Answer:

B. 41.8° is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Length of Eduardo's flight path = 273 miles

Length of Paul's flight path = 357 miles

Distance between their destinations = 238 miles.

Now, using the law of cosines, we get,

238^2=273^2+357^2-2\times 273\times 357\times \cos \theta

i.e. 56644=74529+127449-194922\times \cos \theta

i.e. 56644=201978-194922\times \cos \theta

i.e. 194922\times \cos \theta=145334

i.e. \cos \theta=0.7456

i.e. \theta=\arccos 0.7456

i.e.  θ = 41.8°

Hence, the angle between their flight paths is 41.8°.

What is the range of the set of data : 13, 16, 10, 15, 6, 6​
aniked [119]
The range is the difference between the largest and smallest number. So for those numbers the lowest value is 6 and the highest is 16. So 16 - 6 = 10

So the range is 10

Answer:

B 12

Step-by-step explanation:

  • manuel ate 1/3X
  • His brother ate 1/4X
  • leftover is 5
  • total is X

manuel+brother+leftover=X

x/3+x/4+5=x

7x+60/12=x

  • cross multiply

7x+60=12x

  • collect like terms

60=12x-7x

60=5x

  • divide both by 5

x=60/5

x= 12

7.5d = 2.5d Lin divided each side by 2.5d and Elena subtracted 2.5d from each side with both leads to the solution
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Elena's move will lead to the solution of the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation 7.5d=2.5d, Lin divides each side by 2.5d, and Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side. Will both moves lead to the solution? Explain your reasoning

Given:

7.5d = 2.5d

Lin divides each side by 2.5d, Lin:

7.5d / 2.5d = 2.5d / 2.5d

3 = 1

This can not be the solution to the problem because 3 can not be Equal to 1

Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side

7.5d = 2.5d

7.5d - 2.5d = 2.5d - 2.5d

5d = 0

This can lead to the solution of the problem

Elena's move will lead to the solution of the problem
