Answer:

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle 30.7° is also the angle of the upper interior angle of the triangle (near the cabin)

Use the tan function:

opposite = 200 yards

adjacent = x

tan(30.7°) = (opposite / adjacent)

tan(30.7°) = 200 yards/x

x * tan(30.7°) = 200 yards

x = 200 yards/ tan(30.7°)

x= 200/ 0.594

x = 336.7 yards.

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

Tara ran the 1600 M event at a constant speed in 5 minutes and 20 seconds. what was her speed
ollegr [7]

5 m/sec or 300m / min

using speed = \frac{distance}{time}

change 5 min 20 sec to seconds = (5 × 60) + 20 = 320 sec

speed = \frac{1600}{320} = 5m / second or

speed = 60 × 5 = 300m / minute

Can u help me on showing my work and the answer
Serga [27]

Answer:

34/8 or 4 2/8

Step-by-step explanation:

6*8=48   48+5=53   =53/8

                                              >     (53/8) - (19/8) = 34/8 or 4 2/8

2*8=16    16+3=19    =19/8


You just change the whole numbers into fractions by multiplying it by the denominator, in this case 8. And then add your sum to the fraction part of the number to be left with just a fraction. To subtract, you just subtract the numerator, if the denominator is the same. In this case, it is, the denominator is 8.
