Answer:

a. 25.98i - 15j mi/h

b. 1.71i + 4.7j mi/h

c. 27.69i -10.3j mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Identify the ship's vector

Since the ship moves through water at 30 miles per hour at an angle of 30° south of east, which is in the fourth quadrant. So, the x-component of the ship's velocity is v₁ = 30cos30° = 25.98 mi/h and the y-component of the ship's velocity is v₂ = -30sin30° = -15 mi/h

Thus the ship's velocity vector as ship moves through the water v = v₁i + v₂j = 25.98i + (-15)j = 25.98i - 15j mi/h

b. Identify the water current's vector

Also, since the water is moving at 5 miles per hour at an angle of 20° south of east, this implies that it is moving at an angle 90° - 20° = 70° east of north, which is in the first quadrant. So, the x-component of the water's velocity is v₃ = 5cos70° = 1.71 mi/h and the y-component of the water's velocity is v₄ = 5sin70° = 4.7 mi/h

Thus the ship's velocity vector v' = v₃i + v₄j = 1.71i + 4.7j mi/h

c. Identify the vector representing the ship's actual motion.

The velocity vector representing the ship's actual motion is V = velocity vector of ship as ship moves through water + velocity vector of water current.

V = v + v'

= 25.98i - 15j mi/h + 1.71i + 4.7j mi/h

= (25.98i + 1.71i + 4.7j - 15j )mi/h

= 27.68i -10.3j mi/h

Anettt [7]
Part A: Coefficient is either the 75 or 8 since it's linked with the Variable(letter) d or w. The only constant is 25
Part B: 75(5)+8(48)+25=$784 Just plug in for the variables.
Part C: Only the constant since it is a set amount and it is not changed based on days or windows installed.

There are 527 pencils,646 erasers and 748 sharpeners. These are to be put in separate packets containing the same number of item
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

  • 31 pencils
  • 38 erasers
  • 44 sharpeners

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of packets is the greatest common divisor of the given numbers of pencils, erasers, and sharpeners.

It can be helpful to look at the differences between these numbers:

  748 -646 = 102

  646 -527 = 119

The difference of these differences is 17, suggesting that will be the number of packets possible.

  527 = 17 × 31

  646 = 17 × 38

  748 = 17 × 44

The numbers 31, 38, and 44 are relatively prime (31 is actually prime), so there can be no greater number of packets than 17.

There will be 31 pencils, 38 erasers, and 44 sharpeners in each of the 17 packets.

_____

We may have worked the wrong problem. The way it is worded, the <em>maximum</em> number of items in each packet will be 527 pencils, 646 erasers, and 748 sharpeners in one (1) packet. The <em>minimum</em> number of items in each packet will be the number that corresponds to the maximum number of packets. Since 17 is the maximum number of packets, each packet's contents are as described above.

17 is the only common factor of the given numbers, so will be the number of groups (plural) into which the items can be arranged.
