Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
if you distribute the 9 into the parenthesis you get 9y + 45. Therefore, both equations are equivalent seeing that they both equal to 9y + 45.
Check the picture below.

now, notice, for the angle hAC, the hypotenuse is hA, and the adjacent side is CA, therefore,
![\bf cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\qquad cos(hAC)=\cfrac{5}{hA}\implies hA=\cfrac{5}{cos(hAC)} \\\\\\ hA=\cfrac{5}{cos\left[ \frac{cos^{-1}\left( \frac{5}{13} \right)}{2} \right]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20cos%28%5Ctheta%29%3D%5Ccfrac%7Badjacent%7D%7Bhypotenuse%7D%5Cqquad%20cos%28hAC%29%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7BhA%7D%5Cimplies%20hA%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7Bcos%28hAC%29%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0AhA%3D%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7Bcos%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cfrac%7Bcos%5E%7B-1%7D%5Cleft%28%20%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B13%7D%20%5Cright%29%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%5D%7D)
make sure your calculator is in Degree mode, if you need the angle in degrees.
Answer:
7.4999999988
Step-by-step explanation:
5/24=0.2083333333
5 is 20.8% of 24
36*0.2083333333=7.4999999988
16 miles I believe because if you take the total distance and multiply that by 2/5 you get 16 hope this helps.
