To find kilometers using latitude and longitude:

distlon = lon2 - lon1   = 133-161 = -23

distlat = lat2 - lat1  = 54-48 = 6

a = (sin(distlat/2))^2 + cos(lat1) * cos(lat2) * (sin(distlon/2))^2  

a = (sin(6/2)^2 + cos(48)*cos(54)* sin(-23/2)^2

c = 2 * arctan2( sqroot(a), sqroot(1-a) )  

d = R * c (where R is the radius of the Earth, 6373 km's)

d = 2052 km's

April 30th to May 22nd is 23 days.

23 days x 24 hours per day = 552 hours.

Rate of travel = 2052 / 552 = 3.717 km per hour ( round answer as needed.)

Franco made a dozen muffins for his party. Upon taking them out of the oven,
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete; find the complete question with the attachment.

Franco made number of muffins = a dozen

A dozen muffins = 12 muffins

Number of muffins were burned = 2

Remaining muffins = 12 - 2 = 10

Franco served 7 of the remaining non-burned muffins,

Fraction of muffins served = \frac{7}{10}

Remaining muffins = 3

Fraction of remaining muffins = \frac{3}{10}

Fraction of remaining non-burned muffins we can get from,

\frac{10}{10}-\frac{7}{10}=\frac{3}{10}

Option B is the correct equation.

The ratio of oranges to apples in Helen's basket is 4:3. The basket has 12 apples in it. How many oranges are in the basket?
frez [133]

Answer:

16 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of oranges to apples is 4:3 which means that for every four oranges, there are 3 apples.

Since there are 12 apples in the basket, to find the number of oranges, set up a ratio.

4/3 = x/12 (x represents the number of oranges)

Cross multiply.

48 = 3x

Divide by 3.

x = 16

There are 16 oranges in the basket.

Hope that helps.

-5/4x - 2)=-2(3 +6x)
Alex

Answer:

x = (-16)/43

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(-5 x)/4 - 2 = -2 (6 x + 3)

Put each term in (-5 x)/4 - 2 over the common denominator 4: (-5 x)/4 - 2 = (-5 x)/4 - 8/4:

(-5 x)/4 - 8/4 = -2 (6 x + 3)

(-5 x)/4 - 8/4 = (-5 x - 8)/4:

(-5 x - 8)/4 = -2 (6 x + 3)

Multiply both sides by 4:

(4 (-5 x - 8))/4 = -2×4 (6 x + 3)

(4 (-5 x - 8))/4 = 4/4×(-5 x - 8) = -5 x - 8:

-5 x - 8 = -2×4 (6 x + 3)

4 (-2) = -8:

-5 x - 8 = -8 (6 x + 3)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

-5 x - 8 = -48 x - 24

Add 48 x to both sides:

48 x - 5 x - 8 = (48 x - 48 x) - 24

48 x - 48 x = 0:

48 x - 5 x - 8 = -24

48 x - 5 x = 43 x:

43 x - 8 = -24

Add 8 to both sides:

43 x + (8 - 8) = 8 - 24

8 - 8 = 0:

43 x = 8 - 24

8 - 24 = -16:

43 x = -16

Divide both sides of 43 x = -16 by 43:

(43 x)/43 = (-16)/43

43/43 = 1:

Answer:  x = (-16)/43
