Answer:

It's either 39.2 or 39.3 (a more accurate answer) because it depends on what you round by. since it's Delta Math, you should get 2 attempts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar, they are proportional.

54/11=4.90909091 or 4.9

Multiply 11 by 4.90909091 and you get 54

Multiply 8 by 4.90909091 and you get 39.3

if you multiply by 4.9 you get 39.2

A two-dimensional vector has an x-component of 10.3~\text{meters}10.3 meters and a y-component of 4.30~\text{meters}4.30 meters.

Answer:

23°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle a vector makes relative to the +x axis is found as ...

α = arctan(y/x) = arctan(4.30/10.3) ≈ 22.66°

The angle is about 23°.

<em>Additional comment</em>

This vector resides in the first quadrant, so no adjustment of the angle is needed. In other quadrants, 180° may need to be added or subtracted from the angle given by the arctan function to arrive at the correct value. (Some calculators and spreadsheets have an ATAN2(x, y) function that takes signs into account.)

Patricia purchased x meters of fencing. She originally intended to use all of the fencing to enclose a square region, but later

Answer:

(y^2)/4 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

For a perimeter length of x, the side of a square will be x/4 and its area will be (x/4)^2.

If one side of the square is shortened by y/2 and the adjacent side is lengthened by y/2, then the difference in side lengths will be y. The area of the resulting rectangle will be ...

(x/4 -y/2)(x/4 +y/2) = (x/4)^2 -(y/2)^2

That is, the difference in area between the square and the rectangle is ...

(x/4)^2 - ((x/4)^2 -(y/2)^2) = (y/2)^2 = y^2/4

The positive difference between the area of the square region and the area of the rectangular region is y^2/4 square meters.
