Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, we need to set up an equation to find the value of x and then the length of EF.

2. We know that DG is equal to 33, so we can add all the three sections it's cut into altogether to get 33. Therefore, we get an equation of: $3x - 28 + 3x - 30 + x = 33$

3. (Solving for x)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

$3x - 28 + 3x - 30 + x = 33$
$(3x+3x+x) + (-28-30)=33$
$7x - 58 = 33$

Step 2: Add 58 to both sides.

$7x - 58 + 58 = 33 + 58$
$7x = 91$

Step 3: Divide both sides by 7.

$\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{91}{7}$
$x = 13$

4. Now that we know x is equal to 13, we can plug that value in for the expression 3x - 30.

$3(13)-30$
$39 - 30$
$9$

Therefore, the length of EF is 9.

Bad White [126]

7 is 1/4 of 28, so 7 is 25% of 28.
The drop from 28 to 7 is a drop of 21.
21 is 3 times 7, so 21 is 3 times 25%.

Answer: It is a 75% decrease.

What is the scale factor from ADEF to AABC? 10 6 20 12 А 7 14

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The scale factor is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\triangle DE F$ and $\triangle ABC$

Required

The scale factor from $\triangle DE F$ to $\triangle ABC$

Take a corresponding side in both triangles.

We have:

$DE= 20$ $AB = 10$

The scale factor from $\triangle DE F$ to $\triangle ABC$ is:

$k =\frac{AB}{DE}$

$k =\frac{10}{20}$

$k =\frac{1}{2}$

compute the projection of → a onto → b and the vector component of → a orthogonal to → b . give exact answers.

Nina [5.8K]

$\text { Saclar projection } \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \text { and Vector projection } \frac{1}{3}(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})$

We have been given two vectors $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ , we are to find out the scalar and vector projection of $\vec{b}$ onto $\vec{a}$

we have $\vec{a}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and $\vec{b}=\hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k}$

The scalar projection of $\vec{b}$ onto $\vec{a}$ means the magnitude of the resolved component of $\vec{b}$ the direction of $\vec{a}$ and is given by

The scalar projection of $\vec{b}$ onto

$\vec{a}=\frac{\vec{b} \cdot \vec{a}}{|\vec{a}|}$

$\begin{aligned}&=\frac{(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}) \cdot(\hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k})}{\sqrt{1^2+1^1+1^2}} \\&=\frac{1^2-1^2+1^2}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\end{aligned}$

The Vector projection of $\vec{b}$ onto $\vec{a}$ means the resolved component of $\vec{b}$ in the direction of $\vec{a}$ and is given by

The vector projection of $\vec{b}$ onto

$\vec{a}=\frac{\vec{b} \cdot \vec{a}}{|\vec{a}|^2} \cdot(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})$

$\begin{aligned}&=\frac{(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}) \cdot(\hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k})}{\left(\sqrt{1^2+1^1+1^2}\right)^2} \cdot(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}) \\&=\frac{1^2-1^2+1^2}{3} \cdot(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})=\frac{1}{3}(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})\end{aligned}$
