Answer:

1150 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for Average Speed is given as = Distance in Kilometers/ Time in Hours

In the question we are given the following parameters.

The length of a planet's orbit around a star = Distance = 17,650,000 km.

Time taken to complete a full orbit = 640 Earth days

Step 1

We need to convert the time in days to hours

1 Earth day = 24 hours

640 Earth days =

We cross multiply

640 Earth days × 24 hours

= 15360 hours.

Step 2

Average Speed = Distance in Kilometers/ Time in Hours

Average Speed = 17,650,000 km. /15360 hours

Average Speed = 1149.0885417 km/hr

Approximately to 3 significant figures=

1150 km/hr

Therefore, the planets average speed in kmh-1 to 3sf is 1150 km/hr

If f(x)=3x^2+2 and g(x)=x^2-9 find (f-g)(x)

miss Akunina [59]

Here given, $f(x) = 3x^2+2$ and $g(x) = x^2-9$

we have to find $(f-g)(x)$ which means the subtracting of the functions f(x) and g(x).

$(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)$

= $(3x^2+2) - (x^2-9)$

= $3x^2+2 -x^2-(-9)$

= $3x^2-x^2+2+9$ ( we know that multiplication of negative and negative is positive)

= $2x^2+2+9$

= $2x^2+11$

We have got the required answer here.

$(f-g)(x) = 2x^2+11$

The expression 60 ⋅ 1. 2 t 60⋅1.2 t 60, dot, 1, point, 2, start superscript, t, end superscript models the number of nano-relate

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

B. There were 60 nano-related patents granted in 1991

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression:

60⋅1.2^t

t is years after 1991, that is, in the year 1993, t = 2

60 is the value of the expression at t = 0, then it represents the amount of nano-related patents granted in 1991
