Answer:
x ≈ 25.4 Km
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle on the right
tan54° = =
( multiply both sides by 17 )
17 × tan54° = opp , thus
opp ≈ 23.4
-------------------------------------------
Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle on the left
cos23° = =
( multiply both sides by x )
x × cos23° = 23.4 ( divide both sides by cos23° )
x = ≈ 25. 4 Km ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the expression. Remember to go by the order of operations, or PEMDAS.
1) First, distribute the numbers outside of the set of parentheses to the terms inside the set of parentheses next to them. Then, simplify the fractions.
2) Finally, combine like terms. (This means to add or subtract constants and to add or subtract terms with the same variables.) You may need to convert terms to the same denominator in order to do so easier. Then, reduce the fraction.
Thus, the answer is .
