use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Earth and the moon.

The Moon Forms A Right Triangle With The Earth And The Sun During One Of Its Phases, As Shown Below:A

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is equal to the distance between the Sun and the Moon multiplied by the sine of angle x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

EM -----> the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

y -----> the distance between the Sun and the Moon.

we know that

In the right triangle of the figure

The sine of angle x is equal to divide the opposite side to angle x (distance between the Earth and the Moon.) by the hypotenuse ( distance between the Sun and the Moon)

so

sin(x)=EM/y

Solve for EM

EM=(y)sin(x)

therefore

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is equal to the distance between the Sun and the Moon multiplied by the sine of angle x

- 7.5x - 1.2y = -2.7
- 1.5x + 1.2y = -3.3​

Answers

Answer:

x = 2/3 , y = -23/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-7.5 x - 1.2 y = -2.7

{1.2 y - 1.5 x = -3.3

In the first equation, look to solve for x:

{-7.5 x - 1.2 y = -2.7

{1.2 y - 1.5 x = -3.3

-7.5 x - 1.2 y = -(15 x)/2 - (6 y)/5 and -2.7 = -27/10:

{-(15 x)/2 - (6 y)/5 = -27/10

Add (6 y)/5 to both sides:

{-(15 x)/2 = 3/10 (4 y - 9)

{1.2 y - 1.5 x = -3.3

Multiply both sides by -2/15:

{x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y)

{1.2 y - 1.5 x = -3.3

Substitute x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y) into the second equation:

{x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y)

{1.2 y - 0.06 (9 - 4 y) = -3.3

1.2 y - 0.06 (9 - 4 y) = 1.2 y + (0.24 y - 0.54) = 1.44 y - 0.54:

{x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y)

{1.44 y - 0.54 = -3.3

In the second equation, look to solve for y:

{x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y)

{1.44 y - 0.54 = -3.3

1.44 y - 0.54 = (36 y)/25 - 27/50 and -3.3 = -33/10:

(36 y)/25 - 27/50 = -33/10

Add 27/50 to both sides:

{x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y)

{(36 y)/25 = -69/25

Multiply both sides by 25/36:

{x = 1/25 (9 - 4 y)

{y = -23/12

Substitute y = -23/12 into the first equation:

Answer: x = 2/3 , y = -23/12

Answer:

x = 2/3  y = -23/12

Step-by-step explanation:

- 7.5x - 1.2y = -2.7

- 1.5x + 1.2y = -3.3​

Add the equations together

- 7.5x - 1.2y = -2.7

- 1.5x + 1.2y = -3.3​

---------------------------

-9x                 = -6

Divide each side by -9

-9x/-9 =-6/-9

x =2/3

Now we need to find y

-1.5 (2/3) +1.2y = -3.3

-1 +1.2y = -3.3

Add 1 to each side

-1+1 +1.2y = -3.3+1

1.2y = -2.3

Divide by 1.2

1.2y/1.2 = -2.3/1.2

y =-23/12

Which one of the numbers does not belong in the following series: 100-50-52-26-28-12-16-8-10

Answers

Answer:

The 12 ( after 28) should be 14.

This 12 does not belong to the series.

Step-by-step explanation:

After every 2 numbers,  2 is added to the last number, so we have 100-50 + 2 = 52 - 26, and the second of the paired numbers is 1/2 of the first.

So after  28 the numbers should be 14 - 16 - 8 - 10.  The 12 does not belong.

Help me find the answer to this piecewise problem!! 20 Points !!!!

Answers

Answer:

So we have x+3 if -3<=x<=-1

and                5   if   -1<=x<=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The one piece from -1 to 1 is horizontal so the line is in the form of y=a number.  It goes through 5 on the y-axis so the equation there is y=5.

From -3 to -1, that is a line with positive slope (since that part is increasing).

Slope=rise/run

We see from the filled in dot to the unfilled in dot that the rise is 2 and the run is 2 so the slope is 2/2=1.

So if we did extend this line where we go at on the y-axis?  It would go through 3 because starting from the unfilled dot and rising 1 and running 1 will get us to the 3 on the y-axis.

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y=mx+b.

We have m=1 and b=3 so the equation is y=1x+3 or just y=x+3.

