If you sketch the path of the boat, you will form a right triangle towards the port. The distance from the port to the present position is the hypotenuse since it is opposite from the right angle formed by the 12 miles north and 5 miles east movement. Since it is a right triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the hypotenuse.
Solution:
h² = o² + a²
h² = 12² + 5²
h² = 144 + 25
h² = 169
√h² = √169
h= 13
The present distance of the boat from the port is 13 miles.
Don’t look up that link they put the same thing on another question
Answer:
i DONT KNOW
Step-by-step explanation:
So your equation to start with is 75H+15. first plug in 2 as h cause 2 is the hours: 75x2+15. Next, solve 75x2=150+15=165. Your answer is $165
