Fifteen pirates steal a stack of identical gold coins. when they try to divide them evenly, two coins are left over. a fight erupts and one of the pirates is killed. the remaining pirates try again to evenly distribute the coins. this time there is one coin left over. a second pirate is killed in the resulting argument. now when the remaining pirates try to divide the coins evenly there are no coins left over. use the chinese remainder theorem to find the smallest number of coins that could have been in the sack.

The input to the function is x and the output is y. write the function such that x can be a vector (use element-by-element operations). a) use the function to calculate y(-1.5) and y(5). b) use the function to make a plot of the function y(x) for -2 ≤ x ≤ 6.

I've been working on this for a few days and i just don't understand, it's due in a few hours. you. the direction of a vector is defined as the angle of the vector in relation to a horizontal line. as a standard, this angle is measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis. the direction or angle of v in the diagram is α.part a: how can you use trigonometric ratios to calculate the direction α of a general vector v = < x, y> similar to the diagram? part bsuppose that vector v lies in quadrant ii, quadrant iii, or quadrant iv. how can you use trigonometric ratios to calculate the direction (i. e., angle) of the vector in each of these quadrants with respect to the positive x-axis? the angle between the vector and the positive x-axis will be greater than 90 degrees in each case. part cnow try a numerical problem. what is the direction of the vector w = < -1, 6 > ?
