Two cargo ships are sailing a direct course into harbor. Ship A is 22 miles from harbor. Ship Bis sailing into harbor on a cours
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Equations.

I have added a visual aid of the problem. As we can see the courses of both ship to the harbor forms a triangle with ship B being the hypotenuse. Since we are given the distance of the course for ship A and the angle between both ships, we can use this information with the <u>COSINE operator</u> to solve for the length of the course of ship B.

cos(x) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

cos(47) = \frac{22miles}{hypotenuse} .... flip both fractions.

\frac{1}{cos(47)} = \frac{hypotenuse}{22miles} .... multiply both sides by 22

\frac{22mi}{cos(47)} = hypotenuse

32.26mi = hypotenuse = B

So the distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Find the x- and y- intercepts of the equation 7x+ 14 y=28
7nadin3 [17]

Chapter : Linear equations

Lesson : Math for Junior High School

7x + 14y = 28

if want to find x and y, we must substitution value 0 to the equation x and y :

# If x = 0, then :

7x + 14y = 28

= 7(0) + 14y = 28

= 0 + 14y = 28

= 14y = 28 → y = 28/14

= y = 2

# If y = 0, then :

7x + 14y = 28

= 7x + 14(0) = 28

= 7x + 0 = 28

= 7x = 28 → x = 28 / 7

= x = 4

and that result was proven x = 4 and y = 2

Help!!<br> help on 33 please .
oksian1 [2.3K]
Description: They didn't distribute the 3 to both x and 5, so they just had 3x+5.
actual problem:
3(x+5)=3x+15
3x+15=3x+15
subtract 3x from both sides and end up with
15=15

Correct Answer: 15=15
