Answer:

299.99 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the plane traveled due west,

The total angle is 49.17 + 90

Represent that with θ

θ = 49.17 + 90

θ = 139.17.

Represent the sides as

A = 170

B = 150

C = unknown

Since, θ is opposite side C, side C can be calculated using cosine formula as;

C² = A² + B² - 2ABCosθ

Substitute values for A, B and θ

C² = 150² + 170² - 2 * 150 * 170 * Cos 139.17

C² = 22500 + 28900 - 51000 * Cos 139.17

C² = 51400 - 51000 (−0.7567)

C² = 51400 + 38,591.7

C² = 89,991.7

Take Square Root of both sides

C = 299.9861663477167

C = 299.99 miles (Approximated)

Hence, the distance between the plane and the airport is 299.99 miles

If f(x) = -χ^3 + χ^2 + x, find f(-3).<br> Answers<br><br> -39<br><br> -21<br><br> 15<br><br> 33
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

33

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(- 3) substitute x = - 3 into f(x)

f(- 3) = - (- 3)³ + (- 3)² + (- 3) = - (- 27) + 9 - 3 = 27 + 9 - 3 = 33
