using satellite technology the distance between two planes can be measured by keeping track of the angles between them and the d

istances of each plane to the tracking station. assume plane 1 is 176.27 miles away and plane two is 222.34 miles and the angle formed with the tracking station is 38.59 degrees. how far apart is the planes

With the given in this item, the best way to solve for the distance between the planes is through the cosine law which can be mathematically expressed as,
                             c² = b² + a² - 2ab(cosC)
Substituting the given,
       c² = (176.27 mi)² + (222.34 mi)² - 2(176.27 mi)(222.34 mi)(cos 38.59°)
                            c = 138.71 mi
Thus, the distance between the two planes is approximately 138.71 miles.

A student has gotten the following grades on his tests. What is the minimum grade he must get on the last test in order to have
likoan [24]

72 is the minimum grade he must get on the last test in order to have an average of 77.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The grades of a student are given 72,91,78,72 and the grade of his last test is not given.

  • You have to find the minimum grade the student shall get, so that the student average must be 77.
  • The four grades are already given. Therefore, we need to find only the fifth grade.

The term average is defined as the sum of all the data in a set divided by the number of data in a set.

Here, the number of data is 5. (Because the students has 4 grades plus one grade for his last test).

The average he should get is 77.

Average = Sum of all grades / number of grades

Let, 'x' be the grade of the last test.

⇒ 77 = (72+91+78+72+x) / 5

⇒ 77 = (313+x) / 5

⇒ 385 = 313 + x

⇒ x = 385 - 313

⇒ x = 72

The minimum grade he must get on the last test is 72.

gary mixes a solution using two types of concentration of sale: .70 gallons of 5% and .30 gallons of 22% salt. what is the conce
wolverine [178]

Answer:

10.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we should do is calculate the total volume of the solution when mixing them would be:

0.7 + 0.3 = 1

Now, we have that the resulting concentration (x) would be equal to the sum of the multiplications between the volumes and the concentrations to be mixed, as follows:

x * 1 = 0.7 * 0.05 + 0.3 * 0.22

x = 0.035 + 0.066

x = 0.101

That is, the concentration of the resulting mixture would be 10.1% (0.101 * 100)
