To address this issue, the procedure below should be utilized:
1- The Law of sines can be applied as follows:
The unknown angle can be determined by: 180°-65°-45°=70°
- The <span>distance Jake travels to the store is:
30/Sin(70°)=x/Sin(45°)
x=22.57
- The distance Maddie travels to the store is:
</span>30/Sin(70°)=y/Sin(65°)
<span> y=28.93
- The difference calculated is: 6.36
Thus, the result shows that the difference is 6.36 m.</span>
Having no profit indicates that P(x)=0: x³-4x²+3x-12=0
factor this by regrouping: x²(x-4)+3(x-4)=0
extract (x-4): (x-4)(x²+3)=0
thus, x=4 or x²=-3
since x² cannot be negative, the only viable solution is x=4.
