Bearings Problem Solving Question:
From a lighthouse two boats can be sighted. Boat 1 on a bearing of 60° at a distance of 2km and Boat 2 on a bearing of 340° at a distance of 3km.
a) If Boat 1 is in need of assistance, what bearing would Boat 2 need to travel on to reach it?
b) Assuming Boat 1 does not move, how far would Boat 2 have to travel?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
a) 123.4°
b) 3.3 km
Step-by-step explanation:
In (N, E) coordinates, Boat 1 is located relative to the lighthouse at ...
2(cos(60°), sin(60°)) = (1.0, 1.732) . . . . . km
Boat 2 is located at ...
3(cost(340°), sin(340°)) = (2.819, -1.026) . . . . . km
So, relative to Boat 2, Boat 1 is located at ...
(1, 1.732) -(2.819, -1.026) = (-1.819, 2.758) . . . . . km
This is at a bearing of ...
arctan(2.758/-1.819) = 123.4°
and a distance of ...
√(1.819² +2.758²) ≈ 3.304 . . . . . km
a) Boat 2 would need to travel on a bearing of 123.4°.
b) Boat 2 would need to travel 3.3 km.

Additional comment
We use (North, East) coordinates so we don't have to do the mental gyrations necessary to translate to and from (E, N) coordinates. The latter would correctly orient a map relative to the X-Y Cartesian plane. The former are equivalent to flipping the map over and looking at it from the back side. This is a "rigid transformation", so angles and distances remain unchanged.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (10, 2) and (19, 14) ?
Answer:
4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{14-2}{19-10}\\\\=\frac{12}{9}\\\\= \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

The difference between three times a number and the sum of twelve squared plus ninety-two equals five hundred fourteen.
Answer:
Number = 250
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = "a number"
Difference means subtraction:
3x - (12^2 + 92) = 514
3x = "three times a number"
12^2 + 92 = "the sum of twelve squared and ninety two"
Solve from there.

Can someone just explain to me how to find “u” Thanks!
Answer:
u = 4 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find u using sin
[tex]sin(x) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]sin(30)=\frac{u}{8}[/tex]
[tex]8*sin(30)=u[/tex]
Step 2: Plug into a calculator
[tex]8*sin(30)=u[/tex]
[tex]8 * \frac{1}{2} = u[/tex]
[tex]4 = u[/tex]
Answer: u = 4 yards
1. If you multiply 6 by 1/4 will your answer be greater or less than 6. How do you know?
Answer:
less than 6
Step-by-step explanation:
when you multiply a number by a fraction less than 1 you are calculating a portion of that number so you get a result smaller.

A local bakery sells cupcakes for $3.50 each. The fixed monthly cost totals $275 which includes rent, utilities, and wages. Each cupcake costs the bakery 0.90 to make.
Answer: 110 cupcakes
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this question is asking for the breakeven point, you can find that by using the formula:
= Fixed cost / Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Sales price - variable cost (amount to make one cupcake)
= 3.50 - 0.90
= $2.60
Breakeven point = 275 / 2.60
= 109.77
= 110 cupcakes

At 7:00 am, the temperature was -4℉. At 9:00 am, it was 8° warmer. What was the temperature at 9:00 am? *
4℉.
What we know about Degrees is that there is a Positive type and a negative type.
(i.e: 30℉ is positive and -30℉ is negative.)
If the temperature was -4℉ at 7AM, then it is negative. If it goes up by an amount that is more than 4 then that negative will go up to a positive temperature. In this case: At 9AM it was 8° warmer.
Warmer is a keyword. If it is warmer by an amount, Negative temperatures will go up to a positive and positive temperature will just go up. If it gets cooler, negative temperatures will go down further and positive temperatures will go down to a negative.
So lets work out this problem with our newfound knowledge.
-4° F at 7AM
8° warmer at 9AM
-4 + 8 = 4.
The temperature was 4° at 9AM.

4(x+4)+2x=52 please help lol
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 4(x+4)+2x=52
Distribute.
4x + 16 + 2x = 52.
Simplify.
6x + 16 = 52.
Subtract 16 on both sides to isolate out the variable.
6x = 36
Divide.
x = 6
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
first we distribute the 4 to the (x + 4) by multiplying 4 times each of those
4x + 16 + 2x = 52
Then, combine like terms:
6x + 16 = 52
then subtract 16 from both sides of your equation
6x = 36
then divide both sides by 6
x = 6
