Find the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector. (Give the direction angles correct to the nearest degree.) 5, 1, 4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The direction cosines are:

[tex]\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex], [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]  and  [tex]\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]  with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

The direction angles are:

40°,  81° and  52° with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given vector a = ai + aj + ak, its direction cosines are the cosines of the angles which it makes with the x, y and z axes.

If a makes angles α, β, and γ (which are the direction angles) with the x, y and z axes respectively, then its direction cosines are: cos α, cos β and cos γ in the x, y and z axes respectively.

Where;

cos α = [tex]\frac{a . i}{|a| . |i|}[/tex]               ---------------------(i)

cos β = [tex]\frac{a.j}{|a||j|}[/tex]               ---------------------(ii)

cos γ = [tex]\frac{a.k}{|a|.|k|}[/tex]             ----------------------(iii)

And from these we can get the direction angles as follows;

α =  cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{a . i}{|a| . |i|}[/tex] )

β = cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{a.j}{|a||j|}[/tex] )

γ = cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{a.k}{|a|.|k|}[/tex] )

Now to the question:

Let the given vector be

a = 5i + j + 4k

a . i =  (5i + j + 4k) . (i)

a . i = 5         [a.i is just the x component of the vector]

a . j = 1            [the y component of the vector]

a . k = 4          [the z component of the vector]

Also

|a|. |i| = |a|. |j| = |a|. |k| = |a|           [since |i| = |j| = |k| = 1]

|a| = [tex]\sqrt{5^2 + 1^2 + 4^2}[/tex]

|a| = [tex]\sqrt{25 + 1 + 16}[/tex]

|a| = [tex]\sqrt{42}[/tex]

Now substitute these values into equations (i) - (iii) to get the direction cosines. i.e

cos α = [tex]\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]

cos β =  [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]              

cos γ =  [tex]\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]

From the value, now find the direction angles as follows;

α =  cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{a . i}{|a| . |i|}[/tex] )

α =  cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex] )

α =  cos⁻¹ ([tex]\frac{5}{6.481}[/tex] )

α =  cos⁻¹ (0.7715)

α = 39.51

α = 40°

β = cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{a.j}{|a||j|}[/tex] )

β = cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex] )

β = cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{1}{6.481 }[/tex] )

β = cos⁻¹ ( 0.1543 )

β = 81.12

β = 81°

γ = cos⁻¹ ( [tex]\frac{a.k}{|a|.|k|}[/tex] )

γ = cos⁻¹ ([tex]\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex])

γ = cos⁻¹ ([tex]\frac{4}{6.481}[/tex])

γ = cos⁻¹ (0.6172)

γ = 51.89

γ = 52°

Conclusion:

The direction cosines are:

[tex]\frac{5}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex], [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]  and  [tex]\frac{4}{\sqrt{42} }[/tex]  with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

The direction angles are:

40°,  81° and  52° with respect to the x, y and z axes respectively.

answer above

A supermarket has 148 shrubs on their property, but they are having trouble mowing grass so they need to pay to have cut down shrubs each year until the property has less than 30 shrubs. If they can pay to have only three shrubs cut down this year, but six shrubs cut down every year after that, in how many years will they have less than 30 shrubs on their property?

Answers

Answer: 21 years

Step-by-step explanation: After the first year, it’s down by 3 so 145. For the next 20 years, you go down 6 shrubs a year. At year 20 it will be 31 shrubs so at year 21 it will be at 25 shrubs.

Answer:

21 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

All equations are written in bold so you can find them easier.

The first thing we do is subtract the 3 shrubs from the first year from the total 148.

148 - 3 = 145

We then take 29 from 145, as the supermarket wants less than 30 shrubs on their property, so the maximum amount they want to keep is actually 29.

145 - 29 = 116

The supermarket can pay to have 6 shrubs cut down every year, excluding the first, so we need to do then is divide 116 by 6.

116 ÷ 6 = 19.333.

Because that equation leaves us with a decimal, we have to round up to get a whole number because the answer has to be in years, not years and months.

19.333 rounded up is 20.

So that's 20 years of paying for 6/per year. We have to add on the one year they only payed for 3 shrubs to be cut down, making the answer;

21 years.

We can further confirm we have the right answer by doing;

6 × 20 = 120

145 - 120 = 25

Because we're going down in 6's, we know that 20 is the lowest amount of years it would take to get less than 30 shrubs, because 25 + 6 = 31.

solve for h

can someone please answer and explain thank you <33

Answers

Answer: [tex]h=\frac{2A}{(a+b)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for h, we want to get h alone. We need to use our algebraic properties.

