A boat sails for 5 hours at 30 mph in a direction 164°56'. How far south has it sailed (to the nearest mile)?

Mathematics

Total distance covered = 5 x 30 = 150 miles
Angle of travel with respect to south pole = 180 - 164°56' = 15°4'

Let the distance southwards covered be x, then
cos 15°4' = x/150
Thus, x = 150 cos 15°4' = 144.84

Therefore, the distance covered southwards = 145 miles to the nearest mile.

Can you help me<br>4(b–1)²–9​
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

(b-1)²-9​

= 4[(b - 1)(b - 1)] - 9

= 4[b² - b - b + 1] - 9

= 4(b² - 2b + 1) - 9

= 4b² - 8b + 4 - 9

= 4b² - 8b - 5

Hope this helps!

avanturin [10]

Solution:

we have been asked to find

Which length is greater 1/2 meter or 240 centimeters.

To compare the two given lengths, we will have to make both the length in same unit system.

Here 1/2 meter can be written as 50 centimeter , because 1 meter =100cm.

Now its very clear that 240 centimeters is more than 50 centimeters.

Hence we can say 240 centimeters is greater than 1/2 meter .
