Answer:

37.59 nautical miles

Explanation:

Distance = Speed x Time

The speed of the first ship = 12 knots

Thus, the distance covered after 1.5 hours

\begin{gathered} =12\times1.5 \\ =18\text{ miles} \end{gathered}

The speed of the second ship = 22 knots

Thus, the distance covered after 1.5 hours

\begin{gathered} =22\times1.5 \\ =33\text{ miles} \end{gathered}

The diagram representing the ship's path is drawn and attached below:

The angle at port = 90 degrees.

The triangle is a right triangle.

Using Pythagorean Theorem:

\begin{gathered} c^2=a^2+b^2 \\ c^2=18^2+33^2 \\ c^2=324+1089 \\ c^2=1413 \\ c=\sqrt[]{1413} \\ c=37.59\text{ miles} \end{gathered}

The two ships are 37.59 nautical miles apart after 1.5 hours.

Identify the vertical asymptotes of f(x) = 2 over quantity x squared plus 3 x minus 10.
zysi [14]
The function is:
f ( x ) = 2 / ( x² + 3 x - 10 )
x² + 3 x - 10 = x² + 5 x - 2 x - 10 = x ( x + 5 ) - 2 ( x + 5 ) =
= ( x + 5 ) ( x - 2 )
x + 5 = 0 => x = - 5
x - 2 = 0 => x = 2
Answer:
The vertical asymptotes are: x = - 5 and x = 2.

In a parallelogram ABCD, angle a=70, find 2angle d​
Natali [406]

Answer:

D = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In a parallelogram ABCD,

∠A =70∘

∠A + ∠B = 180∘.. (supplementary angles)

∠B = 180∘ – 70∘ = 110∘

∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D.. (Opposite angles of parallelogram)

∠A = 70∘, ∠B = 110∘, ∠C = 70∘, ∠D = 110
