Answer:

1001 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is formed where the points are the balloon, boat 1 and boat 2. We know the height of the triangle and the respective angles of each boat, if we cross a line just at the height of the balloon, two rectangular triangles are formed and we can calculate the distance from the ship to that point of height, the sum of these two distances, would be the distance between the two balloons.

To calculate this distance, we apply tangent of the angle:

tan ° A = opposite / adjacent

opposite is the height and adjacent the distance we want to find:

d1 = opposite / tan ° A

d1 = 300 / tan 40

d1 = 300 / 0.8390

d1 = 357.56

now for the other distance:

d2 = opposite / tan ° B

d2 = 300 / tan 25

d2 = 300 / 0.4663

d2 = 643.36

In other words, the distance between the boats is:

357.56 + 643.36 = 1000.92

Approximately 1001 feet

Katrina drinks 0.5 gallons of water per day which expression shows how to find the number of cups of water she drinks in a week
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

56 cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Katrina drinks 0.5 gallons of water per day

We have 7 days in a week, hence, the number of gallons of water she drinks per week is calculated as:

1 day = 0.5 gallons

7 days = x

Cross Multiply

1 day × x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons

x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons/1 day

x = 3.5 gallons

Note that 16 cups = 1 gallon

The number of cups of water she drinks per week is

1 gallon = 16 cups

3.5 gallons = x

Cross Multiply

1 gallons × x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups

x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups/1 gallons

x = 56 cups

Therefore, Katrina drinks 56 cups of water in a week
