Answer:

180.2776 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two cars start from the same place.

One car is heading towards north and another east.

that means the two cars travel path make 90 degrees at the origin.

Imagine the triangle with one vertex at the starting place right angled at 90 and other two vertices are the locations of the two cars.

We find this triangle has legs of  150 miles and 100 miles respectively.

The distance between the two cars = length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs 150 and 100 miles

= √(150^2)+100^2 (Using Pythagorean theorem)

= √32500

= 180.2776 miles

Please Please Please help me with the answer
Tems11 [23]

c = amount of chocolate donuts

m = amount of maple donuts.

so we know the total in all is 41 donuts, thus c + m = 41.

we also know that whatever c is, m is 25 fewer than that, m = c - 25.

\bf \begin{cases} c+m=41\\ \boxed{m}=c-25\\ --------\\ c+\boxed{c-25}=41 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 2c-25=41\implies 2c=66\implies c=\cfrac{66}{2}\implies c=33 \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{since c = 33}}{m = c - 25}\implies m=33-25\implies m = 8

Which of the following is the equation of a hyperbola with center at (0, 0), with a = 4, b = 1, opening horizontally?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

The equation of the hyperbola is x²/16 - y²/1 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the equation of the hyperbola

- The standard form of the equation of a hyperbola with  

  center (0 , 0) and transverse axis parallel to the x-axis is

  x²/a² - y²/b² = 1

# The length of the transverse axis is 2a

# The coordinates of the vertices are (±a , 0)

# The length of the conjugate axis is 2b

# The coordinates of the co-vertices are (0 , ±b)

# The coordinates of the foci are (± c , 0),  

# The distance between the foci is 2c where c² = a² + b²

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ The center of the hyperbola is (0 , 0)

∵ It is opening horizontally

∴ x²/a² - y²/b² = 1

∵ a = 4 , b = 1

∴ a² = (4)² = 16

∴ b² = (1)² = 1

∴ x²/16 - y²/1 = 1

∴ The equation of the hyperbola is x²/16 - y²/1 = 1
