<h3>
Answer: Choice D) 31.2 miles</h3>
This value is approximate.
============================================================
Explanation:
Let's focus on the 48 degree angle. This angle combines with angle ABC to form a 90 degree angle. This means angle ABC is 90-48 = 42 degrees. Or in short we can say angle B = 42 when focusing on triangle ABC.
Now let's move to the 17 degree angle. Add on the 90 degree angle and we can see that angle CAB, aka angle A, is 17+90 = 107 degrees.
Based on those two interior angles, angle C must be...
A+B+C = 180
107+42+C = 180
149+C = 180
C = 180-149
C = 31
----------------
To sum things up so far, we have these known properties of triangle ABC
- angle A = 107 degrees
- side c = side AB = 24 miles
- angle B = 42 degrees
- angle C = 31 degrees
Let's use the law of sines to find side b, which is opposite angle B. This will find the length of side AC (which is the distance from the storm to station A).
b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
b/sin(42) = 24/sin(31)
b = sin(42)*24/sin(31)
b = 31.1804803080182 which is approximate
b = 31.2 miles is the distance from the storm to station A
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
Answer:
(B) Decrease by 12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we know that the revolution is proportional to the circumference.
And we know that the average number of revolutions of 32 inch tires for Tuesday is higher than the original value of 28 inch tires for Monday.
We know that we have x mi/hr, so we can select a value fo x in order to find the average revolutions with the following formula:
Let's say that we select a value for x for example x= 28*32 = 896, since this value is divisible by 32 and 28.
If we find the average revolutions per each case we got:
Tuesday:
Monday:
And then we can find the % of change like this:
And if we replace we got:
Because we are assuming that the initial amount is the value for Monday and the final value for Tuesday.
So then the best answer for this case would be:
(B) Decrease by 12.5%
Divide x by x drag the 2 over get the auadteic formula cross it over by 5 and add 6 to your answer
