The distance of plane from the origin is 357.14 miles

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

distance traveled southwards, y = 600 miles

Distance traveled east of south, z = 250 miles

Angle, θ = 35°

Distance of plane from the origin, x = ?

The figure is attached for reference:

tan θ = Perpendicular / base

tan θ = distance travelled east of south / x

tan 35° = 250 / x

we know,

tan 35° = 0.7

So,

0.7 = \frac{250}{x} \\\\x = \frac{250}{0.7} \\\\x = 357.14 miles

Therefore, the distance of plane from the origin is 357.14 miles

Which of the following is the equation for a line parallel to y=2x−5 and having a y-intercept of −3? Select one: a. y=−3x−5 b.y=
Firdavs [7]

When we write a line equation in the form

y=mx+q

m is the slope of the line, and q is the y-intercept.

Since we want the y-intercept to be -3, our line will look like

y=mx-3

In order to fix the slope, remember that two parallel lines have the same slope. So, the slope of the given line y=2x-5 is 2, and since we want a line parallel to this line, our slope will be 2 as well.

Plugging the values, we can finish the equation:

y=2x-3

At a hot dog stand they serve regular hot dogs and footling hot dogs at a ratio of 5 to 3. Based on this ratio how many footlong
natta225 [31]
Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio is 5:3
So total ratio "parts" is 5 + 3 = 8
In total there are 120 dogs served, so each part is:
120/8 = 15 dogs
Since, footlong hot dogs are "3" parts, and each part is 15 dogs, there will be:

3 * 15 = 45 footlong hotdogs
