A car is driving down a road at a normal speed of 50 miles per hour. It enters a hilly area of gradual incline and decline, wher

e it must drive 50 miles up hill and then 50 miles downhill. If this 100 mile section of road takes 2.6 hours to traverse instead of the expected 2 hours (the time it would take if the road was completely flat) determine the speed that the hills add or subtract when going over.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume that the car goes 50-x mph uphill and 50+x mph downhill.

Find a unit vector in the same direction as the given vector: v = −14.5i + 2.5 j.
Elis [28]

ANSWER

-  \frac{29}{866}  \sqrt{866} i + \frac{5}{866}  \sqrt{866} j

EXPLANATION

The given vector is v = −14.5i + 2.5 j.

The magnitude of this vector is

|v|  =  \sqrt{ {( - 14.5)}^{2}  +  {2.5}^{2} }

v|  =  \sqrt{ {( - 14.5)}^{2}  +  {2.5}^{2} }

v|  =  \sqrt{ 216.5}  =  \frac{ \sqrt{866} }{2}

The unit vector in the direction of this vector is

=  \frac{v}{ |v| }

= -   \frac{14.5}{ \frac{ \sqrt{866} }{2} } i +    \frac{2.5}{ \frac{ \sqrt{866} }{2} } j

=  -  \frac{29}{866}  \sqrt{866} i + \frac{5}{866}  \sqrt{866} j

one of the Interior angles of a triangle is equal to 30 degrees and one of the exterior angles is equal to 40 degrees find the r
Sonja [21]
If one of the exterior angles is 40, you can find its adjacent interior angle by subtracting 40 from 180. This is 40, so the triangle has 2 interior angles that are equal to 40. Now we have 2 of 3 interior angles. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180, so we can set this equation up:

x + 40 + 40 = 180
x + 80 = 180
x = 100

So the triangle's angles have measures of 40,40 and 100 degrees.
