49


and so on...


And there you have it.

Answer:

(3X8) - 4 + 2 - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Following the order of operations solve:

(24) - 4 + 2 - 12

20 + 2 - 12

22 - 12

10

Don't feel bad, this is an odd question and the parenthesis do not seem to be required. Following the order of operations would result in the same answer anyway...

Odd.

Determine the angles made by the vector v = (67)i + (-15)j with the positive x- and y-axes. write the unit vector n in the direc
vivado [14]
Consider the picture attached.

From right triangle trigonometry: 

tan(α)=(opposite side)/(adjacent side)=15/67=0.2239

using a scientific calculator we find that arctan(0.2239)=12.62°

thus α=12.62°, is the angle that the vector makes with the positive x-axis.

The angle made with the + y-axis is 12.62°+90°=102.62°.



The length of the vector v can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem:

|v|= \sqrt{ 67^{2} + 15^{2} }= \sqrt{4489+225}= \sqrt{4714}=68.8


Thus, to make v a unit vector, without changing its direction, we need to divide v by |v|=68.8. 

This means that the x and y components will also be divided by 68.8, by proportionality.

So, the unit vector in the direction of v is:

<span>(67/68.8)i + (-15/68.8)j=0.97 i + (- 0.22)j
</span>

Answer: 12.62°;  102.62°;  0.97 i + (- 0.22)j
