Answer: The distance between them is 8.38 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose both of them start at the point (0km, 0km), and that Jack walks along the positive x-axis, then Jill walks at an angle of 105° measured from the positive x-axis.

After 45 minutes, jack has walked 4.5km, then if his initial position was (0 km, 0 km)

Then his new position will be (4.5km, 0km)

Jill has walked 6km, but we need to write this in rectangular components.

We can think in this as a triangle rectangle, then the components will be:

x-component = 6 km*cos(105°) = -1.55 km

y-component = 6km*sin(105°) = 5.80 km

Then the new position of Jill is ( -1.55km, 5.80km)

Now, we know that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

Distance = √( (a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2)

Then the distance between Jill and Jack will be equal to the distance between ( -1.55km, 5.80km) and (4.5km, 0km)

This is:

Distance = √( (-1.55km - 4.5km)^2 + (5.80km - 0km)^2)

Distance = 8.38 km

This means that they are 8.38km apart.

In her last basketball game, Carla scored 46 points. In the current game, she has scored 24 points so far. How many more two-poi
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Carla needs to make at least 11 two-pointer shots in the surrent game

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we can do is to find the difference between the number of points that Carla scored in her first game and her second game.

This will be 46 - 24 = 22 points difference

Carla needs to make a certain number of two-pointers to get at least the same score she had in her previous game.

We can get this number of two-pointers that needed to be made by dividing the difference in scores by 2

i.e number of two-pointer shots = 22/2 =11 shots

Therefore, Carla needs to make at least 11 two-pointer shots to be able to get the same score in her current game.

Twice Henry's earnings increased by 10 is $253. Therefore, Henry earned $____
valina [46]

Answer:

121.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the earnings

2x+10 = 253

Subtract 10 from each side

2x+10-10 = 253-10

2x = 243

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 243/2

x = 121.50
