-3/7, -8/3 and -5/2,-2 slope

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alja [10]2 years ago
8 0
So the points are (-3/7,-8/3) and (-5/2,-2)
to find the slope do
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x,y)
x1=-3/7
y1=-8/3
x2=-5/2
y2=-2

subsitute
\frac{-2-( \frac{-8}{3} )}{ \frac{-5}{2} - \frac{-3}{7} }
simplify by finding similar denomenators
\frac{\frac{-6}{3}-( \frac{-8}{3} )}{ \frac{-35}{14} - \frac{-6}{14} }
\frac{\frac{-6}{3}( \frac{8}{3} )}{ \frac{-35}{14} + \frac{6}{14} }
add
\frac{\frac{2}{3}}{ \frac{-29}{14}}
multiply top and bottom by \frac{-14}{29
\frac{\frac{-28}{87}}{1}
\frac{-28}{87}
answer is
slope=\frac{-28}{87}

Vector v is shown in the graph.
Elis [28]

Question 4

<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

Explanation:

If the initial point is the origin, the coordinates of the terminal point form the vector itself in component form. We go from (-8,6) to <-8,6>. The notation change is from ordered pair to vector format.

We have a right triangle with legs of 8 and 6 units. The pythagorean theorem will help us determine the hypotenuse is 10. Therefore, the vector length is 10 units and we would say ||v|| = 10. We have a 6-8-10 right triangle.

===========================================================

Question 5

<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3>

Explanation:

Vector v starts at (2,5) and ends at (-3,-2).

The x component of the vector is x2-x1 = -3-2 = -5 meaning we move 5 units to the left when going from the start point to the endpoint.

At the same time we move 7 units down because y2-y1 = -2-5 = -7 which is the y component of the vector.

The component form of vector v is

v = <-5, -7>

it says "move 5 units left, 7 units down".

Apply the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the vector.

a^2+b^2 = c^2

c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)

||v|| = sqrt( (-5)^2 + (-7)^2 )

||v|| = 8.602 which is approximate.

Now let's use the arctangent function to find the angle

theta = arctan(b/a)

theta = arctan(-7/(-5))

theta = 54.462 which is also approximate.

There's a problem however. This angle is in Q1 but the vector <-5,-7> is in Q3. An easy fix is to add on 180 to rotate to the proper quadrant.

54.462+180 = 234.462

which is the proper approximate angle for theta.
