A hurricane was detected in the Atlantic around 5 a.m. The National Weather Service determined that it will make landfall at a l

ocation described by a vector with components [3, 7]. Around 6 a.m. on the same path, the hurricane is 1/10 the total distance from where it was detected initially to where it will make landfall.
If the hurricane is traveling on a straight path, what are the characteristics of the vector representing the path of the hurricane at 6 a.m.?

A) components: [0.30, 0.70], magnitude: 0.76
B) components: [0.30, 0.70], magnitude: 76
C) components: [30,70], magnitude: 0.76
D) components: [30,70], magnitude: 76

Answer:

The correct option is;

A) Components: [0.30, 0.70], magnitude: 0.76

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The path of the of the airplane at 5 a.m. given by The National Weather Service = [3, 7]

The location of the hurricane at 6 a.m. = 1/10 of the total distance between the point where it was detected to the point where it is predicted to make land fall

Therefore;

The components of the vector at 6.00 a.m. = 1/10 × [3, 7] = [0.3, 0.7]

The magnitude of the vector at 6.00 a. m. = √(0.3² + 0.7²) ≈ 0.76.

The radius AND height of a cylinder are each doubled. What is the new volume?
Naya [18.7K]

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = \pi hr^2

Let h\mapsto 2h and r\mapsto 2r

The new volume becomes

V = \pi(2h)(2r)^2 = \pi\cdot 2h \cdot 4r^2 = 8\pi hr^2

So, the new volume is 8 times the original volume. In fact, volume scales linearly with the height and quadratically with the radius.

Why is it important to calculate the distance between two points on a cartesian coordinate plane?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Derived from the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance formula is used to find the distance between two points in the plane. The Pythagorean Theorem,

a

2

+

b

2

=

c

2

, is based on a right triangle where a and b are the lengths of the legs adjacent to the right angle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse. The relationship of sides

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

to side d is the same as that of sides a and b to side c. We use the absolute value symbol to indicate that the length is a positive number because the absolute value of any number is positive. (For example,

|

−

3

|

=

3

. ) The symbols

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

indicate that the lengths of the sides of the triangle are positive. To find the length c, take the square root of both sides of the Pythagorean Theorem.

c

2

=

a

2

+

b

2

→

c

=

√

a

2

+

b

It follows that the distance formula is given as

d

2

=

(

x

−

x

)

(

y

−

y

)

→

d

=

√

(

x

2

−

x

1

)

2

+

(

y

2

−

y

1

)

2

We do not have to use the absolute value symbols in this definition because any number squared is positive.

A GENERAL NOTE: THE DISTANCE FORMULA

Given endpoints

(

x

,

y

)

and

(

x

,

y

)

, the distance between two points is given by

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 6 that goes through (2, 10).
neonofarm [45]
If the line is perpendicular, then its slope is the reciprocal of the given line's slope. This new line's slope is 1/2. We plug it into slope-intercept form

y = 1/2x + b

Now plug in the given point of (2, 10) and solve for b. 

10 = 1/2(2) + b
10 = 1 + b
9 = b

So your equation is y = 1/2x + 9
