The resultant of the vectors a = 3i - 2j and b = pi - 2pj is parallel to the vector c = 2i - 3j.
a) Find the value of p
b) Find the resultant of vectors a and b.

Please help me with this question, thank you ​

Answers

Answer 1

Part (a)

The resultant vector is the vector formed by adding the two vectors a and b. So we effectively add the corresponding components.

You can use the parallelogram law as a visual alternative.

Adding a and b leads to

a+b = (3i-2j) + (pi-2pj)

a+b = (3i+pi) + (-2j-2pj)

a+b = (3+p)i - (2+2p)j

Define vector d to be d = a+b so we can use it later below.

Recall that parallel vectors point in the same direction. This means the ratio of their components or coordinates are equal.

We can say the following

(x coord of d)/(x coord of c) = (y coord of d)/(y coord of c)

(3+p)/(2) = (-(2+2p))/(-3)

Let's solve for p

(3+p)/(2) = (-(2+2p))/(-3)

(3+p)/(2) = (2+2p)/3

3(3+p) = 2(2+2p) .... cross multiply

9+3p = 4+4p

4p+4 = 3p+9

4p-3p = 9-4

p = 5

Answer:  p = 5

========================================================

Part (b)

Since p = 5, from part (a), we can determine vector b

b = pi - 2pj

b = 5i - 2*5j

b = 5i - 10j

Then add vectors a and b to get

a+b = (3i-2j) + (5i - 10j)

a+b = (3i+5i) + (-2j - 10j)

a+b = (3+5)i - (2+10)j

a+b = 8i - 12j

Or we can say

a+b = (3+p)i - (2+2p)j  .... from part (a)

a+b = (3+5)i - (2+2*5)j ... plugging in p = 5

a+b = 8i - 12j

Note the ratio of the components of vector d and vector c are such

(x coord of d)/(x coord of c) = (y coord of d)/(y coord of c)

8/2 = -12/(-3)

4 = 4

This helps confirm the answer

You could also graph the vectors c = 2i - 3j and d = 8i - 12j to note the two lines produce the same slope -3/2. We can see that -12/8 = -3/2. Lines of the same slope are parallel lines

Answer:  8i - 12j
Answer 2

a.

The value of p is 5

Since vector a = 3i - 2j and vector b = pi - 2pj, the resultant of vectors a and b is R = a + b

= 3i - 2j + pi - 2pj

= (3 + p)i - 2(1 + p)j

Since R is aparallel to vector c = 2i - 3j, it implies that the cross product of R and c is zero.

The cross product of two vectors a and b is a × b = absinФ where a and b are the magnitudes of a and b and Ф is the angle between them.

So, R × c = [(3 + p)i - 2(1 + p)j] × [2i - 3j]

= (3 + p)i × 2i + (3 + p)i × (-3j) + (-2(1 + p)]j × 2i + (-2(1 + p)]j×(-3j)

= 0 - 3(3 + p)k - 4(1 + p)(-k) + 0

= -3(3 + p)k + 4(1 + p)k

= [-3(3 + p) + 4(1 + p)]k

= [-9 - 3p + 4 + 4p)]k

= [-9 + 4 - 3p + 4p)]k

=  [-5 + p]k

[-5 + p]k = RcsinФ.

Since R and c are parallel, Ф = 0°

So, Rcsin0° = Rc × 0 = 0

So,   [-5 + p]k = 0

-5 + p = 0

p = 5

The value of p is 5

b.

The resultant of vectors a and b is R = 8i - 12j

Since p = 5 and the resultant of vectors a and b is R = (3 + p)i - 2(1 + p)j

Substituting the value of p = 5 into r, we have

R = (3 + p)i - 2(1 + p)j

R = (3 + 5)i - 2(1 + 5)j

R = 8i - 2(6)j

R = 8i - 12j

So, the resultant of vectors a and b is R = 8i - 12j

Randy, Sandy and Todd are my cousins and their combined age is 87 years. Randy is four times as old as Sandy, but Todd is actually 15 years older than Sandy. How old are each of my cousins

Answers

Answer:

Randy is 48 years old

Sandy is 12 years old

Todd is 27 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent their ages with the first letters of their names:

[tex]R + S + T = 87[/tex]

[tex]R = 4 * S[/tex]

[tex]T = 15 + S[/tex]

Required

Determine their individual ages

We'll solve the above equations using substitution method of simultaneous equations

Substitute 15 + S for T and 4 * S for R in [tex]R + S + T = 87[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]4 * S + S + 15 + S = 87[/tex]

[tex]4 S + S + 15 + S = 87[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]4 S + S + S = 87 - 15[/tex]

[tex]6S = 72[/tex]

Divide through by 6

[tex]S = 72/6[/tex]

[tex]S = 12[/tex]

This implies that Sandy is 12 years old

Substitute 12 for S in [tex]R = 4 * S[/tex] and  [tex]T = 15 + S[/tex]

[tex]R = 4 * 12[/tex]

[tex]R = 48[/tex]

[tex]T = 15 + 12[/tex]

[tex]T = 27[/tex]

Answers

Answer: B. y = 5x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the scenario in the question, you didn't really say what you'll like to calculate but I guess you want to know the equation that can be used to represent the above information.

