i'm not sure how to solve the first one but the second is 150
They get 2/3 because 2 divided by 3=2/3.
Answer:
183 miles to the nearest mile.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance =Speed X Time
Distance of Truck B from point A=45 X2 =90 miles
Distance of Truck C from point A=55 X2 =110 miles
Angles between them, BAC=132°
We want to find the Distance BC denoted by a between the trucks.
Using Cosine Rule,
a²=b²+c²-2bcCos A
=90²+110²-(2X90X110XCos132°)
=33448.79
a=√33448.79
BC=182.89 miles
The distance between the trucks is 183 miles to the nearest mile.
It would be 6.5 excuse if it was 14 it would be 7 but the other half would be 6.5
Rate = (150 miles)/(3 hrs) = 50 mph
so . . .
(50 mph)*(time) = 400 miles
*divide both sides by 50 mph
time = (400 miles)/(50 mph) = 8 hrs
time = 8 hrs