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} h(a+b)[/tex]                             [multiply both sides by 2]

[tex]2A=h(a+b)[/tex]                              [divide both sides by (a+b)]

[tex]h=\frac{2A}{(a+b)}[/tex]

Now that we have h alone, we know that [tex]h=\frac{2A}{(a+b)}[/tex].

If the perimeter of the
rectangle is 36 inches,
what is the value of x?
X-3
7x+5

Answers

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we simply need to use the know values for the lengths, widths, and perimeter of the rectangle.

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is as follows:

P = 2L + 2W

Where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width.

Let L = 7x + 5 and W = x - 3

Now, we will simply plug our values into the formula and solve for x.

P = 2L + 2W

36 = 2 ( 7x + 5 ) + 2 ( x - 3 )

36 = 14x + 10 + 2x + -6

36 = 16x + 4

32 = 16x

2 = x

Thus, we have found the value of x to be 2.

What details can you determine about the dive from the coordinates of the point (5, −8)?

Answers

Answer:

(See explanation below for further details)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. What details can you determine about the dive from the coordinates of the point (5, -8)?

First component corresponds to time and second component to depth with respect to sea level. The diver is 8 feet below sea level at 5 seconds.

B. What is the average speed of the diver in the water? How can you tell from the graph?

The average speed of the diver ([tex]\bar v[/tex]), measured in feet per second, can be calculated by the following expression:

[tex]\bar v = \frac{x_{f}-x_{o}}{t_{f}-t_{o}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x_{o}[/tex], [tex]x_{f}[/tex] - Initial and final depth of diver, measured in feet.

[tex]t_{o}[/tex], [tex]t_{f}[/tex] - Initial and final instant, measured in seconds.

There are three different average speeds: (i) Descent ([tex]t = 1\,s[/tex] to [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex]), (ii) Ascent ([tex]t = 5\,s[/tex] to [tex]t = 9\,s[/tex]), (iii) Descent + Ascent ([tex]t = 1\,s[/tex] to [tex]t = 9\,s[/tex])

(i) Descent ([tex]t = 1\,s[/tex] to [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex])

[tex]x_{o} = 0\,ft[/tex] and [tex]x_{f} = -8\,ft[/tex]

[tex]\bar v_{i} = \frac{-8\,ft-0\,ft}{5\,s-1\,s}[/tex]

[tex]\bar v_{i} = -2\,\frac{ft}{s}[/tex]

(ii) Ascent ([tex]t = 5\,s[/tex] to [tex]t = 9\,s[/tex])

[tex]x_{o} = -8\,ft[/tex] and [tex]x_{f} = 0\,ft[/tex]

[tex]\bar v_{ii} = \frac{0\,ft-(-8\,ft)}{9\,s-5\,s}[/tex]

[tex]\bar v_{ii} = 2\,\frac{ft}{s}[/tex]

(iii) Descent + Ascent ([tex]t = 1\,s[/tex] to [tex]t = 9\,s[/tex])

[tex]x_{o} = 0\,ft[/tex] and [tex]x_{f} = 0\,ft[/tex]

[tex]\bar v_{iii} = \frac{0\,ft-0\,ft}{9\,s-1\,s}[/tex]

[tex]\bar v_{iii} = 0\,\frac{ft}{s}[/tex]

C. Which point on the graph shows the starting location of the diver?

The initial location is when [tex]t = 0\,s[/tex], which corresponds to the intercept of the line on y-axis.

A random sample of 100 cars was taken and data were recorded on the miles per gallon (mpg) in the city and on the highway. The mean city mpg was 28 with a standard deviation of 9.2. The mean highway mpg was 35 with a standard deviation of 8.6. The correlation coefficient between city mpg and highway mpg is 0.95. Although a scatterplot is not show, it has been determined that a linear equation is appropriate for the data. Determine the correct value of the slope for the linear model that predicts highway mpg based on city mpg and interpret it in context.

Answers

Answer:

0.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Nunber of samples = 100

City mpg :

Mean = 28

Standard deviation =9.2

Highway mpg:

Mean = 35

Standard deviation = 8.6

correlation Coefficient (r) between city mpg and highway mpg = 0.95.

The value of the slope of the regression line that predicts highway mpg based on city mpg can be obtained by:

(Standard deviation of highway mgp / standard deviation of city mpg) × correlation Coefficient

Slope = (8.6 / 9.2) × 0.95

Slope = (0.934782 × 0.95) = 0.8880

Slope = 0.89 ( two decimal place)
