Answer:

Evening walk is shorter.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a nature center offers 2 guided walks. The morning walk is two-third mile. The evening walk is three-sixths mile. We are asked to find the shorter walk.

Let us compare both fractions by making the same denominator.

\text{Two-thirds}=\frac{2}{3}

\text{Two-thirds}=\frac{2\times2}{3\times2}

\text{Two-thirds}=\frac{4}{6}

\text{Three-sixth}=\frac{3}{6}

Upon making common denominator, we can see that two-thirds are equal to four sixths.

Since three-sixths is less than four-sixths, therefore, evening walk is shorter.

We will draw two rectangles, one with 6 sub-parts and other with three sub-parts.

We will shade 2 parts out of 3 sub-parts to represent 2/3 and shade 3 parts out of 6 sub-parts to represent 3/6.

Then we will further divide three sub-parts into 6 sub-parts as shown in the diagram that will represent 4/6.

Answer:

  16.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is useful here. It tells you ...

  b^2 = a^2 + c^2 -2ac·cos(B)

  b^2 = 22^2 +10^2 -2·22·10·cos(44°)

  b^2 ≈ 267.49

  b ≈ √267.49 ≈ 16.35514

  b ≈ 16.4
