Given the speed of light and the distance from earth to sun, the time taken for the sunlight to reach earth is 8.3167 units.

<h3>How long does it take for the sunlight to reach earth?</h3>

Speed is simply referred to as distance traveled per unit time, it is expressed mathematically as;

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Given the data in the question;

  • Speed = 11,176,920
  • Distance = 92,955,807
  • Time = ?

To determine how long it takes for the sunlight to reach earth, plug the given values into the equation above and solve for time.

Speed = Distance ÷ time

11,176,920 = 92,955,807 ÷ time

Time = 92,955,807 ÷ 11,176,920

Time = 8.3167 units

Given the speed of light and the distance from earth to sun, the time taken for the sunlight to reach earth is 8.3167 units.

Sarah bought 18 boxes of 65 pens at $12 a box. She sold 378 of them at 3 for $1.00 and the rest at 4 for $1.00. Find her total p
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

$108

Step-by-step explanation:

1 box = $12

18 boxes = 12×18 = $216

Total = 18×65 = 1170 pens

Cost price, Cp = $216

3 = $1

378 = 378/3 = $126

1170-378= 792 pens remaining

4 = $1

792 = 792/4 = $198

Total selling price, sp = 126+198 = $324

Profit = Sp - Cp = 324 - 216 = $108
