___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.

Komok [63]
Okay so you take the number of weekdays to the number of weekends the ratio is 5:2 one month, which usually has 30 days which is 4 weeks tops so that is about 21 week days and and 9 weekends then times both by 12 you get 108 weekends and 252 weekdays i know that only equals 360 but this is a rough estimate so write that as a fraction 3/7 so there is a third that it will be on a weekday

The cost of Nate's dinner including a 15% tip was $43.70. What was the cost of dinner alone?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The cost of dinner alone was $37.145

Step-by-step explanation:

15%=0.15----Convert your percentage into a decimal

43.70*0.15=6.555----Multiply the cost of dinner with the decimal

$43.70-$6.555=$37.145----Subtract the last number(6.555) from the total(43.70) to get the cost of dinner alone of $37.145 -This is making you subtract the percentage from the total!

I hope this helped!

Explain how to find simple interest
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Simple interest is calculated by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal, by the number of days that elapse between payments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal x rate x time = interest.

$100 x .05 x 1 = $5 simple interest for one year.

$100 x .05 x 3 = $15 simple interest for three years.
