Answer:
about 0.7 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
When you draw a diagram of the problem, you see that the shortest distance back to the course is the distance traveled times the sine of the angle:
distance off course = (14 mi/h)×(2 h)×sin(1.4°) ≈ 0.684 mi
The ship is about 0.7 miles from its intended course.
Part A: About 0.21
We will put the wanted outcome (yellow pieces of candy) over the total number of possible outcomes (total pieces of candy).
About 0.21
Part B: About 50
First we will do the same as we did with the yellow pieces of candy, wanted outcomes over possible outcomes.
0.25
Now, we will multiply the total 200 pieces by 0.25 since 0.25 of them are estimated to be green.
200 * 0.25 = 50
I estimate about 50 of the pieces to be green.
He should have added 1 to both sides to make the -1 on the right go to 0.
Then it would be 0 + m = -16 + 1 = -15
You can check your work by adding -1 and -15, which does in fact equal -16.
Hope this helped :)
Step-by-step explanation:
2p - 12 = 8p - 12
Bringing like terms on one side
-12 + 12 = 8p - 2p
0 = 6p
0 - 6 = p
-6 = p
