Three years ago, Sherman was twice as old as Clive. If Clive’s present age is c, which expression represents Sherman’s present a

ge in terms of Clive’s age? 2c − 3 2c + 6 2(c − 3) 2c + 3

2(c-3)=s

because you have to subtract 3 years from sherman's age first, so you need the parentheses

What is the best approximation of the projection of (5,-1) onto (2,6)?

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Hence, the scalar projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ = $\frac{\sqrt{10} }{5}$ , and the vector projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ = $\frac{1}{5} \hat i+\frac{3}{5} \hat j$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given two points $(5, -1)$ and $(2, 6)$ .

Let, $\vec a=5\hat {i}-\hat {j}$ and $\vec b= 2\hat {i}+6\hat{j}$ .

and we have calculate the projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ .

Now,

For the calculation of projection, first we need to calculate the dot product of $\vec a$ and $\vec b$ .

$\vec a.\vec b=(5\hat {i}-\hat{j}).(2\hat{i}+6\hat{j})$

$=10-6$

$=4$

then, we have to calculate the magnitude of $\vec b$ .

$\mid {\vec {b}}\mid$ = $\sqrt{2^{2}+6^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{40}$ = $2\sqrt{10}$ .

Now, the scalar projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ = $\frac{\vec a.\vec b}{\mid b\mid}$

= $\frac{4}{2\sqrt{10} }$ $\frac{2}{\sqrt{10} } \times\frac{\sqrt{10} }{\sqrt{10} } =\frac{2\sqrt{10} }{10} = \frac{\sqrt{10} }{5}$

and the vector projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ = $\frac{\vec a. \vec b}{\mid\vec b \mid^{2} } . \vec b$

= $\frac{4}{40} . (2\hat i+ 6\hat j)$

= $\frac{1}{5} \hat i+\frac{3}{5} \hat j$

Hence, the scalar projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ = $\frac{\sqrt{10} }{5}$ , and the vector projection of $\vec a$ onto $\vec b$ = $\frac{1}{5} \hat i+\frac{3}{5} \hat j$ .

Robert plans to make a box-and-whisker plot of the following set of data.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

lower quartile: 18; median: 27; upper quartile: 38

Step-by-step explanation:

The given set of data is

27, 14, 46, 38, 32, 18, 21

Arrange this set of data in numeric order

14,18,21,27,32,38,46

The given set of data has 7 numbers which is odd.

Median in the middle value. The middle value of the data is fourth value which is 27.

Hence, median = 27

Now, the first half of the set of data is

14,18,21

Middle value = 18

Hence, lower quartile = 18

The second half is 32,38,46

Middle value = 38

Hence, uper quartile = 38

Thus, the correct option is

lower quartile: 18; median: 27; upper quartile: 38
