Answer:


\mid \vec C\mid=31.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the vectors:


\vec A=9.4\mathbf{\hat{i}}-3.6\mathbf{\hat{j}}


\vec B=-9.5\mathbf{\hat{i}}-13.4\mathbf{\hat{j}}

Calculate the magnitude of


\vec C=-2\vec B-\vec A

Substitute the values of the vectors:


\vec C=-2(-9.5\mathbf{\hat{i}}-13.4\mathbf{\hat{j}})-(9.4\mathbf{\hat{i}}-3.6\mathbf{\hat{j}})

Operate and remove parentheses:


\vec C=19\mathbf{\hat{i}}+26.8\mathbf{\hat{j}}-9.4\mathbf{\hat{i}}+3.6\mathbf {\hat{j}}

Operating both components separately:


\vec C=9.6\mathbf{\hat{i}}+30.4\mathbf{\hat{j}}

Now find the magnitude of C:


\mid \vec C\mid=√(9.6^2+30.4^2)


\mid \vec C\mid=√(1016.32)


\mathbf{\mid \vec C\mid=31.9}
