Answer:

The horizontal displacement is 11 units, the vertical displacement is 9 units, and the projection angle is 39.3 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start using the definition of displacement in one dimension between any 2 points which is the difference between them, so we have

\Delta s = s_2-s_1

And apply it to get the horizontal and vertical displacements.

Once we have found them, we can use trigonometric functions to find the projection angle with respect the horizontal.

Linear displacements.

Using the definition of displacement, we can write the horizontal displacement as

\Delta x = x_2-x_1

So we can use the given points P1:(x_1,y_2)  \text{  and  } P_2: (x_2,y_2) on the displacement formula

\Delta x = 15-4\\\Delta x = 11

In the same manner we can look at the y components of those points to find the vertical displacement

\Delta y = 17-8\\\Delta y =9

Thus the horizontal displacement is 11 units and the vertical displacement is 9 units.

Projection angle.

The projection angle with respect the horizontal is the angle that is made between the line that connects the points P1 and P2 and the horizontal, so we can use the linear displacements previously found to write

\tan(\theta) = \cfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}

Solving for the angle we get

\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\cfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}\right)

Replacing values

\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\cfrac{9}{11}\right)

Which give us

\theta = 39.3^\circ

So the projection angle is 39.3 degrees.

Deacon wants to order DVDs. Each DVD costs $12.95, and he must pay a shipping and handling fee of $4.95 for the entire order. De
eduard

Answer:

12.95a + 4.95 ≤ 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of each DVD = $12.95

Total shipping fee = $4.95

Total amount as gift card = $75

Find;

Inequality

Computation:

Assume;

Number of DVD he purchase = a

So,

Total amount as gift card ≥ (Cost of each DVD)(Number of DVD he purchase ) + Total shipping fee

75 ≥ (12.95)(a) + 4.95

12.95a + 4.95 ≤ 75

A cube has how many vertices
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: 8 vertices

Step-by-step explanation: A cube has 6 square faces. Each segment formed by the intersection of 2 faces is called an edge so a cube has 12 edges. Each point formed by the intersection of 3 edges is called a vertex so a cube has 8 vertices.
