First, we are going to find the distance traveled by the ship adding the tow distances:
Distance traveled= 24 mi +33 mi=57 mi

Next, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from a to c:
d^2=24^2+33^2
d^2=576+1089
d^2=1665
d= \sqrt{1665}
d=40.8 mi

Finally, we are going to subtract the two distances:
57 mi -40.8 mi= 16.2 mi

We can conclude that <span>if the ship could have traveled in a straight lime from point a to point c, it could have saved 16.2 miles.</span>

How many solutions can be found for the set of linear equations? Y = 7(x + 2) and y = 7x + 14
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

infinite solution

Step-by-step explanation:

because  Y = 7(x + 2) and y = 7x + 14 are the same

y = 7(x+2) = 7x + 14

eliminate to see

y = 7x + 14

-(y = 7x +14)

= 0 = 0 + 0

so it is infinite solution

The cost of staying in a hotel is given by the formula C=50d+20, where C is the cost in £ and d is the number of days a person s
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

a) £320

b) £720

c) 2 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is all about inputting values and finding a result or rearranging and finding a result.

a) d = 6. C = 50(6)+20      = 320

b) d = 2x7 (7 days a week)  C = 50(2x7) + 20     = 720

c) C = 120 ... 120 = 50d+20

100 =50d      d = 100/50      = 2

What is list factors of 36​
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

36 ÷ 1 = 36

36 ÷ 2 = 18

36 ÷ 3 = 12

36 ÷ 4 = 9

36 ÷ 6 = 6

36 ÷ 9 = 4

36 ÷ 12 = 3

36 ÷ 18 = 2

36 ÷ 36 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The Postive Factors of 36 are therefore all the numbers we used to divide (divisors) above to get an even number. Here is the list of all Postive Factors of 36 in numerical order:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36.

Factors of 36 include negative numbers. Therefore, all the Positive Factors of 36 can be converted to negative numbers. The list of Negative Factors of 36 are:

-1, -2, -3, -4, -6, -9, -12, -18, and -36.

How many Factors of 36?

When we counted the Factors of 36 that we listed above, we found that 36 has 9 Positive Factors and 9 Negative Factors. Thus, the total number of Factors of 36 is 18.

Factor Pairs of 36

Factor Pairs of 36 are combinations of two factors that when multiplied together equal 36. Here are all the Positive Factor Pairs of 36

1 × 36 = 36

2 × 18 = 36

3 × 12 = 36

4 × 9 = 36

6 × 6 = 36

9 × 4 = 36

12 × 3 = 36

18 × 2 = 36

36 × 1 = 36

Like we said above, Factors of 36 include negative numbers. Minus times minus equals plus, thus you can convert the Positive Factor Pair list above by simply putting a minus in front of every factor to get all the Negative Factor Pairs of 36:

-1 × -36 = 36

-2 × -18 = 36

-3 × -12 = 36

-4 × -9 = 36

-6 × -6 = 36

-9 × -4 = 36

-12 × -3 = 36

-18 × -2 = 36

-36 × -1 = 36

Do you need the factors for a particular number? You can submit a number below to find the factors for that number with detailed explanations like we did with Factors of 36 above.

HELP WILL GIVE 15 POINTS <br>what is the range of this function and pls explain​
Nataly [62]

Answer:

f(x)\geq -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Range corresponds to the values of y on the y-axis. If we see the graph the minimum value of the y-coordinate is -2 and then it tends to increase from it. We do not know till where the y values will increase in the figure it shows 6 but it's still actually increasing we keep on tracing the graph but the minimum value will always remain the same which is -2 . So we can say that the range of the function is

f(x)\geq -2\\

Where f(x) is the function and since the values of y on the y-axis increase from -2 we can say that the function has the range of values greater than or equal to -2
