Two cruise ships leave the same port with a 35° angle between their path. Cruise A is traveling at 18 miles per hour and Cruise B is traveling at 15 miles per hour. If they travel in a straight path, find the distance between the cruise ships after 2 hours

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]20\:\mathrm{miles}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

After travelling two hours, the two cruise ships form a triangle. One of the legs  of this triangle will be the distance Cruise A travelled, and another will be the distance Cruise B travelled. We can find the distance they travel using:

[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}, d=s\cdot t[/tex]

Cruise A is travelling at 18 miles per hour for 2 hours. Therefore, Cruise A has travelled:

[tex]d=s\cdot t=18\cdot 2=36\:\mathrm{miles}[/tex]

Cruise B is travelling at 15 miles per hour for 2 hours. Therefore, Cruise B has travelled:

[tex]d=s\cdot t=15\cdot 2=30\:\mathrm{miles}[/tex]

Because we are given the angle between these legs, we can use the Law of Cosines to find the third leg. The Law of Cosines is given by:

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos C[/tex], where [tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex], and [tex]c[/tex] are interchangeable. Let [tex]c[/tex] represent the distance between the two cruises. We have:

[tex]c^2=36^2+30^2-2\cdot36\cdot30\cdot \cos 35^{\circ},\\c^2=426.63,\\c\approx \fbox{$20\:\mathrm{miles}$}[/tex](one significant figure).

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  20.7 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance that A travels in the same direction as B is ...

  (18 mi/h)(2 h)cos(35°) = 29.489 mi

So, the difference in distances in that direction is ...

  (15 mi/h)(2 h) -29.489 mi = 0.511 mi

__

The distance A travels in the direction perpendicular to B is ...

  (18 mi/h)(2 h)sin(35°) = 20.649 mi

So, the straight-line distance between the ships is the hypotenuse of the right triangle with these distances as legs:

  AB = √(0.511² +20.649²) = √426.632 . . . miles

  AB = 20.655 miles ≈ 20.7 miles . . . separation after 2 hours

4) false,

5) r≤0.1

6) y≤0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Divide both sides by -3.2.

−3.2a/-3.2 ≤ 8/-3.2

2) Flip the equation

- n+0.8<2

Subtract 0.8 from the sides

n+0.8−0.8<2−0.8

3) Add 4.2 to both sides.

b−4.2+4.2≥−5+4.2

4) inequality cannot be solved

5) Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−r+5.1≥5

Subtract 5.1 from both sides.

−r+5.1−5.1≥5−5.1

−r≥−0.1

Divide both sides by -1.

-r/-1 ≥ -0.1/-1

6) Flip the equation.

−1.8y≥−1.44

Divide both sides by -1.8.

−1.8y/−1.8 ≥ −1.44/−1.8

There were 96 students and 34 adults at the concert. If 65% of the seats were filled, how many seats are in the auditoriom? Round your answer to the nearest whole percent

Answers

Answer: 200 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 96 students and 34 adults in a concert. The total number of people present is therefore:

= 96 + 34

= 130 people

These 130 people only fill 65% of the seats. Assume the total number of seats is x:

130 = 65% * x

x = 130/65%

x = 200 seats
