Answer:

8 : 24 P.M

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

On December 1 bright star Procyon will just be rising on the eastern horizon at 10 P.M

Now,

we know that Stars rise 4 minutes earlier each night

Therefore,

24 days later i.e after 24 nights the total early time

= 24 days × 4 minutes per day

= 96 minutes

or

= 1 hour 36 minutes early

Hence,

on Christmas Day the star will rise at 1 hour 36 minutes early than 10 P.M

= 8 : 24 P.M

fredd [130]
<span>Let the height of the tree be h foot. Trigonometric ratio for tangent = Opposite side / adjacent side----(1) Since the tree is standing vertically on a level ground, the three points, [ Top of the tree, the point where the tree touches the ground and the point where the shadow ends] form a right angled triangle. Applying (1) for the above three points, tan(24.7)=(height of the tree)/(length of shadow) Hence, height of the tree = tan(24.7)*(length of the shadow) = (0.46)*140 = 65 foot (Rounding off to the nearest foot)</span>

Minato drove 390 miles. Part of the drive was along local roads, where his average speed was 20 mph, and the rest was along a hi
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

45 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the:

Total distance covered = 390 miles

Total time = 8 hours

Let the distance covered along the local way = L

And the distance covered along the highway = H

Along with local way,

Speed = distance/ time

20 = L / T

T = L /20 .... (1)

Along the highway,

Distance covered H = 390 - L

Let the time = t

Speed = distance/time

60 = (390 - L)/t

t = ( 390 - L)/60

But total time = T + t

That is

8 = L/20 + (390 - L)/60

The LCM at right hand side will be 60

8 = ( 3L + 390 - L )/60

Cross multiply

480 = 2L + 390

Collect the like terms

2L = 480 - 390

2L = 90

L = 90/2

L = 45 miles.

Therefore, the distance Minato drive along local roads is 45 miles
