Answer: it turned 115.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle formed is shown in the attached photo. The angle turned by the ship in the north west direction is ange A. To determine angle A, we would apply the law of Cosines which is expressed as

a² = b² + c² - 2abCosA

Where a,b and c are the length of each side of the triangle and A is the angle corresponding to a. Likening the expression to the given triangle, it becomes

165² = 111² + 83² - 2(111 × 83)CosA

27225 = 12321 + 6889 - 2(9213)CosA

27225 = 19210 - 18426CosA

18426CosA = 19210 - 27225

18426CosA = - 8015

CosA = - 8015/18426

CosA = - 0.435

A = Cos^- 1(- 0.435)

A = 115.8° to the nearest tenth

As a salesperson at Roaring Waves Beach Supplies, Carissa receives a monthly base pay plus commission on all that she sells. If

babymother [125]

y = her salary,
m = rate of commission,
x = amount of merchandise sold
b = monthly base pay

sets of data to calculate the formula
(500, 405) and (900, 489)

use the slope formula to find m:
(489 - 405) / (900 - 500)
m= 84 / 400 = 0.21 (21% commission)

find the base pay by substituting known values for x,y, and m, then solve for b:
405 = (0.21)(500) + b
405 = 105 + b
b = 300

now we know the equation for her salary is:
y = 0.21x + 300

To find the salary when she sells $1,700 worth of merchandise, put 1700 for x and solve for y:
y = 0.21(1700) + 300 = 657

BRAINLIEST ANSWER PLEASE

Answer:

Jim- Ocean

Darrell- Lake

Janet- Mountains

Stephanie- Desert

Step-by-step explanation:

If you read throughly Jim loves to surf the only place to surf is in the ocean because most lakes you cant surf.

Darrell live by a lake because it said there was water near him and Jim loves to surf EACH MORNING which clearly would mean he lives near an ocean so Darrell would live by a lake

Stephanie lives in the desert because she don't like the mountains

Janet live in the mountains because its the last option
