We know that
The arrangement forms an isosceles triangle with equal legs of 8 miles.
The angle between the legs is equal to

°
Therefore, the other two angles are
Angles = (180-60)/2 = 120/2 = 60°
It can, therefore, be noted that all angles are equal and thus the resulting triangle is actually an equilateral triangle and thus all the sides are equal.
Hence
the answer is
the distance between the two ships is 8 miles apart
alternative Method
Applying the law of cosines
<span>c²=a²+b²-2*a*b*cos C
</span>where
a=8 miles
b=8 miles
C is the angle between the legs-------> 123-63------> 60 degrees
c is the distance between the two ships
so
c²=8²+8²-2*8*8*cos 60------> c²=64-------> c=√64------> c=8 miles
1.) -4x-32 2.) -6x-3 3.) -3n-28 4.) -2x-7 5.) ??? 6.) 4b-2 (I couldn't figure out #5 sorry)
I think it’s d. A percent is out of 100 so it’s 156/100
The distance is 54 km if the speed and time are 72 km/h and 45 minutes respectively.
<h3>What is distance?</h3>
Distance is a numerical representation of the distance between two items or locations. Distance refers to a physical length or an approximation based on other physics or common usage considerations.
We have:
Speed = 72 km/h
time = 45 mins = 45/60 = 0.75 hours
We know,
Distance = Speed×time
Distance = 72(km/h)×0.75(h)
Distance = 54 km
Thus, the distance is 54 km if the speed and time are 72 km/h and 45 minutes respectively.

Answer:
The student is wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
To divide exponents (or powers) with the same base, subtract the exponents. In the second step, the wrong result is calculated.
