Answer:

It’s 60miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the trip is "d" miles and that the "extra hour" refers to the additional time that a current of 2 mph would add. That is, we assume the reference time is for a current of 0 mph.

The time with no current is ...

 time1 = distance/speed

 time1 = d/12 . . . . hours

With a current of 2 mph in the opposite direction, the time is ...

 time2 = d/(12 -2) = d/10

The second time is 1 hour longer than the first, so we have ...

 time2 = 1 + time1

 d/10 = 1 + d/12

 6d = 60 + 5d . . . . multiply by 60

 d = 60 . . . . . . . . . subtract 5d

The one-way distance is 60 miles.

The minute hand on a clock is 9 centimeters long and travels through an arc of 252 degrees every 42 minutes. To the nearest tent
kkurt [141]

Answer:

39.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying

s = 2πrθ/360................ Equation 1

Where s = length of an arc or distance traveled by the minutes hand of the clock during the 42 munites, r = length of the minutes hand of the clock, θ = Angle traveled by the minute hand of the clock for every 42 minutes

From the question,

Given: r = 9 cm, θ = 252°

Constant: π = 22/7 = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

s = (2×3.14×9×252)/360

s = 39.564

s = 39.6 cm

Answer:

x = 35 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The height of the person is 5 feet.

The height of the flag and the eye is (x-5) feet.

We can calculate using trigonometry.

\tan\theta=\dfrac{(x-5)}{30}\\\\\tan(45)=\dfrac{(x-5)}{30}\\\\(x-5)=30\\\\x=30+5\\\\x=35\ ft

So, the value of x is equal to 35 feet. The correct option is (c).
