A plane leaves airport A and travels 570 miles to airport B on a bearing of Upper N 32 degrees Upper E. The plane later leaves a
irport B and travels to airport C 390 miles away on a bearing of Upper S 73 degrees Upper E. Find the distance from airport A to airport C to the nearest tenth of a mile.
1 answer:
Answer:
769.46 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Please have a look at the photo attached in this answer
The missing part of the angle is 32 degrees, so the total angle of B is:
32 + 73 = 105 degrees.
Let x is the distance from airport A to airport C to the nearest tenth of a mile, we use cosine law to find x:
=
- 2(570)(390)cos(105)
<=> = 592070
<=> x = = 769.46 miles

so hmm the idea behind the elimination, is to make the value atop or below, of either variable, the same but with a negative sign
so hmmm say... we'll eliminate "y"
so... let's see, we have 2y and 5y, both positive
what do we multiply 2y to get a negative -5y, that way, -5y +5y = 0 and poof it goes
well let's see, let's try "k"
so.. if we multiply 2y by -5/2, we'll end up with -5y
well, let's multiply that first equation then by -5/2
so.. now we know x = 1.... so let's plug that in say hmmm 2nd equation
The volume of ball is 113.04 cubic centimeter
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that we have to find the volume of tennis ball
Since the ball is of sphere shape, we can use the sphere formula
<em><u>The volume of sphere is given by formula:</u></em>
Where, "V" is the volume and "r" is the radius
Given that,
Diameter = 6 cm
Therefore,
<em><u>Substituting in formula, we get</u></em>
Thus volume of ball is 113.04 cubic centimeter
