Answer:
1 hour after they leave
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance each travels is proportional to its speed. The given speeds are at right angles to each other in a 5:12 ratio. The Pythagorean theorem tells you the hypotenuse of such a right triangle will have length ...
√(5²+12²)=√169 = 13
That is the speeds are in the ratio 5:12:13, where 13 represents the relative separation speed. Actual speeds are then 50 mph : 120 mph : 130 mph.
So the distance between the boat and steamer will be increasing at 130 mph. The distance will be 130 miles after 1 hour.
THE ANSWER IS D 8 BECAUSE I DID THE MATH
If one is positive we can conclude that the other is also positive
Positive*positive=positive(24)
The product of the two numbers is 24
And the smaller number is less than the greater number by 2
Factors of 24=1*24,2*12,3*8,4*6.
The only pair with the diffrence of two is 4*6
Therefore the two integers are 4 and 6
R = 10, T = 20
OK. Calculate the length of segment RT:
|RT| = |20 - 10| = |10| = 10
Divide |RT| into a ratio of 2:3
2 + 3 = 5
10 : 5 = 2
Therefore we have
|RS| = 2 · 2 = 4 and |ST| = 3 · 2 = 6 (4 + 6 = 10 CORRECT)
T = R + 4 and T = T - 6
T = 10 + 4 = 14; T = 20 - 6 = 14 CORRECT
<h3>Your answer is T = 14.</h3>