Let x = the number of children babysit

The amount charged by Sandy can then be written as:

y = 10 + 5(x)

y = 10 + 5x

y = 5x + 10

Therefore, the correct option is B.

A $136,000.00 home with 30yr mortgage with 1.1% fixed rate. 20% down down payment. How much is the down payment, the monthly payments, interest rate and the loan?

Answers

Answer:

down payment = home value x 20% = $136,000 x 20% = $27,200

loan = home value - down payment = $136,000 - $27,200 = $108,800

interest rate = 1.1% fixed (given) ≈ 0.09167% per month

duration of loan = 30 years or 360 months

monthly payment = present value of loan / PV annuity factor

PV annuity factor, 360 periods, 0.09167% = 306.5134 (I used an online annuity calculator)

monthly payment = $108,800 / 306.5134 = $354.96

Answers

No, when you plug is -5 for x and -1 for why, it ends up being -9 not -11. (-5,-1) is not a solution.

Answer:(-5,-1) is not an ordered pair

Step-by-step explanation:

the ordered pair (-5,-1) is directly related to the variables (x,y) making -5=x and -1=y

so to figure out if the ordered pair is a solution you just plug in the number into their respective variable.

so the equation then becomes 2 (-5) - (-1) = -11

once you solve for the left part of the equation you are then left with -9 = -11 which we know is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is:

In Sean's sequence, a = 2, n = 250, and d = 2

In Julie's sequence, a = 1, n = 250, and d = 2

[tex]\frac{\frac{250}{2}(2(2)+(250-1)2)}{\frac{250}{2}(2(1)+(250-1)1)}\\= 2[/tex]

The Sean's sum divided by Julie's sum gives the 2.

What is arithmetic sequence?

An arithmetic sequence is sequence of integers with its adjacent terms differing with one common difference.

If the initial term of a sequence is 'a' and the common difference is of 'd', then we have the arithmetic sequence as:

a, a + d, a +  2d, ... , a + (n+1)d, ...

Its nth term is ; T_n = a + (n-1)d

(for all positive integer values of n)

And thus, the common difference is T_{n+1} - T_n for all positive integer values of n

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is;

[tex]= \dfrac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d ][/tex]

In Sean's sequence, a = 2, n = 250, and d = 2

[tex]= \dfrac{250}{2}[2(2) + (250-1)2 ]\\[/tex]

In Julie's sequence, a = 1, n = 250, and d = 2 then;

Answers

Answer:

The number of units of lumber that have been produced is 375

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

The average cost per unit c(x) to produce x units of lumber is given by

c(x) = 400/(x + 25).

Now, to determine how many units have been produced (that is, x) if the cost per unit is $1.00 (that is, c(x) = $1.00), we will put in the value into the given equation to determine x.

c(x) = 400/(x + 25)

c(x) = $1.00

∴ 1.00 = 400/(x + 25)

Then,

(x + 25) × 1.00 = 400

x + 25 = 400

x = 400 - 25

x = 375

Hence, the number of units of lumber that have been produced is 375.

Answers

Answer:

The length of PQ is 18 feet.

The length of PR is 18 feet.

The length of QR is 24 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A way to set an equation up for this problem is:

[tex]\frac{4}{3}x+x+x=60[/tex]

where x is the three lengths of the isosceles triangle, but the base QR is 4/3 the length of the other two congruent sides, length PQ and PR. The 60 represents the total length of the perimeter.

Then, solve for x from the equation, and you’ll get x=18. But your not done yet. Since the variable x in the equation stands for the sides of the isosceles triangle, so plug 18 into the equation and it should look like this:

[tex]\frac{4}{3}(18)+18+18=60[/tex]

Don’t solve the whole equation, just solve the [tex]\frac{4}{3}(18)[/tex] part of the equation, which is equal to 24. So the final equation is this:

[tex]24+18+18=60[/tex]

Conclusion: 24 is the length of QR, and 18 is the length of PQ and PR. And they all equal 60, which is the perimeter. This is very true because the length of PQ and PR are the same (length 18), since it’s an isosceles triangle, and the length of QR is 4/3 the length of PQ and PR (4/3 of 18= 24).
