An archaeological site is to be made accessible for viewing by the public. To do this, archaeologists built two straight paths f

rom point A to point B and from point B to point C as shown in the following diagram. The length of path AB is 185 m, the length of path BC is 250 m, and angle B is 125°, diagram not to scale Archaeological Site a. Find the length of AC​

Answer:

387 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of AC, b can be obtained using the cosine rule ; using the cosine relation:

b² = a² + c² - 2ac CosB

b² = 250² + 185² - 2(250*185) Cos125

b² = 62500 + 34225 - 92500 * −0.573576

b² = 96725 + 53055.820

b² = 149780.82

b = sqrt(149780.82)

b = 387.01527

b = 387 km (nearest whole number)

The price of an American Airlines ticket to Boston increased to $600. This is a 15 percent increase. What was the old fare? Roun
FinnZ [79.3K]
The old fare was "x"
then it got bumped up by 15%, and the new price is x + 15% of x,
so.. one could say, that "x" is the 100%, then you add a 15% to
it, to get 600
thus \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
x&100\\
600&100+15
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{600}=\cfrac{100}{100+15}

solve for "x"

Neglecting air resistance and the weight of the propellant, determine the work done in propelling a four-ton satellite to the fo
balandron [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Work = force × distance

force = mass × acceleartion due to gravity

a four ton satellite will have a force of 4× 1000 ×10 = 40KN (1000Kg = 1 ton)

1 mile = 1609.34 metre

therefore (a) 100 miles above the earth

work = 40000 × 100×1609.34

= 6437360000J

=6.4GJ

(b) 300 miles above the earth

work = 40000×300×1609.34

= 1.93×10¹⁰ J

The best approximation for square root of 110 is
N76 [4]
The best approximation is 10 because the two closest perfect squares to 110 is 100 and 121. the one that's closest to 110 though is 100. the square root of 100 is 10.
