Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since S is the midpoint of RT, then RS = ST

RS = RT - ST = (3x + 7) - (x + 7) = 3x + 7 - x - 7 = 2x

so we get that RS = 2x

but since RS = ST, and RS=2x & ST=x+7

then 2x = x + 7

2x-x = 7

x = 7

ST = x+7 = 7+7 = 14

P.S. Hope it makes sense. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments senction. I'll be happy to help. Have a wonderful day!

For questions 3 – 5, an airplane is heading south at an airspeed of 540 km/hr, but there is a wind blowing from the northeast at

GuDViN [60]

First, let's calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the wind speed (W) and the airplane speed (A), knowing that south is a bearing of 270° and northeast is a bearing of 45°:

$\begin{gathered} W_x=W\cos45°\\ \\ W_x=50\cdot0.707\\ \\ W_x=35.35\\ \\ \\ \\ W_y=W\sin45°\\ \\ W_y=50\cdot0.707\\ \\ W_y=35.35 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} A_x=A\cos270°\\ \\ A_x=540\cdot0\\ \\ A_x=0\\ \\ \\ \\ A_y=A\sin270°\\ \\ A_y=540\cdot(-1)\\ \\ A_y=-540 \end{gathered}$

Now, let's add the components of the same direction:

$\begin{gathered} V_x=W_x+A_x=35.35+0=35.35\\ \\ V_y=W_y+A_y=35.35-540=-504.65 \end{gathered}$

To find the resultant bearing (theta), we can use the formula below:

$\begin{gathered} \theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{V_y}{V_x})\\ \\ \theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{-504.65}{35.35})\\ \\ \theta=-86° \end{gathered}$

The angle -86° is equivalent to -86 + 360 = 274°.

Therefore the correct option is b.

I need help with a scatter plot

xeze [42]

Answer:

Scatter plots are like graphs in which you plot points. The rate can vary. They are mainly used to compare temperatures, or weather. Also other types of data like population.
