Answer:

44 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that;

Speed; v = 60 mph

Reaction time;t = 0.5 s

Now, we know that;

Distance = speed x time

Since time is in seconds, let's convert speed to mph to ft/s

From conversion,

1 mph = 1.46667 ft/s

So, 60 mph would give;

60 × 1.46667 ≈ 88 ft/s

Thus, distance his car travels during his reaction time is;

Distance = 88 × 0.5 = 44 ft

Find the degree measure of each angle in the triangle
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

∠L = 43°

∠M = 121°

∠N = 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Start by setting all sides equal to 180</u>

3x - 5 + 7x + 9 + x = 180

<u>Add like terms</u>

11x + 4 = 180

<u>Solve for x</u>

11x + 4 = 180

      - 4     - 4

      11x = 176

     / 11     /11

        x = 16

<u>Now, plug in 16 for all instances of x on the triangle and solve.</u>

∠L = 43°

∠M = 121°

∠N = 16°

A school P is 16km due west of a school Q. what is the bearing of Q from P​
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

16Km due east of school P

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A school P is 16km due west of a school Q

Thus, we can say that distance PQ = 16 km.

________________________________

now we have to find  the bearing of Q from P​

As distance is same

distance PQ = distance QP

Thus,

Distance will remain same of 16 km.

For direction,

If Q is west of P, then P will be east of QP------------------>Q

as shown in figure P is west of Q,

now from point P , Q is west P.

Thus,

Bearing of  School Q from P is 16Km due east of school P
