Answer:

a. 277.3 m²

b. $307.86

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Area of the wall to be painted = area of rectangle - area of triangle

= L × W + ½×a×b×sin θ

L = 17 m

W = 14 m

a = 8.7 m

b = 9.5 m

θ = 72°

Plug in the values into the equation

Area of the wall = (17×14) + (½*8.7×9.5×sin 72)

Area of the wall = 238 + 39.3024105

Area of the wall to paint ≈ 277.3 m²

b. 20 liters of paint of 1 container cost $21.99

If 1 liter of paint covers 1m², therefore,

277.3 m² will need = 277.3 × 1 = 277.3 liters of paint.

20 liters = 1 container of paint

277.3 liters = 277.3/20 = 13.865 ≈ 14 containers

1 container = $21.99

14 containers = 21.99 × 14 = $307.86

I can't figure out how to do (i + j) x (i x j)for vector calc
Vinil7 [7]

In three dimensions, the cross product of two vectors is defined as shown below

\begin{gathered} \vec{A}=a_1\hat{i}+a_2\hat{j}+a_3\hat{k} \\ \vec{B}=b_1\hat{i}+b_2\hat{j}+b_3\hat{k} \\ \Rightarrow\vec{A}\times\vec{B}=\det (\begin{bmatrix}{\hat{i}} & {\hat{j}} & {\hat{k}} \\ {a_1} & {a_2} & {a_3} \\ {b_1} & {b_2} & {b_3}\end{bmatrix}) \end{gathered}

Then, solving the determinant

\Rightarrow\vec{A}\times\vec{B}=(a_2b_3-b_2a_3)\hat{i}+(b_1a_3+a_1b_3)\hat{j}+(a_1b_2-b_1a_2)\hat{k}

In our case,

\begin{gathered} (\hat{i}+\hat{j})=1\hat{i}+1\hat{j}+0\hat{k} \\ \text{and} \\ (\hat{i}\times\hat{j})=(1,0,0)\times(0,1,0)=(0)\hat{i}+(0)\hat{j}+(1-0)\hat{k}=\hat{k} \\ \Rightarrow(\hat{i}\times\hat{j})=\hat{k} \end{gathered}

Where we used the formula for AxB to calculate ixj.

Finally,

\begin{gathered} (\hat{i}+\hat{j})\times(\hat{i}\times\hat{j})=(1,1,0)\times(0,0,1) \\ =(1\cdot1-0\cdot0)\hat{i}+(0\cdot0-1\cdot1)\hat{j}+(1\cdot0-0\cdot1)\hat{k} \\ \Rightarrow(\hat{i}+\hat{j})\times(\hat{i}\times\hat{j})=1\hat{i}-1\hat{j} \\ \Rightarrow(\hat{i}+\hat{j})\times(\hat{i}\times\hat{j})=\hat{i}-\hat{j} \end{gathered}

Thus, (i+j)x(ixj)=i-j

Radio signals travel at a rate of 3 × 108 meters per second. How many seconds will it take for a radio signal to travel from a s
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

1.1888 (8 goes on forever) seconds to travel from the satellite to Earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is traveling at 3 x 108 m/s and needs to travel 3.6 x 107 m. 3 x 108=324 and 3.6 x 107=385.2 so 324 m/s for 385.2 m. 385.2/325=1.1888.
