Answer:

The height is 4.472

Step-by-step explanation:

That formula is Heron's formula.

Where "s" is calculated like this:

s = (a + b + c) / 2

In this case:

a = 14

b = 12

c = 6

replacing:

s = (14 + 12 + 6) / 2

s = 16

Now we calculate the area:

A ^ 2 = 16 * (16−14) * (16−12) * (16−6)

A ^ 2 = 1280

A = 35.777

The area of the triangle is:

A = b * h / 2

In this case we will take the base as the longest side of the triangle, that is to say = 14

Thus:

h = A * 2 / b

h = 35.777 * 2/16

h = 4.472

So the height is 4.472

If Vector u=(5,-7) and v=(-11,3), 2v-6u=_____ and ||2v-6u||≈_____

Sauron [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}=(-52,48) \\ \\ ||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}||=75.28}$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In this problem we have two vectors:

$\vec{u}=(5,-7) \ and \ \vec{v}=(-11,3)$

So we need to find two things:

$2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}$

and:

$||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}||$

FIRST:

In this case we have the multiplication of vectors by scalars. A scalar is a simple number, so:

$2\vec{v}-6\vec{u} \\ \\ Replace \ \vec{v} \ and \ \vec{u} \ by \ the \ given \ vectors: \\ \\ 2(-11,3)-6(5,-7) \\ \\ Multiply \ each \ component \ by \ the \ corresponding \ scalar:\\ \\ (2\times (-11),2\times 3)+(-6\times 5,-6\times (-7)) \\ \\ (-22,6)+(-30,42) \\ \\ Sum \ of \ vectors: \\ \\ (-22-30,6+42) \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{(-52,48)}$

SECOND:

If we name:

$\vec{w}=2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}$

Then, $||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}||$ is the magnitude of the vector $\vec{w}$ . Therefore:

$||\vec{w}||=||2\vec{v}-6\vec{u}|| \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=||(-52,48)|| \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=\sqrt{(-58)^2+48^2} \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=\sqrt{3364+2304} \\ \\ ||\vec{w}||=\sqrt{5668} \\ \\ \boxed{||\vec{w}||=75.28}$

Solve the equation q/1.6=5

koban [17]

Answer:

q = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for q, you must isolate it.

In this case, you must isolate the q by multiplying 1.6 on both sides.

This makes the answer to be q = 8.

Rationalize the denominator of square root of negative 49 over open parentheses 7 minus 2 i close parentheses minus open parenth

navik [9.2K]

The answer is the option d, which is: d) $\frac{-77+21i}{130}$

The explanation for this problem is shown below:

1. Smplify the denominator and rewrite the numerator in this form:

$\frac{7i}{7-2i-4-9i} \\\frac{7i}{3-11i}$

2. Multiply the denominator and the numerator by the conjugated $(3+11i)$ and simplify the expression, as following:

$\frac{7i(3+11i)}{(3-11i)(3+11i)} \\ \frac{21i+77i^{2}}{121+9} \\ \frac{-77+21i}{130}$

3. As you can see, you obtain the expression shown in the option mentioned above.
