Answer:
=135.53°
Step-by-step explanation:
The bearing that the captain should turn is the angle difference between the two islands from the position of the ship.
Let C be the position of the ship, then
AB is c=160
AC is b=220
BC is a=200
We use the cosine rule as follows:
c²=a²+b²-2ab Cos C
160²=200²+220²-2×200×220 Cos C
25600=88400-88000Cos C
88000 Cos C=88400-25600
88000Cos C=62800
Divide both sides by 88000.
Cos C=62800/88000
=0.7136
C=44.47°
He should turn (180°-44.47°)=135.53°

Answer:
<em>Buffalo's snowfall rate is 1.83</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Rate of change</u>
It usually refers to how fast one quantity changes with respect to another, frequently time.
In our problem, we are given the information on two snowfall rates, one during the winter of 2012–2013 in Buffalo, New York, and the other in Oswego, New York. Buffalo received 22 inches of snow in 12 hours. It means the rate of change or ratio of snowfall in time is:

The snowfall rate received by Oswego is:
