A clap of thunder is recorded at two weather stations that are 2 miles apart. Station A recorded the sound 3 seconds before station B. Since 1 mile is 5,280 feet and assuming sound travels at 1,100 feet per second, which equation can be used to determine the location of the thunder?

The correct option is (C)

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical expression that contains an equals symbol.

Given:

Sound travels= 1100 feet per second

Stations are 2 miles apart from each other, i.e., 10560 feet.

Using,

x²/a² + y²/b²=1

So, 2c= 10560

c=5280

and, 2c-2a +3300 = 10560

2a= 3300

a= 1650

So, b²= c² - a²= 25155900

x²/2722500 + y²/25155900=1
