Answer:

731 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can set up a proportion.

Let's name the number of miles he travels in 17 hours x for now.

8/344=17/x

Simplify 8/344

2/86=17/x

Cross multiply

86*17=2*x

2x=1462

Divide both sides by 2.

x=731

He would travel 731 miles in 17 hours.

The value of x to the nearest whole number is 68 degrees

<h3>Equations and expressions</h3>

Given the trigonometry function shown below:

y = 50 tan x

For the coordinate (x, 125)

If the value of y is 125, then;

125 = 50tanx

tanx = 125/50

tanx = 2.5

x = arctan(2.5)

x = 68.19

Hence the value of x to the nearest whole number is 68 degrees
