- Find the coordinates of ABC after a dilation of k = 3arrow_forwardv1 = (- 3.7) and v2 = (5.5) vectors Does it form a base for R^2? Why is that?arrow_forwardA ship S is travelling with a constant velocity, v, measured in kilometres per hour, where "=(-15³²). At time t=0 the ship is at a point A(300, 100) relative to an origin O, where distances are measured in kilometres. (a) Find the position vector OS of the ship at time / hours. A lighthouse is located at a point (129, 283). (b) Find the value off when the ship will be closest to the lighthouse. An alarm will sound if the ship travels within 20 kilometres of the lighthouse. (c) State whether the alarm will sound. Give a reason for your answer.arrow_forward

- A duck's flight is given by the following expression: y = x^2 + x + 4. X and y are coordinates of its flight. When x = 2, the duck takes a hit and thereafter its flight follows the trajectory of a tangent line. What is the coordinate when x=4.arrow_forwardfind the orthogonal trajectory of y^2=Cx^3-2arrow_forwardThe coordinates of the terminal point of the vector with its initial point at (-3, 2) is (a, b).
