___x____
\             |
  \           |
     \        |   y
 18  \      |
         \    |
           \ *|---2.2 °

This is a vector problem. The distance of drift is in x (horizontal axis). 
remember that Sin Ф=opposite/hypotenuse. x represents the opposite side form the angle, and 18 is the hypotenuse.
Sin 2.2°=x/18
18 sin 2.2°=x
.691 ≈x

The ship drifts off course .691 miles every hour. .691 x 5 = 5.69 miles after 5 hours.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

208 ⅓ ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1⅞ = 15/8 inches ÷ 12

= 5/32 feet on map

Actual = 5/32 × 80

= 25/2 feet

2½ = 5/2 inches ÷ 12

= 5/24 feet on map

Actual = 5/24 × 80 = 50/3

Actual area:

25/2 × 50/3

= 625/3 ft²

= 208 ⅓ ft²

Write 4x2(–2x2 + 5x3) in standard form. Then classify it by degree and number of terms.
umka2103 [35]
20x^5-8x^4 polynomial of the 5th degree, with two terms.

Distribute 4x^2(–2x^2 + 5x^3) to get –8x^2 + 20x^5. Reorder in standard form 20x^5-8x^4.  5 is the highest exponent so it is the 5th degree, there are two terms because terms are separated by a plus or minus.
