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?

Answers

Answer 1

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.

slope is 1/2 (change in y/change in x) y intercept is 2 (where the line crosses the y axis) so the equation is y=1/2x+2

Answer:

The y-intercept is 2 and the slope is 1/2. So the equation is y = 1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is where the line starts on the y-axis. For the slope to the next point on the line you have to move 2 units to the right and 1 unit up. When writing the slope as a fraction, you always put how far you move up or down above how far you move to the right or left.

How can you determine the number of solutions of a system of linear equations by inspecting its equations?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To find - How can you determine the number of solutions of a system

              of linear equations by inspecting its equations?

Proof -

There exists three types of solution for a system of linear equations.

1. No solution.

2. Unique solution.

3. Infinite many solutions.

Now,

Let the 2 linear equations are as follows :

y = ax + b

y = cx + d

1. For no solution -

a = c and b ≠d

For example-

y = -2x + 5

y = -2x  - 1

Subtract first equation from second , we get

y - y = -2x - 1 - ( -2x + 5)

⇒0 = -2x - 1 + 2x - 5

⇒0 = -6

Not possible

So, There exist no solution.

2. For unique solution -

a ≠ c and b , d can be any value

For example -

If b and d are same ,

y = 2x - 4

y = -3x - 4

Subtract equation 1st from 2nd , we get

y - y = -3x - 4 - ( 2x - 4)

⇒0 = -3x - 4 - 2x + 4

⇒0 = -5x

⇒x = 0

⇒y = 2(0) - 4 = -4

∴ we get

x = 0, y = -4

If b and d are different

y = 2x - 4

y = -3x + 5

Subtract equation 1st from second

y - y = -3x + 5 - 2x + 4

⇒0 = -5x + 9

⇒-5x = -9

⇒x = [tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex]

⇒y =2([tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex]) - 4 = [tex]\frac{18}{5} - 4 = \frac{18 - 20}{5} = -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

∴ we get

x = [tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex] , y = [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

3. Infinitely many solution -

a = c and b = d

For example -

y = -4x + 1

y = -4x + 1

Subtract equation first from equation second

y - y = -4x + 1 - ( -4x + 1)

⇒0 = -4x + 1 + 4x - 1

⇒0 = 0

Satisfied

So, Infinite many solution possible.

Write the expression in repeated multiplication form. Then write the expression as a power. (-8)^3*(-8)^4 The expression in repeated multiplication form is... can someone help me im kinda confused

Answers

Given:

The expression is

[tex](-8)^3\cdot (-8)^4[/tex]

To find:

The expression in repeated multiplication form and then write the expression as a power.

Solution:

We have,

[tex](-8)^3\cdot (-8)^4[/tex]

The repeated multiplication form of this expression is

[tex]=[(-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)]\cdot [(-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)][/tex]

[tex]=(-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)[/tex]

Clearly, (-8) is multiplied seven times by itself. So,

[tex]=(-8)^7[/tex]

Therefore, the repeated multiplication form of the given expression is [tex](-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)\cdot (-8)[/tex] and the expression as single power is [tex](-8)^7[/tex].

Canarie Manufacturing produces snow shovels. The selling price per snow shovel is $29.00. There is no beginning inventory. Costs involved in production are: Direct material $4.00 Direct labor 4.00 Variable manufacturing overhead 3.00 Total variable manufacturing costs per unit $11.00 Fixed manufacturing overhead per year $233,550 In addition, the company has fixed selling and administrative costs of $162,400 per year. During the year, Canarie produces 51,900 snow shovels and sells 46,500 snow shovels. Exercise 5.11 What is the value of ending inventory using full costing? Value of ending inventory

Answers

Answer:

Value of ending inventory = $97,650

Step-by-step explanation:

Full costing is a costing method that consider all the costs including all variable and fixed costs in determining the cost of producing products or services.

From the question, we have the following:

Total variable manufacturing costs per unit = $11.00

Fixed manufacturing overhead per year = $233,550

Number of snow shovels produced during the year = 51,900

Number of snow shovels sold during the year = 46,500

Therefore, we have:

Total variable manufacturing costs incurred during the year = Total variable manufacturing costs per unit * Number of shovels produced during the year = $11.00 * 51,900 = $570,900

Based on full costing, we have:

Total cost of producing snow shovel during the year = Fixed manufacturing overhead per year + Total variable manufacturing costs incurred during the year = $233,550 + $570,900 = $804,450

Production cost per unit = Total cost of producing snow shovel during the year / Number of snow shovels produced during the year = $804,450 / 51,900 = $15.50

Number of ending inventory = Number of snow shovels produced during the year - Number of snow shovels sold during the year = 51,900 - 46,500 = 6,300

Value of ending inventory = Number of ending inventory * Production cost per unit = 6,300 * $15.50 = $97,650
