Observers in two lighthouses K and L spot a ship S.

Mathematics
1 answer:
BaLLatris [955]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

KL = 12km                  s° = 59°

SL = 9.72km              l°  = 77°

SK = 13.6km               k° = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

When you know two angles you can find the third.

1.

The angles always add to 180°:

A + B + C = 180°

so,

k ° +  s ° + l° = 180°

44 + 77 + s = 180

121 + s = 180

s = 180 - 121

s = 59°

2.

Law of Sines (the Sine Rule):

 a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

KS / sin(L) = KL / sin(S)

x / sin(77) = 12 / sin(59)

x = 12 sin(77) / sin(59)

x = 13.6km

similarly,

SL / sin(k) = KL / sin(S)

y / sin(44) = 12 / sin(59)

y = 9.72km

The value of a dirt bike decreases by 15% each year. If you purchased this dirt bike today for $500, to the nearest dollar how m
ANTONII [103]

Right now the dirt bike is worth $500. Next year it will be worth 15% less, or 85% of the current value (because currently it's at 100%, so you would subtract the 15%). To find 85% of the dirt bike's value, you would take $500 and multiply by 85% (or 0.85). This would give you $425 after 1 year. You'd take $425 and multiply that by 85% for the next year, and continue until you reached 5 years of the value decreasing. Does this help?

A number decreased by 4 equals -12. What is the number? _____
elena55 [62]

x - 4 = -12

I think x = -8 as if you decrease -8 by 4 it will leave us with the answer of -12

x = -8

Hope this helped,
