Sedaia [141]3 years ago

What helped me find the answer if I am correct would be that I drew a number line to represent the distance the boat is moving from the port. The first thing I did was I drew an arrow pointing to the right all the was to the number 12 and then I drew another arrow pointing to the left to show that the boat moved 5 miles to the east and the the question asked now how many miles is the boat from the port so the answer would be 7 miles. P.s. Sorry this is soooo long.

A cylinder has a height of 12 inches and a radius of 1.5 inches. What is its voulme? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Use
Lerok [7]

Answer:

It's volume is of 84.78 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder:

The volume of a cylinder with radius r and height h is given by:

V = \pi r^2h

A cylinder has a height of 12 inches and a radius of 1.5 inches.

This means that h = 12, r = 1.5

What is its volume?

V = \pi r^2h = 3.14(1.5)^2(12) = 84.78

It's volume is of 84.78 cubic inches.

A point is randomly chosen on a map of North America. Describe the probability of the point being in each location: North Americ
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

We know that the map is of North America:

The probabilities are:

1) North America:

As the map is a map of North America, you can point at any part of the map and you will be pointing at North America, so the probability is p = 1

or 100% in percentage form.

2) New York City.

Here we can think this as:

The map of North America is an extension of area, and New Yorck City has a given area.

As larger is the area of the city, more probable to being randomly choosen, so to find the exact probability we need to find the quotient between the area of New York City and the total area of North America:

New York City = 730km^2

North America = 24,709,000 km^2

So the probability of randomly pointing at New York City is:

P = ( 730km^2)/(24,709,000 km^2) = 3x10^-5 or 0.003%

3) Europe:

As this is a map of Noth America, you can not randomly point at Europe in it (Europe is other continent).

So the probaility is 0 or 0%.

Explain and demonstrate the multiplication of complex conjugates using 2+3i and its complex conjugate. Be sure to discuss all st
krok68 [10]

The product of a <em>complex</em> number and its conjugate is (a + i b) · (a - i b), where a and b are <em>real</em> numbers, and the result for the <em>complex</em> number 2 + i 3 is 13.

<h3>What is the multiplication of a complex number and its conjugate</h3>

Let be a <em>complex</em> number a + i b, whose conjugate is a - i b. Where a and b are <em>real</em> numbers. The product of these two numbers is:

(a + i b) · (a - i b)

Then, we proceed to obtain the result by some algebraic handling:

a · (a + i b) + (- i b) · (a + i b)

a² + i a · b - i a · b - i² b²

a² - i² b²

a² + b²

If we know that a = 2 and b = 3, then the product of the complex number and its conjugate is:

z\cdot \bar z = 2^{2} + 3^{2}

z\cdot \bar z = 13
