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

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

A + B = 127

5.80A + 4.25B = 657.55

Solve with substitution.

5.80A + 4.25(127 − A) = 657.55

5.80A + 539.75 − 4.25A = 657.55

1.55A = 117.80

A = 76
