Answer from: Downfall

The distance from ship B to the submarine is 1270.68 feet and the distance from ship A to the submarine is 1084.18 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance between Ships A and B = 1425 feet

Angle of depression from ship A to the submarine =59°

Angle of depression from ship B to the submarine = 47°

As shown in the figure below:

Remaining angle will be

$180\textdegree-(47\textdegree+59\textdegree)\\\\=180\textdegree-106\textdegree\\\\=74\textdegree$

So, we will use "Sine formula ":

$\frac{\sin 74\textdegree}{1425}=\frac{\sin 59\textdegree}{B}\\\\B=\frac{1425\times \sin 59\textdegree}{\sin 74\textdegree}\\\\B=1270.68\ feet$

Similarly,

$\frac{\sin 74\textdegree}{1425}=\frac{\sin 47\textdegree}{A}\\\\A=\frac{1425\times \sin 47\textdegree}{\sin 74\textdegree}\\\\A=1084.18\ feet$

Hence, the distance from ship B to the submarine is 1270.68 feet and the distance from ship A to the submarine is 1084.18 feet.

Answer from: Quest

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity". that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both. the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. this has important considerations for the human body's comfort. when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature. evaporation is a cooling process. when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature. when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases. in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions. the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases. the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions. there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).

step-by-step explanation:

75% of the temperatures are below what value? how do you know? 75% of the temperatures are above w

No he does not because he can only cover 12 square feet from 15 square feet which he will still need 3 more. this is because if 3×5=15 square feet and 15-12=3 which thats the answer

Someone answer this asap rn for ! a discount store’s prices are 25% lower than department store prices. the function c(x) = 0.75x can be used to determine the cost c, in dollars, of an item, where x is the department store price, in dollars. if the item has not sold in one month, the discount store takes an additional 20% off the discounted price and an additional $5 off the total purchase. the function d(y) = 0.80y - 5 can be used to find d, the cost, in dollars, of an item that has not been sold for a month, where y is the discount store price, in dollars. create a function d(c(x)) that represents the final price of an item when a costumer buys an item that has been in the discount store for a month. d(c(x)) =
