The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Car moves 16 miles to north then 30 mile to east.

It forms a right angle triangle.

The straight line distance from starting to ending point represents hypotenuse.

To find the distance between starting and ending point.

Formula

By <em>Pythagoras theorem,</em>

h² = b²+l² where h is the hypotenuse, b is base and l is the another side.

Taking, b=16 and l=30 we get,

h² = 16²+30²

or, h = \sqrt{256+900}

or, h = \sqrt{1156} = 34

Hence,

The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.

11111nata11111 [884]
<span>The answer is 2 three-point shots. Since the Lakers made 37 two-point shots, one multiplies 37 by 2 (37 x 2), which equals 74. Then 74 is subtracted from the total 80 to see how many points are left (80 - 74), which equals 6. To determine the number of three-point shots, 6 is divided by 3 (6/3), which equals 2.</span>

sladkih [1.3K]
<h3>Answer:  18%</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Convert each percentage to decimal form

  • 30% converts to 0.30
  • 60% converts to 0.60

Then multiply the decimal values

0.30*0.60 = 0.18

That converts to 18%

So there's an 18% chance that both events happen at the same time. In other words, there's an 18% chance of the temperature falling below zero and the bus being late.
