___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.

Kellen bought new fish for her home aquarium. She bought 4 turquoise guppies and 3 sunburst tetra GLO fish and spent a total of
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: A single turquoise guppy costs $3.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use "x" to represent the amount a single turquoise is sold and use "y" to represent that of the Glo fish.

Since Kellen bought 4 guppies and 3 glo fishes for $41.73:

4x + 3y = 41.73 --------eqn 1

Similarly, Danielle purchased 3 guppies and 5 Glo fish for $56.02:

Therefore 3x + 5y = $56.02 -----eqn2

The 2 equations are;

4x + 3y = 41.73 (eqn 1)

3x + 5y = 56.02 (eqn 2)

We then solve the simultaneous equations using substitution method:

From eqn 1,

4x + 3y = 41.73

4x = 41.73 - 3y

x = (41.73 - 3y)/4

Substitute x for (41.73 - 3y)/4 in eqn2.

3[(41.73 - 3y)/4 + 5y = 56.02

11y + 125.19 = 224.08

11y =98.89

y = 98.89/11

y = $8.99

So, 1 Glo fish costs $8.99

Then, substitute "y" for 8.99 in equation 1

4x + (3×8.99) = 41.73

4x + 26.97 = 41.73

4x = 41.73 - 26.97

4x = 14.76

x = 14.76/4

x = $3.69

Therefore 1 turquoise guppy costs $3.69
