An aircraft on a reconnaissance mission takes off from its home base and flies 550 miles at a bearing of S 46° E to a location i

n the sea. It then flies 483 miles from the sea at a bearing of S 55° W to another location. Finally, the aircraft flies straight back from the second location to its base. What is the total distance it flies, rounded to the nearest mile?

If you're solving for the length of that side just use the pythagorean theorem so the hypotenuse or your missing side equals: <span>
hypotenuse = square root ( 5.5^2  + 4.83^3 )
hypotenuse = square root (30.25 + 23.3289)
</span><span>hypotenuse = square root (53.5789)
</span><span>hypotenuse = 7.32
</span>
So, the total distance is 7.32 miles.

Answer:

<em>The fraction of the beads that are red is</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Algebraic Expressions</u>

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}       \qquad\qquad    [1]

Knowing that:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3}      \qquad\qquad    [2]

\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}

Multiplying the equations above:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6}       \qquad\qquad    [3]

Dividing [1] by r:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}

Operating:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}

The fraction of the beads that are red is \mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}

Translate the figure 5 units up. Then decide if each statement about translated figures is true or false,
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

First, second, and third are true.

Fourth is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. When we're translating a figure, everything about the figure stays the same except its location on the coordinate plane. The side lengths, the angle measures, and parallel sides will not change.

2. The fourth one is false because two figures/objects are congruent if they have the same shape and size. Since translation only affects the location on a coordinate plane, the original and final figure are congruent.

How to do -7x-3x+2=8x-8
zavuch27 [327]
<span><span>If you would like to solve the equation </span>- 7 * x - 3 * x + 2 = 8 * x - 8, you can calculate this using the following steps:<span>

- 7 * x - 3 * x + 2 = 8 * x - 8
- 7 * x - 3 * x - 8 * x = - 8 - 2
- 18 * x = - 10    /(-18)
x = 10 / 18
x = 5/9

<span>The correct result would be </span>5/9<span>.</span></span></span>
