Answer:

10 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question you have to use Pythagorus Theorem. a²+b²=c²

a = 15

b = 20

So, 15²+ 20² = c²

= 225 + 400 = 625

So Ferris to Butte is \sqrt{625} which is 25.

So now you would do 15 + 20 to find out Wayne's distance. 35 - 25 = 10.

Hope it made sense and I didn't waffle

Here's some guidelines to help you:

For 1, 4, 5, and 6, they are 30-60-90 triangles. What's that you may ask? Well, it means that the sides have a predetermined length when one side is given. In #1 for example, you have a side of 11sqrt3, this means that "n" is 11 because in a 30-60-90 triangle, the longer side is the sqrt3 times the length of the shorter side. So to get the shorter side, we divide by sqrt3 to get 11. "m", or the hypotenuse, can be determined by taking twice the length of the shorter side. Since we figured out earlier that the shorter side is 11, 11 times 2 is 22. So the answer for #1 is n=11, m=22.

For 2 and 3, they are 45-45-90 triangles, triangles where the two lengths are the same and the hypotenuse is either leg length times sqrt2. In problem #2 for example, "y" must be 17 because one leg length is 17. "x", or the hypotenuse, is equal to 17sqrt(2) because 17 times sqrt(2).

You can apply all these rules to the other 4 problems I didn't explain.

Hope this long explanation clears your doubts!

Answer:

A linear formula for S as a function of D is S=17D+1534

Step-by-step explanation:

We are supposed to find a linear formula for S as a function of D.

Equation of line : y = mx+c

We are given that At the surface, the speed of sound is 1534 meters per second.

c = 1534

We are given that for each increase in depth by 1 km, the speed increases by 17 m/s

So, Slope = m = 17

Substitute the values in equation

y=17x+1534

x denotes depth

y denotes speed

We are given that Use D for depth and S for the speed of sound

So, S=17D+1534

Hence a linear formula for S as a function of D is S=17D+1534
