Every day going to school, June has to go by boat (point A) over a 217m-wide river to point B (the other bank), and then from B

walk to school at point D with distance AD ​​= 170m. In fact, due to the flowing water, the boat was pushed by the water at an angle of 50 degrees and brought her to point C (the other shore). From C, June walk to school. Calculate the distance June traveled from A to D. (result rounded to the third decimal place)​

Answer:

  • 647m

Explanation:

The distance traveled by June, from A to D, is the sum of the distance from A to C plus the distance from C to D:

  • Travel from A to D = Distance AC + Distance DC.

<u>1) Find the distance AC</u>

  • Triangle ABC is a right triangle, from which you have to calculate the hypotenuse (AC), knowing angle A (50º), and its adjacent leg (217 m).
  • cos (50º) = 217m / AC
  • AC = 217m / cos (50º) = 337.59m

<u>2) Find the distance DC</u>

First, you need to calculate the side BC which is a common side of both triangles ABC and DBC.

You can use Pythagora's or a trigonometric function (tangent or sine).

  • tan (50º) = BC / 217 m ⇒ BC = 217 m × tan (50º) = 258.61 m

Now you can use Pythagora's theorem to find the distance DC, which is the hypotenuse of the triangle DBC:

  • DC² = (170m)² + (258.62)² = 95,779.41m²
  • DC = 309.48m

<u>3) Find the total distance traveled from A to D</u>

  • Travel from A to D = Distance AC + Distance DC = 337.59m + 309.48m = 647.07 m ≈ 647m.

Which graph shows the solution set for Negative 1.1 x + 6.4 greater-than negative 1.3? A number line going from negative 10 to 0
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A number line going from 0 to 10. An open circle is at 7. Everything to the left of the circle is shaded.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following inequality:

-1.1x + 6.4 > -1.3

to solve it, we need to isolate x, as follows:

-1.1x > -1.3 - 6.4

-1.1x > -7.7

x < -7.7/-1.1     (notice that while dividing with a negative number, the sign          changes)

x < 7
