Answer:

£18

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of the game

Increase in price = 1/2

New price = £27

x + 1/2x = £27

2x+x/2 = 27

3/2x = 27

x = 27 ÷ 3/2

= 27 × 2/3

= 54 / 3

x = £18

Therefore, the original price of the game is £18

Answer:

£18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of the game

Increase in price = 1/2

New price = £27

x + 1/2x = £27

2x+x/2 = 27

3/2x = 27

x = 27 ÷ 3/2

= 27 × 2/3

= 54 / 3

x = £18

Therefore, the original price of the game is £18

A side of a square is A = 8^(3/2) inches. Using the area formula A = s2, determine the area of the square.?A = 24 square inches
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

512 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If A = s², and s=8^{\frac{3}{2}}, then

A=s^2=(8^{\frac{3}{2}})^2 and

A=s^2=8^{\frac{6}{2}} which simplifies to

A=s^2=8^3 which simplifies to

A=s^2=512

Therefore, if A=s^2 and s^2=512, then

A = 512 square inches

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