So we have x+3 if -3<=x<=-1

and                5   if   -1<=x<=1

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+3&,\ \text{if}\ -3\leq x<-1\\5&,\ \text{if}\ -1\leq x\leq1\end{array}\right}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Read coordinates of the two points on the first piece:

(-3, 0) and (-2, 1).

Calculate the slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{1-0}{-2-(-3)}=\dfrac{1}{1}=1[/tex]

Put it and coordinates of the point (-3, 0) to the equation of a line:

[tex]0=1(-3)+b[/tex]

[tex]0=-3+b[/tex]          add 3 to both sides

[tex]3=b\to b=3[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y=x+3}[/tex]

Read coordinates of the two points on the second piece:

(-1, 5) and (1, 5) - second coordinates are the same.

It's a horizontal segment. Therefore the equation is [tex]y=5[/tex]

Answers

Answer: Choice A

3 over 12 multiplied by 7 over 11

(3/12) * (7/11)

=============================================

Explanation:

There are 3 yellow cars out of 2+7+3 = 12 total. The probability of selecting yellow is therefore 3/12. We can reduce this, but the answer choices decide not to, so we'll do the same.

After picking a yellow car, we have 12-1 = 11 left over. The amount of blue cars do not go down (because we haven't selected it yet). There are 7 blue cars out of the 11 total, so the probability of picking blue for this case is 7/11

Multiply the two fractions to get (3/12)*(7/11) which is a shorthand way of writing "3 over 12 multiplied by 7 over 11".

The volume of the stairway is

720 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the stairway is equal to the volume of two rectangular prism

The volume of the rectangular prism is equal to

[tex]V=LWH[/tex]

Find the volume of the larger rectangular prism

we have

[tex]L=6\ in[/tex]

[tex]W=10\ in[/tex]

[tex]H=4+4=8\ in[/tex]

substitute

[tex]V=(6)(10)(8)=480\ in^{3}[/tex]

Find the volume of the smaller rectangular prism

we have

[tex]L=6\ in[/tex]

[tex]W=10\ in[/tex]

substitute

[tex]V=(6)(10)(4)=240\ in^{3}[/tex]

Find the volume of the stairway

Adds the two volumes

[tex]V=480+240=720\ in^{3}[/tex]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the volume of concrete used to create the stairway given in the picture.

Volume of the stairway = volume of small stairway + volume of larger stairway

Dimensions of Large stairway = 10 in × 6 in × (4+4)in

                                                 = 10 in × 6 in × 8 in.

Therefore, volume of large stairway = 480 in³

Dimensions of small stairway = 10 in × 6 in × 4 in

                                                = 240 in³

Total volume = 480 + 240

                     = 720 in³

If ax7yb is a term from the expansion of (x + y)12, describe how to determine its coefficient a and missing exponent b without writing the entire expansion.

Answers

ANSWER

a) Use the homogeneous property of the binomial expansion to find the missing exponent

b) Use the binomial theorem to find the coefficient

EXPLANATION

The given binomial expansion is:

[tex](x+y)^{12} [/tex]

When we compare this to

[tex](a + b) ^{n} [/tex]

We have

[tex]n = 12[/tex]

Therefore the of each term in the expansion must be 12.

[tex] \implies \: 7 + b = 12[/tex]

[tex]b = 12 - 7[/tex]

[tex]b = 5[/tex]

Since the coefficient of x and y are unity, we use the formula

[tex]^{n} C_r = \frac{n!}{(n - r)!r!} [/tex]

to find the coefficient.

Where n=12 and r=5(the exponent of the y-term).

Therefore the coefficient is

[tex]^{12} C_5= \frac{12!}{(12- 5)!5!} [/tex]

[tex]^{12} C_5= \frac{12!}{7!5!} [/tex]

[tex]^{12} C_5= \frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7!}{7! \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} [/tex]

When we simplify further we get:

[tex]^{12} C_5= 11 \times 9 \times 8 = 792[/tex]

B.The number of houseboats that can be rented for 15 days

C.The number of dollars it costs to rent the houseboat for 15 days.

