If you just type that exact equation into a calculator it gives you the same answer as well
Since the motor boat left the dock 2 hours before the tour boat, their meeting point will be 27 miles from the dock from which both boats departed after 3 hours.
<h3>What is the distance?</h3>
Distance is the movement of an object regardless of direction. The distance can be defined as the amount of length an object has covered, regardless of its starting or ending position
We know that r × t = d
r = rate of speed
t = time
d = distance
For the motor boat
9 × t = d = rate × time
For the tour boat
27 × (t - 2) = d = rate × time
When they both cover the same distance in the same amount of time, they will eventually cross paths.
They both cover the same d-mile distance, so:
9 ×t = 27 × (t - 2)
Simplify to get:
9 × t = 27 × t - 54
18 t = 54
t = 3
The motor boat will have traveled at 9 mph for 3 hours to make a distance of 9 × 3 = 27 miles.
The tour boat will have traveled at 27 mph for 1 hour to make a distance of 1 × 27 = 27 miles.
Since the motor boat left the dock 2 hours before the tour boat, their meeting point will be 27 miles from the dock from which both boats departed after 3 hours.

In general, you're calculating the magnitude of average velocity. In fact, speed is a vector, and as such it also has a direction and orientation.
So, if you compute the average speed, you're assuming that you went directly from point A to point B, which is basically never the case.
If, instead, you actually moved on a straight line from point A to point B, then the two quantities are the same.
The rest of the question is the attached figure
========================================
solution:
========
As show in the attached figure
∠M = ∠R = 54.4°
∠N = ∠T = 71.2°
∠O = 180° - (∠M + ∠N) = 180° - (54.4°+71.2°) = 54.4°
∠S = 180° - (∠R + ∠T) = 180° - (54.4°+71.2°) = 54.4°
∠O = ∠S = 36°
∴ Δ MNO is similar to Δ RTS
So, the correct statement:
The triangles each have two given angle measures and one unknown angle measure.
Given:
The given sets are:
Set a : 200, 104, 100, 160.
Set b: 270, 400, 483, 300, x.
Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
Formula for mean:
The mean of set of a is:
The mean of set of b is:
It is given that,
Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8
Isolate the variable x.
Divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, the value of x is 427.
