magnitude of the resultant force. Round to two decimal places in all intermediate steps and in your final answer.

Force 1, F1 = 90, angle 30°

Force 2, F2 = 50, angle 160°

F1 = 90 cos(30) i + 90 sin (30) j
F2 = 50 cos (160) i + 50 sin (160) j

F1 = 90*0.866 i + 90*0.5 j
F2 = 50*(- 0.940) i + 50*0.342 j

F1 = 77.94 i + 45 j
F2 = -47 i +17.10 j

Resultant force, Fr = F1 + F2

Fr = [77.94 - 47.00] i +[45 +17.10]j = 30.94 i + 62.10 j

Magnitude = √[30.94 ^2 + 62.10^2] = 69.38 pounds

Direction = arctan[62.10/30.94] = 63.52 °

A bag had 7 orange rocks , 6 green rock , 1 white rock ,7 black rocks , and 2 yellow you randomly pull a rock from the bag ,keep

daser333 [38]

Answer:

$Probability = \frac{7}{253}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Orange = 7$

$Green = 6$

$White = 1$

$Black = 7$

$Yellow = 2$

Required

Probability of selecting a yellow then orange rock

From the question, we understand that the probability is that of without replacement.

Since the yellow, is first picked.

We need to determine the probability of picking a yellow rock, first.

$P(Yellow) = \frac{n(Yellow)}{Total}$

$P(Yellow) = \frac{2}{7 + 6 + 1 + 7 + 2}$

$P(Yellow) = \frac{2}{23}$

The rock has reduced by 1;

Next is to determine the probability of picking an orange rock

$P(Orange) = \frac{n(Orange)}{Total - 1}$

$P(Orange) = \frac{7}{7 + 6 + 1 + 7 + 2- 1}$

$P(Orange) = \frac{7}{22}$

The required probability is calculated as thus:

$Probability = P(Yellow) * P(Orange)$

$Probability = \frac{2}{23} * \frac{7}{22}$

$Probability = \frac{14}{506}$

$Probability = \frac{7}{253}$

Find the length x to the nearest whole number. A right triangle has a vertical leg of length x units, a base leg with a length o

wel

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The value of x is $x = 274 \ unites$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the vertical length is $x$

The length of the base leg is L = 330 + d units

The length of the bisecting line segment is h

The base angle is $\theta = 28^o$

The angle between d and line segment is $\theta_1 = 56^o$

For the first angle

$Tan \theta_1 = \frac{x}{d}$

=> $d = \frac{x}{Tan \theta _1}$

For the whole big triangle

$Tan \theta = \frac{x}{330 + d}$

=> $d = \frac{x}{Tan \theta } -330$

So equating the both d

$\frac{x}{Tan \theta _1} = \frac{x}{Tan \theta } -330$

Substitute values

$\frac{x}{Tan (56)} = \frac{x}{Tan (28) } -330$

$0.6745 x = 1.880x -330$

$1.20549 x = 330$

$x = 274 \ unites$

Esmerelda is five times as old as Ruth. Four years ago, the sum of their ages was 22 years. How old is each now?

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Ruth is x+4=7/3+4, esmerelda is 5x+4=35/3+4

Step-by-step explanation:

if Ruth is x, esmerelda is 5x,

four years ago,

Ruth is x+4, esmerelda is 5x+4, depend on the sum, we get:

x+4+5x+4=22, x=7/3

so:

Ruth is x+4=7/3+4, esmerelda is 5x+4=35/3+4
