Answer:

10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cos a = 3 /5

From trigonometry ;

Cos θ = Adjacent / hypotenus

Side Adjacent angle a = 3 = FD

Hypotenus = 5 = DE

3 / 5 = FD / DE

FD = 6 units

3/5 = 6/DE

DE * 3/5 = 6

DE = 6 ÷ 3/5

DE = 6 * 5 /3

DE = 30 /3

DE = 10 units

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For Mia:

distance,d = 100 yard

time, t = 2 min 33 sec = 153 s

Speed = distance / time

speed = 100 / 153 = 0.65 yard/s

For Larisa:

distance, d = 350 yard

time, t = 5 min 18 sec = 318 s

speed = 350 / 318 = 1.1 yard/s

So, the speed of Larisa is more than the speed of Mia.
