Answer:

The terminal point of 2u - v is (9 , 21) ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The position vector is the vector whose starting point is the origin (0 , 0)

You can find it from its terminal point on it (a, b), the vector is <a - 0 , b - 0> = <a , b>

∵ u is a position vector with terminal point (6 , 14)

∴ u = <6 - 0 , 14 - 0>

∴ u = <6 , 14>

∵ v is a position vector with terminal point (3 , 7)

∴ v = <3 - 0 , 7 - 0>

∴ v = <3 , 7>

∵ 2u - v = 2<6 , 14> - <3 , 7>

- Multiply 6 and 14 by 2

∴ 2u - v = <12 , 28> - <3 , 7>

- Add subtract 3 from 12 and 7 from 28

∴ 2u - v = <9 , 21>

∴ The terminal point of 2u - v = (9 , 21)

Find the surface area of a sphere with a great circle that has an area of 49 π square miles.

Mademuasel [1]

The answer is <span>B. 196 π mi2
</span>
(1) Find radius r:
The area of the circle is:
A = r²π
A = 49π mi²

49π = r²π
49 = r²
r = √49 = 7 mi

(2) Find the surface area of the sphere.
The surface area of the sphere is:
A = 4πr²
r = 7 mi
A = 4π * 7²
A = 4π * 49
A = 196π mi²

A boat takes 4 hours to go 20 miles upstream.It can go 32 miles downstream in same time.Find the rate of the current and the rat

Mandarinka [93]

Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time.

now, if the boat has a speed of say "b", and the current has a speed of say "c", when the boat is going upstream, is not really going "b" fast, is going " b - c " fast, because the current is eroding speed from it, going upwards.

And when the boat is going downstream, is not going "b" fast either, because the current is now adding to speed to it, so is really going " b + c " fast.

The time it took one way, is the same time it took back, 4 hours each way.

thus

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{t}\\
&------&------&------\\
Upstream&20&b-c&4\\
Downstream&32&b+c&4
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
20=4(b-c)\implies \frac{20}{4}=b-c\implies 5+c=\boxed{b}\\
32=4(b+c)\implies \frac{32}{4}=b+c\implies 8=b+c\\
--------------------\\
8=\left(\boxed{5+c} \right)+c
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
8=5+2c\implies 3=2c\implies \cfrac{3}{2}=c\implies 1\frac{1}{2}=c$

what's the speed of the boat? well, 5 + c = b.

What is the area of a rectangle floor that is 7’3” long and 4’2” wide

Svetllana [295]

<h3>✽ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~Hello There!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ✽</h3>

➷ Area = length x width

Convert all the values into just inches:

7'3'' = 87 inches

4'2'' = 50 inches

Substitute these values in:

area = 87 x 50

Solve:

area = 4350 in^2

3) An existing track is perpendicular to y=1/2x + 2 and passes through B(7,5)

stira [4]

Answer:

2. $y=\frac{1}{2}x +3$

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The line will be parallel to the current track which means they have the same slope. To write the equation, use the slope m=1/2 and the point (2,4) in point slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$

This is the equation of the line. You can convert it to slope intercept form:

$y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)\\y-4 = \frac{1}{2}x -1 \y=\frac{1}{2}x +3$

(Brainliest) Can someone please answer this

Lorico [155]

1. The perimeter is 20. How I got that is to add all of them together- 9+3+3+3+2=20. The area is the area is 15. How I got that was I did the little square with 3 and 2 first. 3 times 2 = 6, then I did the 3 and 3 which = 9 and added those together 9+6=15

2. The perimeter is 15. How I got that is I add them all together. 6+3+2+2+2=15. The area is 10. I did 3 times 2 = 6, 2 times 2 = 4, 6+4=10
