By connecting the distances traveled by the jet and the distance between them, we form a right triangle with hypotenuse equal to the unknown distance.
Using the Pythagorean,
h² = a² + b²
Substituting,
h² = (108 mi)² + (214 mi)²
h = 239.71 miles
Thus, the distance between them is approximately 239.71 miles.
<span>Grounding on boats is something like a mystery to most of the people. They think that the factory hooked it up like that and therefore the installation must be correct. But that's something which will not work every time.</span>
Thus if you are grounded aboard a small powerboat then place everybody aboard in the center of the boat and<span> t</span>ry to kedge your boat off the obstruction.
We need to create an equation in order to solve this problem.
Let x = the smallest number
x+1 = next number
x+2 the following number
x+3
x+4
x+5
x+6
So, we add those.
x+x+1+x+2+x+3+x+4+x+5+x+6=105
7x+21=105
7x = 84
x = 12
So the numbers are
12,13,14,15,16,17,18