D.The number of days the houseboat can be rented for a cost of $150​

Answers

Answer:

C.The number of dollars it costs to rent the houseboatfor 15 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) - total cost in dollars, for renting a houseboat for x days.

f(15) → x = 15 - number of days

f(x) = 15 + 150x → f(15) = 15 + 150(15) = 2,265 - total cost in dollars for 15 days

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

f(x) = 15+150x

Here, x represents the number of days,

f(x) represents the total cost.

If we calculate f(15), we get that

[tex]f(15)=15+150\times 15\\\\f(15)=15+2250\\\\f(15)=2265[/tex]

$2265 is the cost for 15 days.

So, it shows the number of dollars it costs to rent the houseboat for 15 days.

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.

Part B: There's a graph I made below.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use proportions to answer this question. The bar graph is 10 cm total, therefore it is proportional to the 30 friends that Yakob has in total. After that, you can make proportions out of the data in the chart. For example, History is 2 cm out of the 10 cm total. Think proportions! You had to multiply 3 to 10 to get 30, so you have to apply the same thing to the numerator. In this case, multiply 3 to 2 and you'll get 6. 2/10=6/30! I repeated that for the rest and put it into a graph. The prompt wanted you to combine English and Science, so I did that after separately making their proportions. Hope this helps!


Sarah needs 10 feet of fabric for a project she is working on, but the store only sells the fabric in meters. One meter of fabric costs $1.50. How much will the fabric
cost?
[1 ft = 0.305 m]

A.$49.18
B.$2.03
C.$21.86
D.$4.58​

Answers

Hello!

The answer is:

The fabric will cost $4.58

D.$4.58

Why?

Since it's a conversion exercise, we need to pay special attention to the conversion procedure.

From the statement we know that:

[tex]1ft=0.305m[/tex]

So, if she needs 10 feet of fabric, we need to convert it to meters, and then, calculate its cost.

We have that:

[tex]10*1ft=10*0.305m\\\\10ft=3.05m[/tex]

Now, we have that each meter of fabric cost $1.50, so, 3.05m of fabric will cost:

[tex]\frac{1m}{1.50(dollars)}=\frac{3.05m}{cost}\\\\cost=\frac{3.05m*1.50(dollars)}{1m}=4.575(dollars)=4.58(dollars)[/tex]

Hence, we have that the cost of the fabric will be $4.58.

The correct option is: D.$4.58​

Have a nice day!

Answer:

Sarah will need $4.58 for the fabric. therefor, your answer will be...

The ratio of cats to dogs at the pet store is 2:3. There are 14 cats. How many dogs are there at the pet store?

Answers

Answer:

21 dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

In your question, we need to find how many dogs are in the store.

To find the answer to your question, we would need to use the information given in the question

Given Information:

Ratio of cats to dogs (respectively) is 2:3

There are 14 cats

With the information above, we can solve the question.

We know that there are 2 cats for every 3 dogs.

The question says that there are 14 cats.

We need to change the amount of cats there are in the ratio.

We would multiply 2 by 7 to fit the story, due to the fact that 2 times 7 makes 14.

Whatever you do to the left, you would do to the right. This means that you would multiply 3 by 7.

2   :   3

×7     ×7

14   :   21

When you multiply, you should get 21. This means that there are 21 dogs at the pet store when there are 14 cats.

I hope this helps you out.Good luck on your academics.Have a fantastic day!

There are 21 dogs at the pet store.

To find how many dogs are at the pet store, use the given ratio of cats to dogs and the number of cats. Apply the ratio to determine the number of dogs. There are 21 dogs at the pet store.

To find the number of dogs at the pet store, you can use the ratio of cats to dogs, which is 2:3.

Since there are 14 cats, first determine the number of parts in the ratio that represent cats. In this case, each part represents 14/2 = 7 cats.Next, calculate the number of parts representing dogs by multiplying the number of parts representing cats by the part of dogs in the ratio. 7 parts * 3 (for dogs) = 21 dogs.

Therefore, there are 21 dogs at the pet store.

r ≤ 29, r-5, The sale price can be compared with the regular price, r-5 ≤ 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount to spend = $24Regular price = rSale = $5Sale Price = r-5

The regular price will be at most $5 more than the amount Roopesh has to spend.

The sale price will be $24 or less than that for Roopesh to afford.

