Answer:

a. Emily should begin her turn as the third driver at point (1, -0.5).

b. Emily's turn to drive end at point (-2.5, -3.75).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that the group of girls travels from their hometown to San Antonio in a straight line. We know that each location is, respectively:

Hometown

H(x,y) = (8,6)

San Antonio

T(x,y) = (-6,-7)

Then, we can determine the end of each girl's turn to drive by the following vectorial expression based on the vectorial equation of the line:

Steph

S(x,y) = H(x,y) + \frac{1}{4}\cdot [T(x,y)-H(x,y)] (1)

S(x,y) = (8,6) + \frac{1}{4}\cdot [(-6,-7)-(8,6)]

S(x,y) = (8,6) +\frac{1}{4}\cdot (-14,-13)

S(x,y) = (4.5,2.75)

Andra

A(x,y) = H(x,y) + \frac{2}{4}\cdot [T(x,y)-H(x,y)] (2)

A(x,y) = (8,6) + \frac{2}{4}\cdot [(-6,-7)-(8,6)]

A(x,y) = (8,6)+\frac{2}{4}\cdot (-14,-13)

A(x,y) =(1, -0.5)

Emily

E(x,y) = H(x,y) + \frac{3}{4}\cdot [T(x,y)-H(x,y)] (3)

E(x,y) = (8,6) + \frac{3}{4}\cdot [(-6,-7)-(8,6)]

E(x,y) = (8,6)+\frac{3}{4}\cdot (-14,-13)

E(x,y) = (-2.5, -3.75)

a. <em>If the girls take turns driving and each girl drives the same distance, at what point should they stop from Emily to begin her turn as the third driver? </em>

Emily's beginning point is the Andra's stop point, that is, A(x,y) =(1, -0.5).

Emily should begin her turn as the third driver at point (1, -0.5).

b. <em>At what point does Emily's turn to drive end?</em>

Emily's turn to drive end at point (-2.5, -3.75).

Find the area of the figure. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Area of the parallelogram= 10\sqrt{3} m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a parallelogram = Length * Perpendicular height

To find the perpendicular height of the parallelogram:

Using given angle 60° in the triangle.

sin(60)=\frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}

\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}=\frac{Perpendicular}{4}  \\\\Perpendicular=\frac{4\sqrt{3} }{2} \\\\Perpendicular=2\sqrt{3} m

Area of the Parallelogram:

                                           =5*2\sqrt{3}\\\\ =10\sqrt{3}

Area of the parallelogram= 10\sqrt{3} m^2

Uriel's hiking stick is 3 2/3 feet long, and Nat's is 3 3/8 feet long. Whose walking stick is longer and by how much?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Uriel's stick is LONGER by 7/24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Uriel's hiking stick is 3 2/3 feet long, and Nat's is 3 3/8 feet long. Whose walking stick is longer and by how much?

The above question is solved as

Uriel's stick - Nat's stick

= 3 2/3 feet - 3 3/8 feet

= 7/24 feet

Hence, Uriel's stick is LONGER by 7/24 feet
