Answer: 336.80 miles, 15.85^{\circ} North of east

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Plane lands at a point 324 miles east and 92 miles north

Distance is given by using Pythagoras theorem

\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{324^2+92^2}\\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{113,440}\\\\\Rightarrow d=336.80\ \text{miles}

Direction is given by using figure i.e.

\Rightarrow \tan \theta=\dfrac{92}{324}\\\\\Rightarrow \tan \theta=0.2839\\\\\Rightarrow \theta=15.85^{\circ}

Direction is 15.85^{\circ} North of east

In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint, 2 cups of green paint, and 1/2 gal
ella [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint. Converting 1.5 quarts to cup,

1 quart = 4 cups

1.5 quarts = 1.5 × 4 = 6 cups

She also used 1/2 gallon of white paint. Converting 0.5 gallons to cup,

0.0625 gallons = 1 cup

0.5 gallons = 0.5/0.0625 = 8 cups

This means that the ratio of cups of blue paint to green paint to white paint is 6: 2 :8

Total ratio = 6 +2 + 8 = 16

To make 100 cups of this shade of green,

Cups of blue paint needed = 6/16 × 100 = 37.5 cups

Cups of green paint needed = 2/16 × 100 = 12.5 cups

Cups of white paint needed = 8/16 × 100 = 50 cups

A candy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism the volume of the box is 2400 cubic centimeters part A: what is the height
Whitepunk [10]
The volume of a triangular prism is the "area of a triangle" times the "thickness."
The area of a triangle is (base times height) over 2.
V = ((b*h)/2)*T
Given V = 2400 cu. cm, b = 16 cm, T = 20 cm, and h is unknown,
h = (2V)/(bL) = (2*2400)/(16*20) = 15 cm

Note that the given 17 cm in the picture is useless.
