The truck can cover 145 miles in 2.5 hours, so the speed of the truck is 
145÷2.5=58 miles per hour
the car's speed is 1.5 times faster: 58×1.5=87 miles per hour
suppose in x hours they will meet:
distance covered by truck in x hour: 58x
distance covered by car in x hour: 87x
total distance: 145 miles
58x+87x=145
x=1

Answer:

$130.34

Step-by-step explanation:

In this example, the total amount Myra has to pay is (original cost) + (total interest). This is because she has to pay interest because she bought clothes. Her total cost for the clothes is then 124.96+5.38=130.34

Use trigonometric ratios to find the indicated side
iragen [17]

Answer:

a = 139.1

b = 56.2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Reference angle = 68°

Opp = a

Hyp = 150

Therefore:

Sin 68 = opp/hyp

Sin 68 = a/150

150*sin 68 = a

a = 139.1 (nearest tenth)

B. Reference angle = 68°

Adj = b

Hyp = 150

Therefore:

Cos 68 = adj/hyp

Cos 68 = b/150

150*cos 68 = b

b = 56.2 (nearest tenth)
