Answer:
16.9 km
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram attached, we can see that the problem forms a triangle.
So, to find the distance(d) from the boat to Beachton , we can make use of Pythagoreas theorem.
Thus;
d² = 16.8² + 2.2²
d² = 282.24 + 4.84
d² = 287.08
d = √287.08
d = 16.9434
Approximating to the nearest tenth, we have;
d ≈ 16.9 km
15 minutes is one quarter of an hour, so the number of people accommodated in an hour would be 4 x 55 = 220 people per hour
Answer:
C: y+7=2/5(x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of the equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...
y -k = m(x -h)
You are given m=2/5 and (h, k) = (-4, -7). Put these numbers into the form and simplify the signs:
y -(-7) = 2/5(x -(-4)) . . . . . numbers put into the form
y +7 = 2/5(x +4) . . . . . . . signs simplified . . . . matches choice C
