1/125 or 0.008
fraction or decimal
Company A: 120 + 0.50x
Company B: 60 + 0.60x
Company A = Company B (solve for x)
(Here, x = miles)
120 + 0.50x = 60 + 0.60x
120 - 60 = 0.60x - 0.50x
60 = 0.10x
600 = x
Answer:
x ≈ 25.4 Km
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle on the right
tan54° =
=
( multiply both sides by 17 )
17 × tan54° = opp , thus
opp ≈ 23.4
-------------------------------------------
Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle on the left
cos23° =
=
( multiply both sides by x )
x × cos23° = 23.4 ( divide both sides by cos23° )
x =
≈ 25. 4 Km ( to the nearest tenth )
