The equation t^3=a^2 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun, A

, in astronomical units, AU. If the orbital period of planet Y is twice the orbital period of planet X, by what factor is the mean distance increased?

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 ...

Use the "at least once" rule to find the probability of getting at least one 2 in four rolls of a single fair die.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Probability of getting at least one 2 equals 0.5177

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of at least one success is

P=1-(1-p)^{n}

where,

'p' is probability of success of 1 trail

'n' is number of events

We have probability of getting 2 is 1/6 thus 'p' = 1/6

Applying values we get

P=1-(1-\frac{1}{6})^{4}\\\\P= 0.51177

Could 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 and 6, 10, 12 be the corresponding sides of two similar triangles
boyakko [2]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal then they would be the sides of 2 similar triangles.

Calculate the ratio of corresponding sides.

\frac{6}{1.5} = 4

\frac{10}{2.5} = 4

\frac{12}{3.5} ≠ 4

Thus the sides are not the corresponding sides of similar triangles.
