Do cherry popsicles freeze slower than orange popsicles
The car heads east at an average speed of 50 miles per hour from the intersection point towards East. The truck heads east at an average speed of 60 miles per hour from the intersection point towards South.
The distance of car from the intersection point after t hours is 
.
The distance of truck from the intersection point after t hours is 
.
Since these distances are perpendicular to each other, distance apart d (in miles) at the end of t hours is
Thus the distance apart is 
The hypotenuse is measured at 120 meters of string, and you need to solve for the leg of the triangle that is horizontal. The degree is 40, so use trigonometry to figure it out.
Cosin (40) is equal to around .766
Adjacent/Hypotenuse
x/120 = cos40
Answer: 91.92533.
If you use 3 significant figures it should be 91.9 meters.
Symbolic representations are mental pictures that have no direct relationship to the actual object you are thinking about. Instead, these mental pictures are connected by themes that are meaningful to you. Anytime you think of words and descriptions for one main concept, you're thinking symbolically. Analogical representations are mental pictures that have a direct relationship to the actual object you are thinking about. Do cows have their ears on the top or side of their heads? Rather than thinking symbolically about a cow and his ears (tiny, smelly, leather), analogical representations of the cow's ears involve thinking of an actual cow in your head.
