1. Place your compass point on X and measure the distance to point Y. Swing an arc of this size above (or below) the segment.
2. Without changing the span on the compass, place the compass point on Y and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc.
3. Label the point of intersection as the third vertex of the equilateral triangle.
4. Use you straight edge and connect the points.
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
System of equations:
20x + 30y = 650
x + y = 25
Time underwater = 10 hours
Time at the surface = 15 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = time underwater at 20 km/h.
Let y = time on the surface at 30 km/h.
speed = distance/time
distance = speed * time
distance underwater: 20x
distance on the surface: 30y
total distance: 650
20x + 30y = 650
total time: x + y
total time: 25
x + y = 25
20x + 30y = 650
x + y = 25
20x + 30y = 650
-20x - 20y = -500
--------------------------------
10y = 150
y = 15
x + y = 25
x + 15 = 25
x = 10
