The tee for the fifth hole on a golf course is 375 yards from the tee. On that hole, Marsha hooked her ball to the left, as sketched below. Find the distance between Marsha’s ball and the hole to the nearest tenth of a yard.

158.73 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

A picture of the situation is needed, investigating I could find a related one, in the same way the important thing is the solution, the data can be exchanged. I attach the drawing.

Let use the formula of the law of cosine:

c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 - 2 * a * b * cos C, to solve the problem

Let the third side be c, we replace:

c ^ 2 = 375 ^ 2 + 240 ^ 2 - 2 * 375 * 240 * cos 16 °

c ^ 2 = 198225 - 173027.10

c ^ 2 = 25197.9

c = 158.73

So the distance is 158.73 yd

location: point 0

step-by-step explanation:

well, -8 to 10 on a number line is 18 spaces.

1/9 of 18 is 2.

so, 4/9 of 18 must be 8.

8 spaces from -8 (a) is 0.

so, 4/9 of the way from -8 to 10 is 0!
