Answer:

2330.51 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the speed of the airplane = 610 mph.

The airplane leaves an airport at 9:00 P.M. with a heading of 270 degrees and at 10:00 P.M., the pilot changes the heading to 310 degrees.

So, for 1 hour the plane is heading at 270 degrees and for 3 hours, from 10:00 p.m to 1:00 a.m, the plane is heading at 310 degrees as shown in the figure.

As, distance = time x speed, so

The distance covered at 270 degrees, d_1 = 1\times610=610 miles.

The distance covered at 310 degrees, d_2 = 3\times610=1830 miles.

Total distance covered, d, is the magnitude of the sum of vectors \vec{d_1} and \vec{d_2} as shown in the figure.

The angle between the vectors \vec{d_1} and \vec{d_2}, \theta=310-270=40 degree.

Magnitude of sum of the vectors \vec{d_1} and \vec{d_2},

d= \sqrt{|\vec{d_1}|^2+|\vec{d_2}|^2+2|\vec{d_1}|\;|\vec{d_2}|\cos\theta} \\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{610^2+1830^2+2|\vec{d_1}|\;|\vec{d_2}|\cos\(40^{\circ})}

\Rightarrow d=2330.51 miles

Hence, at 1:00 a.m, the airplane is at a distance of 2330.51 miles from the airport.

Dana draws a triangle with one angle that has a measure of 40∘.
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

140°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Dana draws a triangle with one angle that has a measure of 40∘.

<u>Question asked:</u>

What is the measure of the angle’s adjacent exterior angle?

Solution:

<u>As we know:</u>

<u><em>Sum of the adjacent interior and exterior angles is 180°.</em></u>

Interior angle = 40°

Adjacent exterior angle = ?

Interior angle + Adjacent exterior angle = 180°

40° + Adjacent exterior angle = 180°

<u>By subtracting both sides by 40°</u>

40° - 40° + Adjacent exterior angle = 180° - 40°

Adjacent exterior angle = 140°

Therefore, the measure of the angle’s adjacent exterior angle will be 140°.

A crew consists of 1 apprentice, 1 journeyman, and 1 master carpenter. The crew receives a check for $6400 for a job they just f
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Apprentice = $800

Journeyman = $1600

carpenter = $4000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the apprentice earns X dollars.

Then ,

Journeyman will make 200% of apprentice's earning which is 2X.

Also,

Carpenter makes 250% of the earning that journeyman makes.

Which is 2.5(2X) = 5X

Their total earning should come to $6400.

Thus,

X + 2X + 5X = 6400

8X = 6400.

X = $800

So,

Earning of apprentice = X = $800

Earning of Journeyman = 2X = $1600

Earning of carpenter = 5X = $4000

Exponents represent repeated:
Molodets [167]

Answer:

An expression that represents repeated multiplication of the same factor is called a power. The number 5 is called the base, and the number 2 is called the exponent. The exponent corresponds to the number of times the base is used as a factor.
