To ease your problem, consider "L" as you x-axis
Then the coordinate become:
A(- 4 , 3) and B(1 , 2) [you notice that just the y's changed]
This is a reflection problem.
Reflect point B across the river line "L" to get B', symmetric of B about L.
The coordinates of B'(1 , -1) [remember L is our new x-axis]
JOIN A to B' . AB' intersect L, say in H
We have to find the shortest way such that AH + HB = shortest.
But HB = HB' (symmetry about L) , then I can write instead of
AH + HB →→ AH + HB'. This is the shortest since the shortest distance between 2 points is the straight line and H is the point requiered
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 0.30x = 78
1.30x = 78
x = 60
Let us assume that the time taken by the category 3 hurricane to travel from Cuba to Key West = X minutes
Speed of the category 3 hurricane is given as 20.88 km/hr
So the category 3 hurricane can travel 20.88 km in 1 hour.
The distance between Cuba and Key West = 145 km
Then
20.88 km is travelled by the category 3 hurricane in = 60 minutes
145 km from Cuba to Key west is travelled by the category 3 hurricane in = X minutes
So,
X = [(145 * 60)/20.88] minutes
= 416.66 minutes
= 17 hours and 36 minutes
Time taken by the category 3 hurricane to reach Key West from Cuba is 17 hours and 36 minutes.
