Let us assume that the time taken by the category 3 hurricane to travel from Cuba to Key West = X minutes
Speed of the category 3 hurricane is given as 20.88 km/hr
So the category 3 hurricane can travel 20.88 km in 1 hour.
The distance between Cuba and Key West = 145 km
Then
20.88 km is travelled by the category 3 hurricane in = 60 minutes
145 km from Cuba to Key west is travelled by the category 3 hurricane in = X minutes
So,
X = [(145 * 60)/20.88] minutes
   = 416.66 minutes
   = 17 hours and 36 minutes
Time taken by the category 3 hurricane to reach Key West from Cuba is 17 hours and 36 minutes.

Write an equation of the circle with center (4,5) and radius 9.
mixer [17]

Answer:

I'm going to write both of these because maybe you have a fill in the blank question. I don't know.

(x-4)^2+(y-5)^2=9^2

Simplify:

(x-4)^2+(y-5)^2=81

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 is the equation of a circle with center (h,k) and radius r.

You are given (h,k)=(4,5) because that is the center.

You are given r=9 because it says radius 9.

Let's plug this in.

(x-4)^2+(y-5)^2=9^2

Simplify:

(x-4)^2+(y-5)^2=81

If Anthony wants to end his day at Navy Pier (10,9) will it be more efficient to go to the Chicago theater (0,3) and then Millen
HACTEHA [7]
Distance formula
D = √((x1 - x2)2 + (y1 - y2)2) We have three distances that we are dealing with. Between the Theater and the Park, between the Theater and the Pier, and between the Park and the pier. In both routes we have to go between the Theater and the Park. The distance between those is the same regardless of which way we go, so we can ignore doing the math for that. That leaves us two distances. Let's plug them in. Theater to PierD = √((0 - 10)2 + (3 - 9)2) = √(100 + 36) ≈ 11.6619 Park to PierD = √((2 - 10)2 + (1 - 9)2) = √(64 + 64) ≈ 11.3137 11.3 < 11.7
