Answer:
The boat turned <u>39°</u> degrees when it made its first turn.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is as following:
A boat traveled north for 28 miles, then tuned x° south west and traveled for 25 miles before stopping. When it stopped, the boat was 18 miles from its starting point.
By how many degrees did the direction of the boat change when it made its first turn? Round to the nearest degree.
===================================================
See the attached figure which represent explanation of the problem.
The boat start from point A to point B then stopped at point C
AB = 28 miles, BC = 25 miles and AC = 18 miles.
It is required to find the angle x
By applying the cosine Rule:
AC² = AB² + BC² - 2 * AB * BC * cos x
18² = 28² + 25² - 2 * 28 * 25 * cos x
2 * 28 * 25 * cos x = 28² + 25² - 18²
1400 cos x = 1085
Cos x = 1085/1400 = 0.775
x = Cos⁻¹ 0.775 = 39.2° = 39° to the nearest degree.
So, the boat turned <u>39°</u> degrees when it made its first turn.
Answer:
The height of the water = 6.2 in. to the nearest tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The rate of flows of water into the tank = 8000 in.³/min.
∴ The volume of the water in the tank after 10 min. = 8000 × 10 = 80000 in.³
∵ The water take the shape of the tank
∴ The height of the water = volume of water ÷ Area of the base of the tank
∵ The tank is cylinder with diameter 128 in. and height 72 in.
∴ The area of the base of the tank = π(128/2)²
∴ The height of the water =
∴ The height of the water = 6.2 in. to the nearest tenth
