Answer:

the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the distance we need to use the Pythagoras theorem

d^2 = 800^2 + 200^2

d= 824.6 m

we can find the direction by using the eq for a tangent

he opposite side is 200 m and the adjacent side is 800m

tan theta = opposite / adjacent

theta = arc tan (800/200)

The hawk is at a distance of 824.6m flying at an angle 76 degrees NE of the mountain peak.

The final location will be southwest of the mountain peek.

a2+b2=c2

a = 200

b= 800

c = √(2002+8002) = 824.62

So the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

fomenos

Answer: $11.48

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you have to multiply 3.25 by 2.55 because the grapes are 2.55 per pound. That makes 8.2875 for the first occasion. Next, you have to multiply 1.25 by 2.55 for the second occasion. That makes 3.1875. You then have to add 8.2875 and 3.1875. You get 11.47500, and that rounded to the nearest cent is $11.48.

A farmer has enough feed to last his 15pigs for 20days. How long would the feed last if he had 10pigs​
ddd [48]

40/3 days, (13.33 days)

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation, 15/20 = 10/x, and then use cross mutiply to solve it.

10 * 20 = 15x, x = 200/15 = 40/3

Why?

b/c if each pig eats the same amount of food, then the ratio between the number of pigs and days should remain constant.
