<span>Since both places are on the same longitude (122° west) and different lattitudes 45° north and 37° north, the distance between the two place lies on a great circle (along a line of longitude). Difference in latitudes = 45 - 37 = 8° (subtract the lattitudes because both sides are on the same side in the latitude i.e. both are north) The distance between two points along the line of longitude is given by theta / 360 x 2 x pi x R: where theta = 8° and R is the radius of the earth = 3,960 miles. d = 8 / 360 x 2 x pi x 3960 = 552.9 miles</span>

kakasveta [241]
You first have to set up the two equations. Y is equal to the total number of gallons in a tank and x is equal to the number of hours the tanks are filling.

Since the two equations both equal y I can make them equal each other. I then solved for x as you see and got -4.

Once I found my x value I now needed to find my y. You only needed to chose one equation to solve for y, so I decided to do the first one. I plugged in -4 where my x value currently was and solved for y. I got 2.


If you have any questions please comment!! Hope this helps!!
