If planet Y is k times the mean distance from the sun than planet X, the right side of the equation becomes (kA)^3. which is k^3 times the left side, T^2. To equate both sides of the equation, multiply T by k^3/2 so that the left side becomes ((k^3/2) x T)^2 which simplifies into (k^3) x (T^2). Therefore, the answer is k^3/2.

Answer:

Given the equation:

T^2 =A^3

shows the relationship between a planet's orbital period T and the planet's mean distance from the sun, A in Astronomical units

then:

For planet X:

Orbital period is:

T_{X} = (A)^{\frac{3}{2}}            .....[1]

As per the statement:

If planet Y is k times the mean distance from the sun as planet X.

⇒ A planet Y= kA mean distance from the sun as planet X.

then orbital period of Planet Y is:

T_{Y} = (kA)^{\frac{3}{2}}=k^{\frac{3}{2}}\cdot (A)^{\frac{3}{2}}    ....[2]

Divide equation [2] by [1] we have;

\frac{T_{Y}}{T_{X}} = \frac{k^{\frac{3}{2}}\cdot (A)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{A^{\frac{3}{2}}}

Simplify:

\frac{T_{Y}}{T_{X}} =k^{\frac{3}{2}}

or

T_{Y} =k^\frac{3}{2} T_X

Therefore, the orbital period is increased by factor k^\frac{3}{2}

Solve for x. 8(9x-4)-2=3+2
gavmur [86]
So first you have to move the -2 over to the opposite side.
8(9x-4)=3+2+2
Then you can simplify the right side 
8(9x-4)=7
Then you distribute
8*9x=72x
8*-4=-32
so now you have...
72x-32=7
Then you move the 37 over
72x=39
Then you divide by 72 to isolate x
x=39/72 or x= 13/24 or <span>x=0.54167</span>

If s(x)=x-7 and t(x) =4x^2+3 which expression is equivalent to (t×s)(x)​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

\large\boxed{(t\times s)(x)=4x^3-28x^2+3x-21}

Step-by-step explanation:

s(x)=x-7\\t(x)=4x^2+3\\\\(t\times s)(x)=t(x)\times s(x)\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\(t\times s)(x)=(4x^2+3)(x-7)\\\\\text{use FOIL:}\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\(t\times s)(x)=(4x^2)(x)+(4x^2)(-7)+(3)(x)+(3)(-7)\\\\=4x^3-28x^2+3x-21

Which of the following statements are true ? Check all that apply
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Options A) and E)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use Ruffini's method for polynomials, you can find the roots.

The given picture shows us the first root of the polynomial 5x^{2}-16x+12=0 wich is 2.

Thus, the original polynomial can be written as

(x-2)*(5x-6)=0

Here, you can notice that (x-2) is a factor
