Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to calculate the decrease

= 500-425

= 75

The percentage decrease can be calculated as follows

= 75/500 ×100

= 0.15×100

= 15%

Hence the percent decrease is 15%

Without using a trigonometric ratio, find the distance from the ship to the buoy, B. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of

alexdok [17]

Without using the trigonometry ratio, we can find the distance between the ship and the buoy by:

the distance between City and Lemont SUBTRACT the vertical distance between City and the point parallel to the Ship

The distance between the City and Lemont can be worked out using the Sin rule
$\frac{57.8}{sin(36)}= \frac{City-Lemont}{sin(92)}$
$City-Lemont= \frac{57.9sin(92)}{sin(36)} = 98.27.....$ ≈98.3

The vertical distance between the City and the point parallel to the ship can be worked out using the Pythagoras theorem
$\sqrt{57.8^{2}- 44.6^{2} } =36.765...$ ≈36.8

The distance between the ship and the Buoy is given:
$98.3-36.8=61.5$ miles

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

153.94 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for Area is

Area = πr²

Plugging in the value for the radius into r, it will be

(note, r means radius)

Area = π(7)²= 49π ≈ 153.94

The units is -> in² so add that in the end

HELP I NEED THIS WITHIN 2 MINUTES AB if AC = 13.2 And BC = 6.8

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

AB = 6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that AB + BC is AC, then we can say the following:

AB + BC = AC

AB + 6.8 = 13.2

AB + 6.8 + -6.8 = 13.2 + -6.8

AB = 6.4

Cheers.
