Two boats, A and B, are approaching a port. The distance between the boats is 12 miles. The bearings of the port with respect to boat A and boat B are N 60° W and N 35° E respectively. How far is boat A from the port? A. 11.02 miles B. 9.87 miles C. 8.23 miles D. 4.54 miles

Answers

Answer 1

The distance from boat A to the port is approximately 5.196 miles.

Let's let point P represent the port.

Here A represent boat A and B represent boat B.

It is also given distance between A and B as 12 miles.

Next, we are finding the angles which boat A and boat B make with the line connecting them.

Let's call this line AB.

We can find these angles by subtracting the given bearings from 180 degrees.

For boat A, the angle it makes with AB is 180° - 60° = 120°

For boat B, the angle it makes with AB is 180° - 35° = 145°

Now we can use trigonometry to find the distance from boat A to the port. Let's call this distance x.

We can use the law of sines, which states

sin A / a = sin B / b = sin C / c

where A, B, and C are angles of a triangle and a, b, and c are the side lengths opposite those angles.

In our case, we can use the angle at boat A (which is 60 degrees) and the angle at the port (which is 120 degrees) along with the side opposite the angle at boat A (which is x) and the side opposite the angle at the port (which is 12-x), sin 60° / x = sin 120° / (12 - x)

We are Simplifying,

√3 / x = √3 / (12 - x)

Multiplying both sides by x(12-x),

12√3 - 3x√3 = x√3

Simplifying further,

12√3 = 4x√3

Dividing both sides by 4√3,

x = 3√3

Therefore, the distance from boat A to the port is approximately 5.196 miles.

The ending number is related to the starting number by n + 9.

To start with this magic number puzzle, let us take a positive number and a negative number. After that we have to perform some simple mathematical operations,

Taking positive number as 10 and negative number as -8.

Now, performing the mathematical operations as described in the next steps.

First starting with positive number which is 10.

Step-1. Add 10

So, 10+10 = 20

Step-2. Multiply by 2

So, 20×2 = 40

Step-3. Subtract 2,

So, 40 - 2 = 38

Step-4. Divide by 2,

So, 38/2= 19

Number chosen in the starting was 10 and at the end it became 19. The number 9 got added to 10.

Now, performing the steps on our negative number which is -8,

Step-1. Add 10

So, 10-8=2

Step-2. Multiply by 2

So, 2×2 = 4

Step-3. Subtract 2

So, 4-2 = 2

Step-4. Divide by 2

So, 2/2 = 1.

Number chosen in the starting was -8 and after performing the steps it became 1.

Now, for any number 'n',

Step-1. Adding 10

So, n+10

Step-2. Multiply by 2

So, 2(n-10) = 2n+20

Step-3. Subtract 2

So, 2n+20-2 = 2n+18

Step-4. Divide by 2.

So, (2n+18)/2 = n+9

The number taken in the starting was n and now it became n+9.

So the ending number becomes 9 times more in the end then the starting number.

Answer:

x =52

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles shown are same side interior angles, and when the lines are parallel, same side interior angles add to 180 degrees

< 1 + <2 = 180

x+23    + x+53   = 180

Combine like terms

2x+ 76 = 180

Subtract 76 from each side

2x+76-76 = 180 -76

2x = 104

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 104/2

x =52

Answer:

x = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 1 and angle 2 are on the same side, and on the inside of the interior. This means that when added together they = 180

We can set up an equation

x+23+x+53 = 180

Simplify: 2x + 76 = 180

Subtract 76 from both sides

2x = 104

Now divide by 2

x = 52

choose the equation that represents the line that passes through the point (6, −3) and has a slope of one half. (1 point)

Answers

The equation that represents the line that passes through the point (6, −3) and has a slope of one half is 2y - x = 13.

The equation of a line is represented as,

y = mx + c                                       equation1

x and y are the coordinates of the point from where the line is passing and m is the slope of the line.

As per the question the line is passing from the point (6, -3). This means value of x = 6 and that of y = -3. The slope of line is (1/2), means m = (1/2).

The slope of the line through the point (-1,6) can also be written as   (y - 6)/(x - (-1))  =  (y-6)/(x+1).

i.e., m = (y-6)/(x+1)

On equating both the values of m, we will get

(y-6)/(x+1) = 1/2

On simplifying, we get

2y - 12 = x +1

or  2y - x = 13

The equation that represents the line that passes through the point (6, −3) and has a slope of one half is 2y - x = 13.

Use the point slope form to write the equation of a line that passes through the point (1,-17) with slope 4

Answers

The equation of line passing through (1, -17) with slope 4 will be y = 4x - 21 .

What is the slope intercept form of a line ?

The equation of line that can be written as y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the line's y-intercept, is known as a slope intercept form.

The equation of a line which is passing through point (1 , -17) with slope m = 4 can be found by using the slope intercept form which is given by :

y = mx + c

Here ; m is the slope and c is the y - intercept of the line.

So ;

The point given is (x , y) = (1, -17) and slope m = 4. Let's use these values to find out the equation of the line. But before that let's find out the value of y-intercept (c).

-17 = (4 × 1) + c

c = - 17 - 4

c = -21

Hence , the equation of line passing through (1, -17) will be :

y = 4 ×  x + (-21)

or

y = 4x - 21

Therefore , the equation of line passing through (1, -17) with slope 4 will be y = 4x - 21 .

James, fay and sal share 160 apples. james got 1/4 of the apples. fay and sal shared the remainder in the ratio 3:2 respectively. 1) find how many oranges fay received 2) how many oranges did sal receive than james?

Answers

Using the ratio given in the question,

Apples received by Fay are 72.Apples received by James are 40.Apples received by Sal are 48.What is Ratio?

The relation between the quantities of two or more objects—referred to as a ratio—indicates how much of one object is contained in the other. The ratio formula can be used to represent a ratio as a fraction. The ratio formula is given as, for any two quantities, let's assume a and b.

a:b = a/b

Given that James, Fay and Sal share 160 apples.

Total number of apples =  160

Hence, apples received by James = 1/4(160)

= 40 apples

Remaining apples = 160 - 40 = 120 apples

It is also given that the remainder is shared by Fay and Sal in the ratio 3:2.

Hence, the total share will be 3+2=5

So, we can write that Fay's share will be 3/5 of total apples and Sal's share will be 2/5 of the total apples.

Fay's share = 3/5(120)

=3(24)

=72 apples

Sal's share = 2/5(120)

=2(24)

=48 apples

Therefore, the number of apples with Fay is 72.

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that Kurt spent $22.68 a month on movie streaming services.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and equations can be built to find the desired measures in the problem using a rule of three, or operations such as multiplication and division.

These operations are used from the unit rates, as for example, when we have an amount over a period of time, the amount per unit of time is the total amount divided by the total time.

For this problem, we have that the important parameters are found as follows:

The total amount is of $96.39.The time is a mixed number, 4 and 1/4 months, hence it is of 4.25 months, as 4 + 1/4 = 4 + 0.25 = 4.25.
