If x>4, then the quantity x-3 inside the absolute value symbol is already positive. So, in this case, |x-3| => x-3, and x-3 is all you need to write.
Answer:
(a)123 km/hr
(b)39 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Plane X with an average speed of 50km/hr travels for 2 hours from P (Kano Airport) to point Q in the diagram.
Distance = Speed X Time
Therefore: PQ =50km/hr X 2 hr =100 km
It moves from Point Q at 9.00 am and arrives at the airstrip A by 11.30am.
Distance, QA=50km/hr X 2.5 hr =125 km
Using alternate angles in the diagram:

(a)First, we calculate the distance traveled, PA by plane Y.
Using Cosine rule

SInce aeroplane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and arrives at 11.30am
Time taken =1.5 hour
Therefore:
Average Speed of Y

(b)Flight Direction of Y
Using Law of Sines
![\dfrac{p}{\sin P} =\dfrac{q}{\sin Q}\\\dfrac{125}{\sin P} =\dfrac{184.87}{\sin 110}\\123 \times \sin P=125 \times \sin 110\\\sin P=(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87\\P=\arcsin [(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87]\\P=39^\circ $ (to the nearest degree)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bp%7D%7B%5Csin%20P%7D%20%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bq%7D%7B%5Csin%20Q%7D%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7B125%7D%7B%5Csin%20P%7D%20%3D%5Cdfrac%7B184.87%7D%7B%5Csin%20110%7D%5C%5C123%20%5Ctimes%20%5Csin%20P%3D125%20%5Ctimes%20%5Csin%20110%5C%5C%5Csin%20P%3D%28125%20%5Ctimes%20%5Csin%20110%29%20%5Cdiv%20184.87%5C%5CP%3D%5Carcsin%20%5B%28125%20%5Ctimes%20%5Csin%20110%29%20%5Cdiv%20184.87%5D%5C%5CP%3D39%5E%5Ccirc%20%24%20%28to%20the%20nearest%20degree%29)
The direction of flight Y to the nearest degree is 39 degrees.
Answer:
+5 is greater that -5 and is also a opposite integer.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula is a^2+b^2=c^2
18^2+24^2=c^2
900=c^2
c=30
9514 1404 393
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum number required is the least common multiple (LCM) of 15 and 4. The numbers 15 and 4 have no common factors, so their LCM is their product.
15×4 = 60 strands are required
