4.2 is also equal to 42/10 which is equal to 21/5. In order to find how many trips you will be dividing fractions (21/5) / (3/5). Although this may seems difficult, because the denominators are the same, it simplifies to 21/3 which is equal to 7 (A)

On a map the distance from Fort Collins to Cheyenne is 3.2 inches. The angle formed at Laramie has measure 43.6º, and the angle
MArishka [77]
We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).

The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).

We can use the law of sines to solve this where:

sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches

We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:

3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.

Let A = (1, 0, 3) and B = (−3, 2, 1).
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

a) (-\frac{\sqrt{24}}{6} ,\frac{\sqrt{24}}{12} ,-\frac{\sqrt{24}}{12})

b) (-1,1,2)

c) -2x+y-z=1

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

AB, OB, OA are vectors.

AB = OB - OA = (-3, 2, 1) - (1, 0, 3) = (-4, 2, -2)\\||AB|| = \sqrt{(-4)^2+2^2+(-2)^2}=\sqrt{24}\\

Normalizing AB: \frac{AB}{||AB||} = (\frac{-4}{\sqrt{24}},\frac{2}{\sqrt{24}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{24}})=(-\frac{\sqrt{24}}{6} ,\frac{\sqrt{24}}{12} ,-\frac{\sqrt{24}}{12})

b)

OM, OA, OB are vectors.

OM = \frac{1}{2}OA+\frac{1}{2}OB=(\frac{-3+1}{2} ,\frac{2+0}{2}, \frac{1+3}{2} )=(-1,1,2)

So, M = (-1,1,2)

c)

-4x+2y-2z=(-4)(-1)+(2)(1)+(-2)(2)=4+2-4=2

Hence,

-2x+y-z=1

<h3>answer </h3>

<em>they</em><em> </em><em>will</em><em> </em><em>reach</em><em> </em><em>at</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>same</em><em> </em><em>time</em><em>.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>first</em><em> </em><em>we</em><em> </em><em>need</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>find</em><em> </em><em>out</em><em> </em><em>total</em><em> </em><em>Miles</em><em> </em><em>covered</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>bus</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>truck</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em>hour</em><em>,</em>

<em>so</em><em>,</em>

<em>300</em><em>÷</em><em>6</em><em>=</em><em>50</em><em> </em><em>miles</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em>hour</em>

<em>200</em><em>÷</em><em>4</em><em>=</em><em>50</em><em> </em><em>miles</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em>hour</em>

<em>so</em><em> </em><em>they</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>will</em><em> </em><em>reach</em><em> </em><em>at</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>same</em><em> </em><em>time</em><em>.</em>

<em>hope</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em> </em><em>will</em><em> </em><em>help</em><em> </em><em>you</em>
