8 0

Answer:

B, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this you can use the Pathagaryos thereom a^2+b^2=c^2

So we have (x-2)^2+x^2=20

We can expand (x-2)^2 and get

x^2-4x+4

so we have x^2 -4x +4 + x^2=20

We can combine like terms and subtract 20 from both sides to get

2x^2-4x-16=0

We can factor this and get (2x+4)(x-4)

which means that x=4 and -2

Obviously the length can't be a negative and so we reject x= -2 and we get x=4

We can double check it and see that

(4-2)^2+4^2=20

and it does

Alika [10]

Answer:

The distance between them is 230.65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we use the Cosine formula

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc\ cos\ A\\\\a^2 = 200^2 + 300^2 - 2\times 200\times 300cos50^{\circ}\\\\= 40,000 + 90,000 - 120,000cos50^{\circ}\\\\= 130,000 - 120,000 \times 0.64\\\\= 130,000 - 76,800\\\\a^2= 53,200\\\\a = \sqrt{53,200} \\\\= 230.65\ miles\ per\ hour

Now the distance for one hour is

= 230.65 ÷ 1

= 230.65 miles
