Finding the Bearing<span> of a </span>Ship<span>
Example : A </span>ship<span> leaves the port of Miami with a </span>bearing<span> of S80◦E and a </span>speed<span> of. 15 knots. After 1 hour, the </span>ship<span> turns 90◦ toward the south.</span>
The answer is A. because the first part shows the ratio 3:2 and the other 2 shows equivalent ratios.
Let x = your number.
6x = x^2 - 27. Subtract 6x from each side.
0 = x^2 - 6x - 27. Factor
0 = (x-9) (x+3). Set each term equal to zero
(x+3) = 0. Subtract 3 from each side.
x = -3. This is the negative solution.
(x-9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.
x = 9. This is the positive solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Multiply the 2 with the X to get 2X.
Step 2: multiply the 2 with the 4 and get 8
Step 3: your answer is 2X+8
ANSWER: 3,520 yards = 2 miles.
440 yds is 1/8. Multiply 440 by 8 to get the full distance. Hope this helps! :)
