For this case, we can model the problem as a triangle with a right angle.
Where,
x, y: lengths of the sides of the triangle
d: hypotenuse of the triangle
We then have the following relationship:

Clearing d we have:
Answer:
A functions that would best model the situation above is:
D square root
Answer:
314 is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
314 is the correct amswer to 628 ÷ 2, however, the answer to 2 ÷ 628 is invalid and would need to be simplified.
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C, The marble is 3 times as likely to be black as it is to be white.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of a marble being drawn is:
number of marbles of that color/total number of marbles
Find total number of marbles
5+8+4+15= 35
So the probability of drawing:
white: 5/32
polka dot: 8/32
striped: 4/32
black: 15/32
The probability of drawing white, polka dot, or striped is obviously different, so A is wrong.
The probability of drawing every color but black is 5/32 + 8/32 + 4/32 = 17/32, which is more than the chance of drawing black, so B is wrong.
The probability of drawing black is 15/32, and that is 3 times larger than the probability of drawing white (5/32), so C is correct.
The probablility of drawing a polka dot is 8/32, which is not four times as large as stripe (4/32), so D is wrong.
Remark
This may be a little confusing, but because they are travelling in opposite directions, the distances add when you want to get how far apart they are.
d1 + d2 = 1541
Equation
Let the time this happens = t
d1 = 323*t
d2 = 347*t
323*t + 347*t = 1541 Combine like terms on the left.
670t = 1541 Divide by 670
t = 1541/670
t = 2.3 hours pass before the distance of 1541 miles are between the two planes. You might need the answer to be 2 hours 18 minutes.
