0.035x+0.045x=427.50
0.08x=427.50
x=427.50/0.08
x=5343.75



x+x+1500=5343.75
2x=5343.75-1500
2x=3843.75
x=1921.88 first
1921.88+1500=3421.88 second

What is a sextant and how is it used?
Elan Coil [88]
A sextant<span> is a </span>doubly reflecting navigation instrument<span> that measures the </span>angular distance<span> between two visible objects. The primary use of a sextant is to measure the angle between an </span>astronomical object<span> and the </span>horizon<span> for the purposes of </span>celestial navigation<span>.

The estimation of this angle, the altitude, is known as </span>sighting<span> or </span>shooting<span> the object, or </span>taking a sight<span>. The angle and the time when it was measured, can be used to calculate a </span>position line<span> on a nautical or aeronautical </span>chart. F<span>or example; sighting the </span>Sun<span> at </span>noon <span>or </span>Polaris<span> at night (in the Northern Hemisphere) to estimate </span>latitude<span>. Sighting the height of a landmark can give a measure of </span>distance off<span> and held horizontally.

A sextant can measure angles between objects for a </span>position on a chart.<span> A sextant can also be used to measure the </span>lunar distance<span> between the moon and another celestial object (such as a star or planet) in order to determine </span>Greenwich Mean Time<span> and hence </span>longitude<span>. 

Hope this helps!

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

9 more shots

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first golfer had a score of +6 and the second golfer had a score of -3, in order to know how many more shots the first golfer take, we will take the difference between both goals as shown;

= 6-(-3)

= 6+3

= 9

Hence the first golfer took 9 more shots than the second.
