Answer:
Distance= 6.6 miles
Bearing= N 62.854°W
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's determine angle b first
Angle b=20° (alternate angles)
Using cosine rule
Let the distance between the liner and the port be x
X² =8.8²+2.4²-2(8.8)(2.4)cos20
X²= 77.44 + 5.76-(39.69)
X²= 43.51
X= √43.51
X= 6.596
X= 6.6 miles
Let's determine the angles within the triangle using sine rule
2.4/sin b = 6.6/sin20
(2.4*sin20)/6.6= sin b
0.1244 = sin b
7.146= b°
Angle c= 180-20-7.146
Angle c= 152.854°
For the bearing
110+7.146= 117.146
180-117.146= 62.854°
Bearing= N 62.854°W
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 13y = 232 
12x + 7y = 218
For each choice:
a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have
- 65x - 169y = - 3016 
84x + 49y = 1526
Can not eliminate x and y.
b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have
35x  + 91 y = 1624 
156x + 91y = 2834
Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD. 
<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>
<em></em>
c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.
-60x - 156y = - 2784
 60x + 35y = 1090
The answer is YES
d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.
25x + 65y = 1160
144x + 84y = 2616
Can not eliminate x and y
The final answer is C

 Hello!
Answer:

|2x - 5| = 4
Solve for the negative and positive expressions:
2x - 5 = 4
2x = 9
x = 9/2
------------
-(2x - 5) = 4
-2x + 5 = 4
-2x = -1
x = 1/2.
Therefore, the solutions are x = 1/2 and 9/2.
