Answer:

Distance= 6.6 miles

Bearing= N 62.854°W

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's determine angle b first

Angle b=20° (alternate angles)

Using cosine rule

Let the distance between the liner and the port be x

X² =8.8²+2.4²-2(8.8)(2.4)cos20

X²= 77.44 + 5.76-(39.69)

X²= 43.51

X= √43.51

X= 6.596

X= 6.6 miles

Let's determine the angles within the triangle using sine rule

2.4/sin b = 6.6/sin20

(2.4*sin20)/6.6= sin b

0.1244 = sin b

7.146= b°

Angle c= 180-20-7.146

Angle c= 152.854°

For the bearing

110+7.146= 117.146

180-117.146= 62.854°

Bearing= N 62.854°W

Debby, Ella and Unique invest $10,000 each into an oil company. Debby owns 2000 $1 common stocks, Ella owns 1000 of 5% $50 prefe
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Ella has the greatest return in the current year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Debby would receive $0.80 for each of her 2000 common stock in the oil company,hence Debby's return on investment in the current year is $1600($0.80*2000)

Besides,Ella's return on the stock investment in the current year is computed thus:

Ella's return= 5%*1000*$50=$2,500

In addition,Unique's dollar return on the investment is computed as follows:

Unique's return on  investment=4%*2000*$20=$1,600

From the above computations,Ella seems to have the highest return in the current year of $2,500 whereas the two others managed to have $1600 return each
