Answer:

Vector (ordered pair - rectangular form)

\vec F = (27.189,12.679)\,[lbf]

Vector (ordered pair - polar form)

\vec F = (30\,lbf, 25^{\circ})

Sum of vectorial components (linear combination)

\vec F = 27.189\cdot \hat{i} + 12.679\cdot \hat{j}\,[N]

Step-by-step explanation:

From statement we know that force exerted on the wagon has a magnitude of 30 pounds-force and an angle of 25° above the horizontal, which corresponds to the +x semiaxis, whereas the vertical is represented by the +y semiaxis.

The force (\vec F), in pounds-force, can be modelled in two forms:

Vector (ordered pair - rectangular form)

\vec F =  \left(\|\vec F\|\cdot \cos \theta, \|\vec F\|\cdot \sin \theta\right) (1)

Vector (ordered pair - polar form)

\vec F = \left(\|\vec F\|, \theta\right)

Sum of vectorial components (linear combination)

\vec {F} = \left(\|\vec F\|\cdot \cos \theta\right)\cdot \hat{i} + \left(\|\vec F\|\cdot \sin \theta \right)\cdot \hat{j} (2)

Where:

\|\vec F\| - Norm of the vector force, in newtons.

\theta - Direction of the vector force with regard to the horizontal, in sexagesimal degrees.

\hat{i}, \hat{j} - Orthogonal axes, no unit.

If we know that \|\vec F\| = 30\,lbf and \theta = 25^{\circ}, then the force exerted on the wagon is:

Vector (ordered pair - rectangular form)

\vec F= \left(30\cdot \cos 25^{\circ}, 30\cdot \sin 25^{\circ}\right)\,[lbf]

\vec F = (27.189,12.679)\,[lbf]

Vector (ordered pair - polar form)

\vec F = (30\,lbf, 25^{\circ})

Sum of vectorial components (linear combination)

\vec F = (30\cdot \cos 25^{\circ})\cdot \hat{i} + (30\cdot \sin 25^{\circ})\cdot \hat{j}\,[N]

\vec F = 27.189\cdot \hat{i} + 12.679\cdot \hat{j}\,[N]

Cleo wants to jion a gym. There is an initiation fee of $24.99, and each month of membership costs $12.50. If Cleo pays $174.99,
mamaluj [8]

Answer: The membership will last for 12 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of months that the membership would last.

Cleo wants to join a gym. There is an initiation fee of $24.99, and each month of membership costs $12.50. This means that the total cost of using the gym for x months would be expressed as

12.5x + 24.99

If Cleo pays $174.99, it means that

12.5x + 24.99 = 174.99

12.5x = 174.99 - 24.99

12.5x = 150

x = 150/12.5

x = 12
