Two trucks leave a warehouse at the same time. One travels north at an average speed of 58miles per hour, and the other travels south at an average speed of 64miles per hour. After how many hours will the two trucks be 488 miles apart?

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

After 4 hours, the north-bound truck will have traveled 232 miles and the south-bound truck will have traveled 256 miles.  232 + 256 = 488 miles.

i'm assuming it's looking for the missing length, which should be 4cm

hope this !

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
