Sam is practicing long track speed skating at an ice skating rink. The distance around the rink is 250 yards. He has skated arou

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

He needs to complete a distance of 4,030 yards around the rink to make a total skating distance of 3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of yards needed to complete 3 miles skating around a rink.

We proceed as follows;

First, we can see he has skated 5 times around a rink that has a distance of 250 yards. His total distance covered would be 250 * 5 = 1250 yards

Now he is looking at completing 3 miles, we need to know the number of yards in 3 miles.

Mathematically, 1 mile = 1760 yards

3 miles = 3 * 1760 = 5,280 yards

To know the number of yards he need to skate more, we simply carry out a subtraction;

5,280 yards - 1250 yards = 4,030 yards

Given u = −8i − 3j and v = −12i − 7j, what is projvu?

8090 [49]

Answer:

(b) -7.275i -4.244j

Step-by-step explanation:

The projection of vector u onto vector v is the product of the unit vector v, the magnitude of vector u, and the cosine of the angle between them.

The dot product gives the product of the magnitudes of the two vectors and the cosine of the angle between them. To find the projection, we must divide the dot product by the magnitude of v and multiply by the unit vector in the direction of v.

$proj(u,v)=(\vec{u}\cdot\vec{v})\cdot\dfrac{\vec{v}}{|\vec{v}|^2}=\dfrac{((-8)(-12)+(-3)(-7))(-12\vec{i}-7\vec{j})}{(-12)^2+(-7)^2}\\\\=\dfrac{-(96+21)(12\vec{i}+7\vec{j})}{144+49}=-\dfrac{117}{193}(12\vec{i}+7\vec{j})\approx\boxed{-7.275\vec{i}-4.244\vec{j}}$
