Solution:

we are given that

The magnitudes of the moon and Sirius are -12.5 and -1.44 respectively.

we have been asked to find approximately how many times is the moon brighter than Sirius?

The word magnitude is used by the scientist to describe the brightness of moon/star/object etc.

So we can find the brightness by dividing the given values. so we get

\frac{-12.5}{-1.44} =8.6805

Hence we can say

The moon is 8.68 times brighter than Sirius.

There is 12/15 of a pizza left. How many 3/10 pieces can be made from the leftover pizza? Show work please!
Katyanochek1 [597]

How many 1/3 pieces can be made from 2 pizzas, we know it is 6 and it is arrived by dividing 2 by 1/3 or multiplying by its reciprocal 3/1.

Hence to find how many 3/10 pieces can be made from 12/15 pizza, we have to divide 12/15 by 3/10 or multiplying by its reciprocal 10/3, i.e.

12/15 times 10/3= 8/3 or 2  2/3 

What does that mean? This means that while 2 three-tenths pieces can be made, 2/3of 3/10 i.e. <span>2/3×3/10=2/10=1/5</span> or one-fifth of pizza will be left out.

So the answer is 2 three-tenths pieces can be made, and one-fifth pizza will be left out.

A meter is 3.37 inches more than a yard swimmer a swims 100 meters and swimmer b swims 100 yeards how many more feet did swimmer
olga_2 [115]
Swimmer a swims 100 meters, which is 100 1-meters, which is 100
(1 yards +3.37 inches) = 100 yards + 337 inches.

1 yard is 3 feet, so 100 yards are 300 feet.

100 in is 8.33 feet so
337 in is (337*8.33)/100=28.07 feet


Swimmer b swims 100 yards, which is 300 feet

Swimmer a swam 28.07 feet.

PLEASE HELPP MEE ASAPP!!
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

each zero of the function will have a factor of (x - x₀)

h(x) = a(x + 3)(x + 2)(x - 1)

h(x) = a(x + 3)(x² + x - 2)

h(x) = a(x³ + 4x² + x - 6)

or the third option works if a = 1

however this equation gives us the points (0, -6) and (-1. -4), so "a" must be -2

h(x) = -2x³ - 8x² - 2x + 12

to fit ALL of the given points as it fits the three zeros and also h(0) and h(-1) so I guess that is why the given group is a <u><em>partial</em></u> set of solution sets
