Answer:

482 km

63.94 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this question we will use the cosine rule. For starters, draw your diagram. From point A, up north is 500km and 060 from there, another 300. If you join the point from the road junction back to the starting point, yoou have a triangle.

Cosine rule states that

C = \sqrt{A^{2} + B^{2} -2AB   cos(c)  }

where both A and B are the given distances, 500 and 300 respectively, C is the 3rd distance we're looking for and c is the given angle, 060

solving now, we have

C = \sqrt{500^{2} + 300^{2} -2 * 500 * 300 cos(60)  }

C = \sqrt{250000 + 90000 - [215000   cos(60)  }]

C = \sqrt{340000 - [215000 * 0.5  }]

C = \sqrt{340000 - [107500  }]

C =\sqrt{232500}

C = 482 km

The bearing can be gotten by using the Sine Rule.

\frac{sina}{A} = \frac{sinc}{C}

sina/500 = sin60/482

482 sina = 500 sin60

sina = \frac{500 sin60}{482}

sina = 0.8983

a = sin^-1(0.8983)

a = 63.94 degrees

A manufacturer produces cherry, peppermint, cinnamon, and orange-flavored gum. Each flavor is available with sugar or sugar-free
Semenov [28]

Answer: The total number of different types of labels will the manufacturers have to produce = 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Choices for flavours = 4

Choices for sugar = 2  {either sugar or sugar free}

Choices for the qunatity = 3

By Fundamental counting principle,

Total number of different types of labels will have to produce = (Choices for flavors) x (Choices for sugar)x (Choices for the quantity )

= 4 x  2x 3

=24

Hence, the total number of different types of labels will the manufacturers have to produce = 24.

(-1, -5)<br><br><br> (-2, -4)<br><br><br> (-5,-1)<br><br><br> (-4, -2)
notka56 [123]

Answer:

  (-4, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

  A = (-1, 2)

Add (-3, -4) to that and you get ...

  A' = (-1-3, 2-4) = (-4, -2) . . . . matches the last choice

__

The translation function has the effect of moving the point left 3 and down 4. You can count grid squares on the graph to see that A' ends up at (-4, -2).
