A ship in the Atlantic Ocean measures its position to be 29°27' north latitude. Another ship is reported to be due north of the first ship at 41°17' north latitude. Approximately how far apart are
the two ships? Round to the nearest mile. Assume that the radius of Earth is 3960 miles.
A) 818 mi
B) 838 mi
C) 46,860 mi
D) 46,880 mi

answer: b.

step-by-step explanation:

the y coordinate for point b is 0, and answer b is the only one with that y coordinate.

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

step-by-step explanation:

formula

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

let the line segment ab with a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2)

a point(x,y) divide ab in the ratio, 2: 3 the x coordinate can be written as

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

here p=2 and w = 2+3

therefore,

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

similarly y coordinate y = y1 + 2/5(y2 - y1)

step-by-step explanation:

answer: 12x^2+6x

step-by-step explanation:

6x does not equal 24x. hope it works!
