Answer: here is your steps Simplifying

8x + -37 = 5x + 17

Reorder the terms:

-37 + 8x = 5x + 17

Reorder the terms:

-37 + 8x = 17 + 5x

Solving

-37 + 8x = 17 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

-37 + 8x + -5x = 17 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 8x + -5x = 3x

-37 + 3x = 17 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

-37 + 3x = 17 + 0

-37 + 3x = 17

Add '37' to each side of the equation.

-37 + 37 + 3x = 17 + 37

Combine like terms: -37 + 37 = 0

0 + 3x = 17 + 37

3x = 17 + 37

Combine like terms: 17 + 37 = 54

3x = 54

Divide each side by '3'.

x = 18

Simplifying

x = 18

Without using a trigonometric ratio, find the distance from the ship to the buoy, B. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of

alexdok [17]

Without using the trigonometry ratio, we can find the distance between the ship and the buoy by:

the distance between City and Lemont SUBTRACT the vertical distance between City and the point parallel to the Ship

The distance between the City and Lemont can be worked out using the Sin rule
$\frac{57.8}{sin(36)}= \frac{City-Lemont}{sin(92)}$
$City-Lemont= \frac{57.9sin(92)}{sin(36)} = 98.27.....$ ≈98.3

The vertical distance between the City and the point parallel to the ship can be worked out using the Pythagoras theorem
$\sqrt{57.8^{2}- 44.6^{2} } =36.765...$ ≈36.8

The distance between the ship and the Buoy is given:
$98.3-36.8=61.5$ miles
