Check the picture below.

notice that the car exits the northbound highway, and whilst going at 50mph for 1.5 hours, that simply means going for 75 miles.

make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.

Answer:

37.5 miles is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since car is travelling with a speed = 50 mph

Angle between the highway and the track on which the car is travelling = 30°

Now we know sin∅ = distance between highway and the car/Distance traveled by the car on the new track

Distance traveled by the car in 1.5 hours = speed × time

                                                                   = 50 × 1.5 = 75 mi.

Therefore sin 30° = x/75

x = 75×sin30° = 75 × 1/2 = 37.5 mi.

Therefore the answer is 37.5 mi away.

Solve the following factorize and the en- equation of quadrate equation X² + 5x + 7 x = 0​
nlexa [21]

Answer:

{-12,0}

Step-by-step explanation:

first to solve this can collect like terms and add

X² +12x=0

and solve it by factorization method

X² +12x=0

x(x+12)=0

it means x multiplied by x = X² then x multiplied by 12 = 12x

so this means x or (x+12) equals to zero

x=0 and (x+12)=0

x+12=0

x=-12

so the solution set is {-12,0}

but can also be done by formula method
