recalling that d = rt, distance = rate * time.
we know Hector is going at 12 mph, and he has already covered 18 miles, how long has he been biking already?
so Hector has been biking for those 18 miles for 3/2 of an hour, namely and hour and a half already.
then Wanda kicks in, rolling like a lightning at 16mph.
let's say the "meet" at the same distance "d" at "t" hours after Wanda entered, so that means that Wanda has been traveling for "t" hours, but Hector has been traveling for "t + (3/2)" because he had been biking before Wanda.
the distance both have travelled is the same "d" miles, reason why they "meet", same distance.

<span>Statistical sampling:
Uses laws of probability for selection and evaluation of a sample.
Allows for quantification of audit risk and sufficiency of audit evidence.
Nonstatistical sampling:
Does not utilize statistical models in calcualtions.
Uses a non-mathematical approach to determine sample sizes and evaluate the selected samples.</span>
There is no ones place after the decimal so 3 is in the tenth place, so 2.4
To find the length of the side opposite the angle while knowing the hypotenuse we can use the sine function:
sin(53) = (side opposite angle of 53 degrees) / hypotenuse
sin(53) = x / 24
x = 24 sin(53)
x = 19.16
Hope that helped
