A girl runs 40 m, west, 50 m south, 60 m, east. what is his net displacement?

1 answer:

5 0

The displacement of the girl which the relative change in her position from her starting point. Therefore, the shortest distance between her initial and final position is 58.85 m North - West

From the sketch of the girls movement attached below, the displacement of the girl can be calculated thus :

Using Pythagoras :

Displacement, d = √(50² + 20²)

d = √(2500 + 400)

d = √2900

d = 53.851

Therefore, the displacement of the girl, which is the shortest distance between her current position and starting position is 53.85 meters NW.

Write an expression for the area of the shaded region in its simplest form.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

area = Iw

Explanation:

area = lw

where

l = length

w = width

Therefore,

The area of the shaded region = area of the big rectangle - area of the small rectangle

Therefore,

area of the big rectangle = (x+10)(2x+5) = 2x² + 5x + 20x + 50 = 2x² + 25x + 50

area of the small rectangle = (x+1)(x+1) = x² + x + x + 1 = x² + 2x + 1

area of the shaded region = 2x² + 25x + 50 - ( x² + 2x + 1)

area of the shaded region = 2x² + 25x + 50 - x² - 2x - 1

area of the shaded region = x² - 23x - 49
