Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

The first thing you have to do is convert km to miles

Formula

1 mile = 1.6 km

x mile = 40000 km              Cross Multiply

Solution

1.6*x = 1 * 40000                  Divide by 1.6

x = 40000/1.6

x = 25000 miles

             

Answer Part 1

The distance covered is 25000 miles

Discussion Part 2

That's the distance covered in a day. Now we need to convert that to speed. The time (in hours) for 1 day is 24 hours.

Givens

d = 25000 miles

t = 24 hours

s = ?

Solution

s = d/t

s = 25000 / 24

s = <u>1041.66 </u> miles per hour

Answer: 1041.66 is what is to be entered as your answer

If z=3−5i, find |z|.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of z is the distance between the point graphed from the complex number and the origin on a complex plane.  In a complex plane, the x axis is replaced by R, real numbers, and the y axis is replaced by i, the complex part of the complex number.  Our real number is positive 3 and the complex number is -5, so we go to the right 3 and then down 5 and make a point.  Connect that point to the origin and then connect the point to the x axis at 3 to construct a right triangle that has a base of 3 and a length of -5.  To find the distance of the point to the origin is to find the length of the hypotenuse of that right triangle using Pythagorean's Theorem.  Therefore:

|z|=\sqrt{(3)^2+(-5)^2} and

|z|=\sqrt{9+25} and

|z|=\sqrt{34}

Please help me out with this!
olganol [36]
A. y-intercept

B. The slope is 3/4, the y-intercept is 0

C. For this one you need to put it in y-intercept form. So, you subtract 2x, and move it over to 12. The equation would look like 6y = 2x + 12.

Then, divide everything by 6, and the equation would look like: y = 2/6x + 2

Thus, the slope is 2/6x and 2 is the y-intercept.
