I found this!!!!
The scientist can use these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.
- The scientist can substitute these measurements into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}cosα=
hypotenuse
adjacent
and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star (which would be the hypotenuse of the righ triangle).
Step-by-step explanation:
You can observe in the figure attached that "AC" is the distance between the Sun and the shooting star.
Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Sun "y" and the angle x°, the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.
This is:
cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}cosα=
hypotenuse
adjacent
In this case:
\begin{gathered}\alpha=x\°\\\\adjacent=BC=y\\\\hypotenuse=AC\end{gathered}
α=x\°
adjacent=BC=y
hypotenuse=AC
Therefore, the scientist can substitute these measurements into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}cosα=
hypotenuse
adjacent
, and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star "AC":
cos(x\°)=\frac{y}{AC}cos(x\°)=
AC
y
AC=\frac{y}{cos(x\°)}AC=
cos(x\°)
y
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
First, factor the original expression:
As we can see, D is the same as above. Eliminate D.
Go through each of the answer choices.
A:
This is equivalent to what we factored. Eliminate A.
B:
This is again equivalent to what we factored. Eliminate B.
C:
This cannot be simplified and it is not equivalent to what we have previously. C is not the equivalent expression.
The greatest number he can spend on is $5 since he has $10 he will have $5 reamining.
A ray is a defined term because it has no width or depth is described using an undefined term has an informal definition travels forever in one way
Ur basically looking for the common multiple of the numbers 8,9,12,and 15.
LCM of these numbers is 360.
so 360 minutes = (360/60) = 6 hrs
and 6 hrs from 3 p.m. would be : 9 p.m. <== ur answer
