Define unit vectors along the x-axis and the y-axis as \hat{i} , \, \hat{j} respectively.

Then the vector from P to Q is
\vec{PQ} = (-13+5)\hat{i} + (10-5)\hat{j} = -8\hat{i} + 5\hat{j}
In component form, the vector PQ is (-8,5).

The magnitude of vector PQ is
√[(-8)² + 5²] = √(89) = 9.434

Answer:
The vector PQ is (-8, 5) and its magnitude is √89  (or 9.434).

Answer:

<-16, 10>, square root of 178

Step-by-step explanation:

The other user was close, BUT he forgot to multiply his work by 2, and there were a few miscalculations.

The formula to find PQ respectively is <q1-p1,q2-p2> (Note: if they ask you to find QP then just flip the formula to <p1-q1,p2-q2>)

-13-(-5)=-8

10-5=5

Multiply them by 2 to get <-16,10>

To get the magnitude you use the same formula for the first part before, then you square both of them and add them together, then take the square root.

-13-(-5)=-8

-8^2=64

10-5=5

5^2=25

64+25=89

89*2=178

Take the square root: (square root of 178)

Then your done!

Archie can walk 1 mile in 1/3 hour. How far can walk in 3 hours explain how you found the answer​
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that he can walk one mile in 1/3 of an hour. We can divide 3 by 1/3.

3/(1/3) When dividing by a fraction, we multiply its reciprocal instead.

3*3=9. This means that he can walk 9 miles in 3 hours.

Gnom [1K]

Answer: We are 95% confident that the mean income for all residents of this city is between $26700 and $35400.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a 95% confidence interval given an interval of values that we can be 95% sure , that it contains the true mean of the population, not 95% of data lies in it.

Given : A researcher is estimating the mean income of residents in a large city. The income variable is usually skewed to the right. She collects a random sample of 25 people.

The resulting 95% confidence interval is ($26700, $35400).

Then, valid conclusion will be :  We are 95% confident that the mean income for all residents of this city is between $26700 and $35400.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Green ball. $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see.

15 balls. 7 are red. 6 are green. rest are yellow. That means there are 2 yellow balls.

Since there are more greens than yellows, you have a better chance of getting a green. That means you have a higher chance of getting $11

A label that wraps around a box of golf balls covers 75% of its lateral surface area. What is the value of x? The height is 2 th
GalinKa [24]

To find the area of the rectangular prism, use the formula:

A = width x height x length

A = 2 x 2 x 3

A = 12

Now multiply A with 0.75

12 x 0.75 = 9

x = 9 in³

hope this helps
