Answer:
(A)The northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle attached represents the given problem.
First, let us determine the distance of the Boat from each of the lighthouse.
In Triangle ABC,
∠A+∠B+∠C=180 degrees
21+∠B+16=180
∠B=180-37=143 degrees.
Using Law of Sines

Similarly

Difference in Distance =35.73-27.48=8.25 miles
Therefore, the northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
Answer:
44
Step-by-step explanation:
1. substitute variables with their constants
(-9)(-3) - (-3)(8) - 7
2. multiply all like terms
(27) - (-24) - 7
3. Combine all like terms
27 + 24 - 7
51 - 7
= 44
Boys : Girls = 3 : 5
3 + 5 = 8 parts
<u>Find 1 part:</u>
8 parts = 40 students
1 part = 40 ÷ 8 = 5 students
<u>Find number of boys and girls:</u>
3 parts = 3 x 5 = 15 girls
5 parts = 5 x 5 = 25 boys
Original Number of students = 15 : 25
<u>Find new ratio:</u>
New Ratio = 15 + 3 : 25 - 1 = 18 : 24 = 3 : 4
Answer: 3 : 4
