A ship leaves port at noon and has a bearing of S 24° W. The ship sails at 20 knots. At 6:00 P. M., the ship changes course to due west. a. How many nautical miles south and how many nautical miles west will the ship have traveled by 6:00 P. M.?
b. Find the ship's bearing and distance from the port of departure at 7:00 P. M.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 28 nautical miles

answer: 180

step-by-step explanation:

12-2=10

20-2=18

10x18=180

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
