To find the answer, we can first find the distance each of them have, then divide it by their speed to find the time needed.
Distance Steve need to travel: 300 feet
Distance Paula need to travel:
300+175(behind steve) = 475 feet
Time needed respectively:
Steve: 300 ÷ 9 = 33.33.. seconds
Paula: 475 ÷ 15 = 31.66... seconds
As we can see from the result, Paula would take less time to reach the goal (31.66<33.33),
therefore, Paula win the bike race by:
33.33-31.67
=1.66...
≈1.67 feet
Thus Paula won by 1.67 feet.
Hope it helps!

Answer:

Discussion:
Angle J = 180 - (120 + 40) = 180 - 160 = 20 degrees,
From the law of sines
sin(120)/k = sin(20)/2 =>
sin(120) = k * ( sin(20)/2) ) (multiply both sides by "k")
k = sin(120)/ ( sin(20)/2) (divide both sides by sin(20)/2)
k = (0.866) / ( 0.171) = 5.06

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Trigonometric Ratios
</u>
This problem will be solved by the use of a trigonometric ratio called sine because it relates the opposite side of a given angle with the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Selecting the angle of 60° in triangle ABD:
