This is a vector problem. The distance of drift is in x (horizontal axis).
remember that Sin Ф=opposite/hypotenuse. x represents the opposite side form the angle, and 18 is the hypotenuse.
Sin 2.2°=x/18
18 sin 2.2°=x
.691 ≈x
The ship drifts off course .691 miles every hour. .691 x 5 = 5.69 miles after 5 hours.
Answer:30
Step-by-step explanation:6 times 4 is24 and to the nearest 100 it will be 30
The answer would be 4(x+1).
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for x, you can set up a proportion between the 2 triangles we see.
The small triangle can be written as 
, and the large triangle can be written as 
.
Set both proportions equal to each other.
Cross multiply and solve for x.
32x+272=560
32x=288
x=9
