Answer:

\text{Decimal degrees} = 61.65^\circ    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the measure of an angle in degrees, minutes and seconds.

We have to convert this measure in decimal degrees.

\text{Measure of angle =} 61^\circ38'45''

1 degree equals 60 minutes or 3600 seconds.

The conversion is done with the help of formula:

\text{Decimal degrees} = d + \displaystyle\frac{m}{60} + \frac{s}{3600}\\\\\text{where d is the degree measur, m is the minute measure and s is the second measure.}

Putting the values, we have:

\text{Decimal degrees} = d + \displaystyle\frac{m}{60} + \frac{s}{3600}\\\\= 61 + \frac{38}{60} + \frac{45}{3600} = 61.65^\circ

A suitable calculator* can do this easily.

61°38'45" = (61 +(38 +45/60)/60)° ≈ 61.65°

I like the RealCalc app for Android, but many graphing calculators also will do this conversion. Of course, you can simply evaluate the expression as above.

An apple farmer is deciding how to use each day's harvest. She can use the harvest to produce apple cider or apple juice for the
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:For this item, we let x and y be the number of bushels of apple that will be used to produce apple cider and apple juice, respectively. The situation above is best represented by the following equations,

                                           x + y = 18

                                          20x + 15y = 330

The values of x and y from the equations above are 12 and 6, respectively. Therefore, 12 bushels will be used to make apple cider and 6 bushels will be used to make apple juice.
