I'd suggest you sketch this situation. If you did, you'd likely see right away that the shortest distance back to the starting point would be the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose legs are of lengths 5 miles and 12 miles.
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this.
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle ABD = Angle CBD + Angle ABC
You know ABD is 70, CBD and ABC are in terms of x
70 = 5x + 13 + 3x + 33
70 - 13 - 33 = 8x
24 = 8x
3 = x
Replacing x in Angle ABC:
3 * 3 + 33 = 42
180 - 149 = 31
x/100 *149 = 31
1.49x = 31
x= 31/1.46 = 20.81 %
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
9= 3*3
42=3*7*2
Answer:
1/2(2x-6)= -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the two sides by the equation 2
2x-6=12
move the constant to the right hand side change sign
2x = -12 + 6
calculate the sum
2x= -6
Divide the 2 sides by 2
x= -3