Inequality for regular price :

r-5 ≤ 24

r ≤ 29

Therefore, the product Roopesh can afford is $29 or less than that.

What is the unknown? r ≤ 29Which expression can represent the sale price? Sale price = r-5 (mentioned above)Which comparison could be used? The sale price can be compared with the regular priceWhich inequality represents the situation? r-5 ≤ 24

The owner of a 4000-gal oil truck loads the truck with gasoline and keroseno. The profit on each gallon of gasoline is 16e and on each gallon of kerosene it is 12¢. How many gallons of each fuel did the owner load it
the profit was $620?

There were___
gallons of gasoline and
___gallons of kerosene.

Answers

Answer:

There were 35 gallons of gasoline and 500 gallons of kerosene.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write data for equation 1

Let gallons of kerosene be x

Let gallons of gasoline be y

Total capacity of truck is 4000

Step 2: Form equation 1

x + y = 4000

Step 3: Write data for equation 2

Profit of total gallons of kerosene is 0.12x

Profit of total gallons of gasoline is 16y

Total profit is $620

Step 4: Form equation 2

0.12x + 16y = 620

Step 5: Find x in terms of y from equation 1

x + y = 4000

x = 4000 - y

Step 6: Substitute value of x in equation 2

0.12x + 16y = 620

0.12 (4000 - y) + 16y = 620

480 - 12y + 16y = 620

4y = 620 - 480

y = 140/4

y = 35

Step 7: Substitute value of y in equation 1 to find x

0.12x + 16y = 620

0.12x + 16 ( 35 ) = 620

0.12x = 60

x = 500

There were 35 gallons of gasoline and 500 gallons of kerosene.

Final answer:

The owner loaded 3500 gallons of gasoline and 500 gallons of kerosene into the 4000-gal oil truck to achieve a profit of $620, by setting up a system of linear equations and solving for both variables.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use a system of equations to find out how many gallons of gasoline and kerosene were loaded into the truck. Let's denote gasoline as G and kerosene as K. We know that the total volume of the truck is 4000 gallons, so:

G + K = 4000

Next, considering the profit per gallon, 16e represents 16 cents for gasoline and 12 cents for kerosene. If the total profit is $620, then:

0.16G + 0.12K = 620

To solve this system of equations, we can multiply the second equation by 100 to eliminate the decimals:

16G + 12K = 62000

Now solve one of the equations for a variable, for example:

K = 4000 - G

Substitute K in the profit equation:

16G + 12(4000 - G) = 62000

16G + 48000 - 12G = 62000

4G = 14000

G = 3500

So, we have 3500 gallons of gasoline. Substitute G back into the equation K = 4000 - G:

K = 4000 - 3500

K = 500

Therefore, there were 3500 gallons of gasoline and 500 gallons of kerosene.

The variable z is inversely proportional to x. When x is 4, z has the value 3.25. What is the value of z when x= 11? Round to at least the thousandths place if needed.

Answers

Answer:

1.182

Step-by-step explanation:

z is inversely proportional to x:

z = k / x

A circle has a radius of 20 inches. Find the length of the arc intercepted by a central angle of 45°. Leave answers in terms of π.

Answers

central angle/360 = arc length/2pi•r

Let π = pi

Let A = length of intercepted arc

45/360 = A/2(20)π

1/8 = A/40π

8A = 40π

A = 40π/8

A = 5π

Did you follow?

Answer:

The length of the arc is 5π inches

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the relation between the central angle and its

 intercepted arc

- If the vertex of an angle is the center of the circle and the two sides

 of the angle are radii in the circle, then this angle is called  a

 central angle

- Each central angle subtended by the opposite arc, the name of the

 arc is the starting point and the ending point of the angle

- There is a relation between the central angle and its  subtended arc

 the measure of the central angle equals half the measure of its

 subtended arc

- The length of the subtended arc depends on the measure of its

 central angle and the length of the radius and the measure of the arc

- The measure of the circle is 360°

- The length of the circle is 2πr

- The length of the arc = central angle/360 × 2πr

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ The radius of the circle r = 20 inches

∵ The measure of the central angle is 45°

∵ The length of the arc = central angle/360 × 2πr

∴ The length of the arc = 45°/360° × 2 × π × 20 = 5π

* The length of the arc is 5π inches
