This can be solved a couple of ways. One way is to use the Pythagorean theorem to write equations for the magnitude from the components of the forces. That is what was done in the graph here.
Another way is to use the Law of Cosines, which lets you make direct use of the angle between the vectors.
.. 13 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab*cos(90°)
.. 19 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab*cos(120°)
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we have
.. 6 = -2ab*cos(120°)
.. ab = 6
Substituting this into the first equation, we have
.. 13 = a^2 +(6/a)^2
.. a^4 -13a^2 +36 = 0
.. (a^2 -9)(a^2 -4) = 0
.. a = ±3 or ±2
The magnitudes of the two forces are 2N and 3N, in no particular order.
Answer:
Using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,200 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 30 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,200 / 30
= 40 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.00 so the total cost is:
= 40 * 3
= $120
Without using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,211 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 29 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,211 / 29
= 41.76 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.40 so the total cost is:
= 41.76 * 3.40
= $141.98
<em>Using the estimate provides a lower cost of gasoline for the trip. </em>
<span>The yearly value of the health insurance from job A is $4380. To find this, take the $450 per month, and subtract Frank's contribution of $85. 450-85=$365 benefit per month. Multiply the monthly benefit by 12 months to get 365*12=4380.
The yearly value of the health insurance from job B is $4620. To find this, take the $500 per month and subtract Frank's contribution, 500-115=385. No multiply the monthly benefit by 12 to get 385*12=4620.</span>
I used math
anyway
remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
so
4n+2 and 1/2=2n+5
minus 2n both sides
4n-2n+2 and 1/2=2n-2n+5
2n+2 and 1/2=0+5
2n+2 and 1/2=5
minus 2 and 1/2 both sides
2n=2 and 1/2
divide both sides by 2
I mean times both sides by 1/2
n=1 and 1/4
answer is C
Answer:
P = 0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are to use the probability distribution in the table to calculate the probability that a children has 4 or more shoes in his or her closet
When we say 4 or more, what we mean by this is that the teenager has 4 shoes or 5 shoes
In probability expressions, when we use the term ‘or’ we are simply talking about adding the terms involved
So what we can do here is to add the probability that the teenager has 4 shoes to the probability that the teenager has five shoes
From the table that would be; 0.1 + 0.2 = 0.3
