-2 -1 0 1 2
The 4 arrows above the number line represents the distance between 2 and -2 which is 4!
If we let
x as the distance traveled by the boat
y as the distance between the boat and the lighthouse.
Then, we have:
tan 18°33' = 200 / (x + y)
and
tan 51°33' = 200 / y
Solving for y in the second equation:
y = 200 / tan 51°33'
Rearranging the first equation and substituting y
x = 200 / tan 18°33' - 200 / tan 55°33'
x = 458.81 ft
Therefore, the boat traveled 458.81 ft before it stopped.
Answer:
3.5% decrease means 96.5% remaining
0.965(16)
4.25% decrease means 95.75% remaining
0.9575(0.965(16))
= 14.7838 grams
If Jordan has $55 and she earns $67 by doing chores, you can calculate how much money does Jordan have now using the following step:
$55 + $67 = $122
Result: Jordan has $122.
