Tan 2° = x / 1 mile,   where x is the vertical change
0.03492 = x / 1 mile
x = 1 mile · 0.03429 = 0.03492 miles
1 mile = 5,280 feet
0.03492 · 5,280 = 184.38 ft

Plz help! Sam had an appointment 90 miles away from home at 2pm. He drove there at 60 mph, and was 15 minutes late. What time di
never [62]

Answer:

12:45 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find out the amount of time it takes to drive 90 miles at 60 mph.

speed = distance/time

time * speed = distance

time = distance/speed

time = 90 miles / 60 mph

time = 1.5 hour = 90 minutes

It takes 1.5 hour, or 90 minutes, to drive 90 miles at a speed of 60 mph.

To get there at 2:00 pm, he should have left at 12:30 pm.

He got there 15 minutes late, so he must have left 15 minutes late.

He left at 12:45 pm.

Answer: 12:45 pm
