Given:

AB = 370 miles
angle A = 24 degrees
BC = 240 miles
angle B = 37 degrees 

To determine the distance from point A to C, we can use the cosine law since we are given two angles and two sides of a regular triangle. 
The angle opposite side AC is angle B which is equal to 37 degrees. 

(AC)^2 =(AB)^2 + (BC)^2 - 2(AB)(BC)cos(B)

solve for AC:

(AC)^2 =(370)^2 + (240)^2 - 2(370)(240)cos(37) 

AC = 229.48 miles.

Therefore, the distance from point A to C is 229.5 miles.

Determine how long it will take an object to rotate through 20.0 revolutions at an angular velocity of 2.8 radians per second. U
Andreyy89
The conversion factor between radians and revolution as measures of angle is 2π rad is equal to 1 revolution. Converting the given angular velocity to rev/s,
                (2.8 rad) x (1 rev / 6.28 rad) = 70/157 revolution per second
Dividing the given angle, 20 rev by the velocity,
                                 (20 rev) / (70/157 rev/s) = 44 6/7 s
Thus, the answer is approximately 44.9 seconds.

3) gentry is training for a marathon. she increases the amount of time she runs by 5 mins. each day to build up her endurance. o
nika2105 [10]
Y=5x+30

X is the days

And so by plugging in x you get

y=5(5)+30
y=25+30
y=55

And so by day 5 she's running 55 minutes

But that's what I think
