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

You do not need to flip the inequality sign when solving the inequality -3t + 7 ≥ 9. True False
nordsb [41]
Hello!

It is False because t is multiplied by a negative number, so to solve for it you will need to divide both sides by -3 which mean you have to flip the sign. 

Hope this helps!

NO LINKS!! Use the method of substitution to solve the system. (If there's no solution, enter no solution). Part 11z​
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

\begin{cases}y=x^2-9\\y=4x-4\end{cases}

To solve by the method of substitution, substitute the first equation into the second equation and rearrange so that the equation equals zero:

\begin{aligned}x^2-9&=4x-4\\x^2-4x-9&=-4\\x^2-4x-5&=0\end{aligned}

Factor the quadratic:

\begin{aligned}x^2-4x-5&=0\\x^2-5x+x-5&=0\\x(x-5)+1(x-5)&=0\\(x+1)(x-5)&=0\end{aligned}

Apply the <u>zero-product property</u> and solve for x:

\implies x+1=0 \implies x=-1

\implies x-5=0 \implies x=5

Substitute the found values of x into the <u>second equation</u> and solve for y:

\begin{aligned}x=-1 \implies y&=4(-1)-4\\y&=-4-4\\y&=-8\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}x=5 \implies y&=4(5)-4\\y&=20-4\\y&=16\end{aligned}

Therefore, the solutions are:

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}

Beth is going to enclose a rectangular area in back of her house. the house wall will form one of the four sides of the fenced i
Alina [70]

The maximum possible area would have a length of 24 feet and width of 12 feet.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on other variables while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variables.

Let x represent the length and y represent the width, hence:

Since beth has 48 ft fencing and cover 3 sides, hence:

x + 2y = 48  

x = 48 - 2y     (1)

Also:

Area (A) = xy

A = (48 - 2y)y

A = 48y - 2y²

The maximum area is at A' = 0, hence:

A' = 48 - 4y

48 - 4y = 0

y = 12 feet

x = 48 - 2(12) = 24

The maximum possible area would have a length of 24 feet and width of 12 feet.
