A is the correct answer !
Answer:
1200
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
Applying the law of cosines:
c² = a² + b² - 2abcos(C)
where:
a,b and c are sides of the triangle and C is the angle opposite side c
let
a=170 mi
b=200 mi
c=160 mi
that is
160² = 170² + 200² - 2(170)(200)cos(C)
solve for C
25,600 = 28,900 + 40,000 - 68,000cos(C)
25,600 - 28,900 - 40,000 = -68,000cos(C)
-43,300=-68,000cos (C)
cos (C)=0.6367
C=arc cos(0.6367)--------> C=50.45°
hence,
he should turn in the direction of island b by
180 - 50.45 = 129.55 degrees
the answer is
129.55 degrees
T= # of rental hours
Reservation Fee= $31
Per Hour Fee= $7.40
Multiply number of hours rented by the cost per hour, add that total to the reservation fee. The total needs to be less than $97.60.
Res Fee + ($ per hr * # hrs) < $97.60
$31 + $7.40t < $97.60
subtract 31 from both sides
7.40t < 66.60
divide both sides by 7.40
t < 9
ANSWER: To spend less than $97.60, they need to rent the room less than 9 hours.
Hope this helps! :)
