Answer: The distance between the two ships is 24.1 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance due to north = 20 km

Distance due to east = 13.5 km

We need to find the distance between the two ships:

Since it forms right angled triangle:

So, we will apply "Pythagorus theorem":

H^2=B^2+P^2\\\\H^2=20^2+13.5^2\\\\H^2=400+182.25\\\\H^2=582.25\\\\H=\sqrt{582.25}\\\\H=24.12\ km\\\\H=24.1\ km

Hence, the distance between the two ships is 24.1 km.

solve

simplify by dividing firs equation by 2 and 2nd by 4

a+7c=48
3a+2c=30

multiply first equaiton by -3 and add to second
-3a-21c=-144
<u>3a+2c=30 +</u>
0a-19c=-114

-19c=-114
divide both sides by -19
x=6

sub back

a+7c=48
6+7c=48
minus 6
7c=42
divide 7
c=6
