Answer:

As a rule of thumb, if you know only the two shorter side, their ratio is the tangent of the angle opposed to the side you use as a numerator.

If you know one side and the hypotenuse, the ratio side/hypotenuse is either the sine of the opposite angle, or the cosine of the adjacent angle.

Given the vectors u = <5,-1> and v = <1,12>, find -7u-3v. *

zepelin [54]

You multiply vectors and scalar simply by multiplying each component by that scalar:

$-7u = \langle-35,7\rangle,\quad -3v=\langle -3,-36\rangle$

Finally, you sum two vectors by summing the correspondent coordinates:

$-7u-3v = \langle-35,7\rangle+\langle -3,-36\rangle = \langle-38,-29\rangle$

Sam the Hummingbird flies at a rate of 2 yards per minute, as modeled by the equation y = 2x. She

daser333 [38]

Answer:

See attachment for plot

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y =2x$

$R =+2$ --- increment in the rate

First, we need to model the new rate

A linear equation is:

$y = mx + b$

Where

$m = rate$

Compare $y =2x$ and $y = mx + b$ . we have:

$m =2$

The above represents the previous rate.

The new rate:

$R =+2$

Rewrite as:

$R = m+2$

$R = 2+2$

$R = 4$

So, the model is:

$y = Rx$

$y = 4x$

The plot at 1 and 2 minutes

When $x = 1$

$y = 4x = 4 * 1 = 4$

When $x = 2$

$y = 4x = 4 * 2 = 8$

So, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) =(1,4)$

$(x_2,y_2) =(2,8)$

Whether she moves backwards or forward, the distance covered remains the same

56of the 90pets in the pet show are cats 4/5of the cats are calico cats. What fraction of the pets are calico cats?

meriva

To get the answer, we can divide 56 by 5 to find one fifth of the cats. Then, we can multiply this number to get four fifths of the cats. Then, we put this number over 90 since there is 90 pets in the entire show. Then, this answer ends up being about half all of the pets are calicos.
