Answer:

     2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the relationship of interest by solving the given equation for A, the mean distance.

<h3>Solve for A</h3>

  T^3=A^2\\\\A=\sqrt{T^3}=T\sqrt{T}\qquad\text{take the square root}

<h3>Substitute values</h3>

The mean distance of planet X is found in terms of its period to be ...

  D_x=T_x\sqrt{T_x}

The mean distance of planet Y can be found using the given relation ...

  T_y=2T_x\\\\D_y=T_y\sqrt{T_y}=2T_x\sqrt{2T_x}=(2\sqrt{2})T_x\sqrt{T_x}\\\\D_y=2\sqrt{2}\cdot D_x

The mean distance of planet Y is increased from that of planet X by the factor ...

  2√2

Before leaving to visit Mexico, levant traded 270 american dollars and received 3000 mexican pesos. When he returned from mexico
Makovka662 [10]
Levant will receive about 9 american dollars when he exchanges his pesos.

According to this question, 1 american dollar is worth about 11 pesos. In order to find that, you need to divide 3000/270 which gives you around 11. In order to find out how many dollars he will receive for his pesos, you need to divide 100 by 11 which gives you about 9 dollars.
