Answer:

No. Hank wont be able to complete the hike.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time Available for hike = 4 hours

The expression which represents the time Hank needs to complete the hike is:

\text{time}=\frac{1}{2}d+\frac{1}{2}e

d is the distance in miles of the hiking trail. Since, Hank would like to hike 6 miles, d = 6

e is the elevation gain in thousands. Since, the trail hank will hike on has an elevation gain of 3000, so e = 3

Using these values in the expression, we get:

\text{Time}=\frac{1}{2}(6)+\frac{1}{2}(3)=4.5

This means Hank should allow him 4.5 hours or the hike. Since he has only 4 hours available, he wont be able to complete the hike. So the answer to this question is No.

Find m KTL. Please I need help
Neko [114]
We know angles 3 and 4 = 123°. We also know that they are both located on a straight line, which is 180°. If we subtract 123 from 180, we get 57°, which is the size of the two angles in the smaller triangle KTL is located in.

Now, if we add up all the angles of a triangle, we get 180. With that knowledge, we can subtract 114° (57 x 2) from 180 and get out answer, which is 66°.
