Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 5 = x - 3
Subtract x from each side
3x+5-x = x-3-x
2x+5 = -3
Subtract 5 from each side
2x+5-5 = -3-5
2x = -8
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = -8/2
x = -4

Answer:
193.53 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the diagram for understanding of how the angles were derived,
Applying Alternate Angles, ABO =77 degrees
The bearing from B to C is 192=180+12 degrees
Subtracting 12 from 77, we obtain the angle at B as 65 degrees.
We want to determine the boat's distance from its starting point.
In the diagram, this is the line AC.
Applying Law of Cosines:

The distance of the boat from its starting point is 193.53 miles (correct to 2 decimal places).
A * 4 = E........A = E / 4
B / 4 = E........B = 4E
C + 4 = E......C = E - 4
D - 4 = E.......D = E + 4
A + B + C + D = 100
(E/4) + (4E) + (E - 4) + (E + 4) = 100
E/4 + 6E = 100 ....multiply by 4
E + 24E = 400
25E = 400
E = 400/25
E = 16 <===
