Answer: 17.5t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Speed of boat A is v_a=9\ mi/hr

Speed of boat B is v_b=15\ mi/hr

Both are moving perpendicular to each other

Distance traveled by Boat A x_a=9t

Distance traveled by Boat B x_b=15t

Distance between them is given by Pythagoras theorem

\Rightarrow d^2=(x_a)^2+(x_b)^2\\\\\Rightarrow d^2=(9t)^2+(15t)^2\\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{(9t)^2+(15t)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{81t^2+225t^2}\\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{306t^2}\\\\\Rightarrow d=17.49t\approx 17.5t\ \text{miles}

Distance between them is 17.5t

Well divide them. 2/3=0.666 repeated. So use a bar over the top of the third six.

Ebony earned scores of 72 70, 81, 99, and 88 on five math tests. Determine her
Minchanka [31]

Let it be x

\boxed{\sf Average=\dfrac{Sum\:of\:terms}{No\:of\:terms}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{72+70+81+99+88+x}{6}=83

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{410+x}{6}=83

\\ \sf\longmapsto 410+x=498

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=498-410

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=88

What is the area of the trapezoid if a = 10 b= 18 and h = 6 inches?
yanalaym [24]

[ Answer ]

\boxed{\bold{84 \ In.^{2} }}

[ Explanation ]

  • Formula For Area Of Trapezoid: \boxed{\bold{\frac{a \ + \ b}{2}Height }}

-----------------------------------------

A = 10

B = 18

H = 6

  • Plug Numbers Into Equation: \boxed{\bold{\frac{10 \ + \ 18}{2}Height }}

  • Solve

10 + 18 = 28

28 ÷ 2 = 14

14 · 6 = 84

  • Final Answer

84

\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}
