Answer:

The distance of the boat from B is approximately 9.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of light house B from A = 9 miles west

The distance of the boat from A = 4 miles

The bearing of the boat from A = NE65

We have;

4/(sin25) = 9/sin(B)

sin B = 9*sin(25)/4

B ≈ 71.969

a² = 4² + 9² - 2 × 4 × 9 × cos(180 - 25 - 71.969) ≈ 88.264

The distance of the boat from B, a ≈ √88.264 ≈ 9.4

QUICK What is the solution to this system of equations? 3.2 x + 0.5 y = 4.2. Negative 1.6 x minus 0.5 y = 3.4.
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The solution is x=4.75  and   y = -22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution to the system of equations, we will follow the steps below:

3.2x + 0.5y = 4.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------(1)

-1.6x -0.5y = 3.4 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------(2)

add equation (1) and equation (2)

1.6x =7.6

Divide both-side of the equation by 1.6 to get the value of x

1.6x /1.6 =7.6/1.6

x =4.75

substitute x = 4.75 into equation (1) and solve for y

3.2(4.75) + 0.5y = 4.2

15.2 + 0.5y = 4.2

subtract 15.2 from both-side of the equation

15.2 - 15.2 + 0.5y = 4.2-15.2

0.5y = -11

Divide both-side of the equation by 0.5

0.5y/0.5 = -11/0.5

y = -22

The solution is x=4.75  and   y = -22
