A trimaran boat, with a top speed of 55 knots, won the tournament cup in 2010. Its top speed is 6 knots more than 3.5 times the

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

14 knots

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the speed (55 knots) is 6 more than 3.5 times the winner of the monohull in the 2007 tournament.

So let's set the variable for the speed of the monohull to <em>m</em>. Now, let's set up an equation:

$55 = 6 + (3.5 * m)$

We can solve this by first subtracting 6 from both sides to get:

$49 = 3.5 * m$

Dividing both sides by 3.5 we get:

$14 = m$

That means that the top speed of the monohull in the 2007 tournament was 14 knots

Find the distance (-4,5) and (7,18)

seropon [69]

Answer:

$\sqrt{290}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is

$\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}$

Hence, the distance between points $(-4,5)$ and $(7,18)$ is

$\sqrt{(-4-7)^2+(5-18)^2}\\ \\=\sqrt{(-11)^2+(-13)^2}\\ \\=\sqrt{121+169}\\ \\=\sqrt{290}\ units$
