Answer 1

The magnitude of B-3A is 105.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the magnitude of B-3A, we first need to find the individual magnitudes of B and A. Using the given information, we have B = 26.5 and A = 44.0. To calculate B-3A, we subtract three times the magnitude of A from B: |B-3A| = |26.5 - 3(44.0)| = |26.5 - 132.0| = |-105.5| = 105.5 (rounded to three significant figures).
