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.

Calculate the mass of a rectangular solid that has a density of 2.53 g/cm3 and which measures 25 mm by 1.80 cm by 3.00 cm.

Annette [7]

Mass = density x volume
1st we need to get the volume
V = (25*10^-1) * (1.8) * (3)
V = 13.5 cm3
mass = 2.53 * 13.5
mass = 34.155 kg

How many cubes with side lengths of 1/3 cm does it take to fill the prism?

user100 [1]

Answer:

The number of cubes that fill the prism is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of cube (l) = $\frac{1}{3}$ cm

The length of prism (L) = 1 cm

The width of prism (w) = 2 $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{8}{3}$ cm

The height of prism (h) = $\frac{2}{3}$ cm

Let the number of cubes that fill the prism = x

Now, Volume of cube with length (l) = l³ cm³

Or, Volume of cube with length (l) = $(\frac{1}{3})^{3}$ cm³

Or, Volume of cube with length (l) = $(\frac{1}{27})$ cm³

Again , Volume of prism = $\frac{1}{2}\times Length \times width \times height$

Or, Volume of prism = $\frac{1}{2}\times 1 \times \frac{8}{3} \times \frac{2}{3}$

Or, Volume of prism = $(\frac{8}{9})$ cm³

<u>So , The number of cubes to fill prism </u>

The number of cubes × Volume of cube = Volume of prism

Or, x × $(\frac{1}{27})$ cm³ = $(\frac{8}{9})$ cm³

or x = $\frac{8\times 27}{9}$ = 24

Hence The number of cubes which fill the prism is 24 Answer

Which statements accurately describe the function f(x) = 3(16)^3/4? Check all that apply.

uysha [10]

Answers:

These are the statements that apply:

The initial value is 3.

The range is y >0.

The simplified base is 8.

Explanation:

1) Given expression:

$f(x)=3(16)^{\frac{3}{4} x$

2) Check every statement:

a) The initial value is 3?

initial value ⇒ x = 0 ⇒

$f(0)=3(16)^{0}=3(1)=3$

∴ The statement is right.

b) The initial value is 48?

Not, as it was already proved that it is 3.

c) The domain is x > 0?

No, because the domain of the exponential functions is all the Real numbers.

d) The range is y > 0?

That is correct, the exponential function is continuous, and monotonon increasing.

The limit when x → - ∞ is zero, but y never reaches zero, and the limit when x → ∞ is + ∞, meaning that the range is y > 0.

e) The simplified base is 12?

This is how you simplify the base:

$3(16)^{\frac{3}{4} x}=3{{(16}^{(3/4)})}^x=3(16^{3/4}})^{x}=3((2^4)^{3/4})^x=3(2^3)^x=3(8)^x$

Which shows that the simplified base is 8 (not 12).

f) The simplified base is 8?

Yes; this was just proved.
