Aship travels 200 miles due west, then adjusts its course 30° north of west. the ship continues on this course for 30 miles. approximately how far is the ship from where it began?
103.1 mi.
174.7 mi.
214.7 mi.
226.5 mi.

I went to verify the answer, cuz I thought the other answer that was given above was wrong. However, it is very correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not 174.7, and is 226.5

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

answer: .64

step-by-step explanation

set up the formula for standard deviation for this set of numbers, then simplify
