Answer:

90 km, N 46° E

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A jet flies due North for a distance of 50 km and then on a bearing of N 70° E for a further 60 km. Find the distance and bearing of the jet from its starting point.</em>

Look at the diagram I drew of this scenario. You can see the jet flies North for 50 km, and then turns at a 70° angle to fly another 60 km. We want to find the distance from the starting point, SP, to angle C (labeled).

This will be the jet's distance from its starting point.

In order to find the bearing of the jet from its starting point, we will need to find the angle formed between distances b and c, labeled angle A.

The <u>Law of Cosines</u> will allow us to use two known sides and one known angle to solve for the sides opposite of the known angle.

In this case, the known angle is 110° (angle B) so we will use the <u>Law of Cosines</u> respective to B.

  • b² = a² + c² - 2ac cosB

Substitute the known values into the equation and solve for b, the distance from the starting point (A) to the endpoint (C).

  • b² = (60)² + (50)² - 2(60)(50) cos(110°)
  • b² = 6100 -(-2052.12086)
  • b² = 8152.12086
  • b = 90.28909602
  • b ≈ 90 km

The distance of the jet from its starting point is 90 km. Now we can use this b value in order to calculate angle A, the bearing of the jet.

The <u>Law of Cosines</u> with respect to A:

  • a² = b² + c² - 2bc cosA

Substitute the known values into the equation and solve for A, the bearing from the starting point (clockwise of North).

  • (60)² = (90.28909602)² + (50)² - 2(90.28909602)(50) cosA
  • 3600 = 8152.12086 - 6528.909602 cosA
  • -4552.12086 = -6528.909602 cosA
  • 0.6972252853 = cosA
  • A = cos⁻¹(0.6972252853)
  • A = 45.79519
  • A ≈ 46°

The bearing of the jet from its starting point is N 46° E. This means that it is facing northeast at an angle of 46° clockwise from the North.

Answer:

The price of hot dog is $2.5 and that of a pretzel is $1.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of hotdogs be x and that of pretzels be x.

So,

4x+3y = 13.75 ...(1)

and

2x+5y = 11.25 ...(2)

Multiply equation (2) by 2.

4x+10y = 22.5 ...(3)

Subtract equation (1) from (3).

4x+10y-(4x+3y) = 22.5-13.75

4x+10y-4x-3y = 8.75

7y = 8.75

y = 1.25

Put the value of y in equation (1).

4x+3(1.25) = 13.75

4x+3.75 = 13.75

4x = 13.75-3.75

4x = 10

x = 2.5

So, the price of hot dog is $2.5 and that of a pretzel is $1.25.
