4. Normal body temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, although it varies slightly for some people.
Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
I the given triangle, it appears that M and N are the midpoints of the segments BG and BD respectively. If it so, then let us solve it.
By mid segment theorem:
2MN = GD
2(6x - 51) = 114
12x - 102 = 114
12x = 114 + 102
12x = 216
x = 216/12
x = 18
Let α represent the acute angle between the horizontal and the straight line from the plane to the station. If the 4-mile measure is the straight-line distance from the plane to the station, then
sin(α) = 3/4
and
cos(α) = √(1 - (3/4)²) = (√7)/4
The distance from the station to the plane is increasing at a rate that is the plane's speed multiplied by the cosine of the angle α. Hence the plane–station distance is increasing at the rate of
(440 mph)×(√7)/4 ≈ 291 mph
