Answer:

Resultant speed = 12 km/h.

Bearing is 107.14 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be represented by a triangle of velocities with lengths 15 and 5 with the included angle = 45 degrees.

To find the velocity of the resultant  we use cosine rule:

v^2 = 15^2 + 5^2 - 2*5*15cos 45

v^2 = 143.934

v = 12.0 km/h to the nearest tenth.

To find the bearing we use the sine rule to find the angle down from due east>

12 / sin 45 = 5/ sin x

sin x =  5 sin 45 / 12 = 0.2946278

x = 17.14 degrees.

Bearing is therefore 90 + 17.14 = 107.14 degrees.

What is the quotient (x3 – 3x2 + 5x – 3) ÷ (x – 1)?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

  1. x^2 -2x +3
  2. x^2 +2x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient in each case can be found by any of several means, including synthetic division (possibly the easiest), polynomial long division, or graphing.

1. The graph shows you the quotient is (x-1)^2 +2 = x^2 -2x +3.

2. The graph shows you the quotient is (x+1)^2 +2 = x^2 +2x +3.

NEED ANSWERS ASAP, 100 POINTS! There are twenty classes at each of two middle schools. The number of students in each class at e
DiKsa [7]

Note: You missed to add the dot plots chart. As I found the chart after a little research. Thus, I am attaching it and based on that dot plot chart I am solving the question which anyways would clear you concept.

Answer:

'There are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School' is the correct statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, it is clear that

The data set containing Poplar Middle School:

20   20   20   21   21   21   21   21   22   22   22   22   22   22   22   23   23   23   23   24  

The mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. Using math notation we have:

\mu = 435/20

  =\frac{87}{4}

   = 21.75

The data set containing Oak Middle School:

20   21   21   22   22   23   23   23   23   24   24   24   25   25   26   26   27   27   28   29  

The mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. Using math notation we have:

\mu = 483/20

   =24.15

So, the difference in mean will be:

                                            24.15 - 21.75 = 2.4

Therefore, 'there are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School' is the correct statement.

2. Given: mZABD = rº and mZACB = yo
Ede4ka [16]

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle ABC = 180 - x, as ABD and ABC are complementary angles on top of the bottom line : all angles around a point on one side of a line are always adding up to 180 degrees.

but because we also know that the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees too, we can say

180 = ACB + ABC + CAB

180 = y + 180 - x + CAB

0 = y - x + CAB

x = y + CAB

x - y = CAB

therefore, the second answer option is correct.
