Answer:
A)
58/3 = 19.33 hours
B)
84.00 hours
C)
2074.29 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Under the assumption the earth is a perfect circle, then in a complete rotation ( 24 hours) the earth will rotate through 360 degrees or 2π radians.
A)
In one day or 24 hours the earth rotates through 360 degrees. We are required to determine the duration it takes to rotate through 290 degrees. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 290 degrees, then the following proportions hold;
(24/360) = (x/290)
solving for x;
x = (24/360) * 290 = 58/3 = 19.33 hours
B)
In 24 hours the earth rotates through an angle of 2π radians. We are required to determine the duration it will takes the Earth to rotate through 7π radians. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 7π radians, then the following proportions hold;
(24/2π radians) = (x/7π radians)
Solving for x;
x = (24/2π radians)*7π radians = 84 hours
C)
If the diameter of the earth is 7920 miles, then in a day or 24 hours a point on the equator will rotate through a distance equal to the circumference of the Earth. Using the formula for the circumference of a circle;
circumference = 2*π*R = π*D
= 7920*3.142
= 24891.43 miles
Therefore a point on the equator covers a distance of 24891.43 miles in 24 hours. This will imply that the speed of the earth is approximately;
(24891.43miles)/(24 hours) = 1037.14 miles/hr
The distance covered by the point in 2 hours will thus be;
1037.14 * 2 = 2074.29 miles
Answer:
Option D y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
The question in English is
Which of the following functions is a constant function?
we know that
A <u>constant function</u> is a function whose output value is the same for every input value
so
<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>
case A) y=x+1
This is not a constant function, this is a linear equation
Is a function whose output value is different for every input value
case B) y=x+2
This is not a constant function, this is a linear equation
Is a function whose output value is different for every input value
case C) x=y+3
This is not a constant function, this is a linear equation
Is a function whose output value is different for every input value
case D) y=3
This is a constant function
Is a function whose output value is the same for every input value
Answer:
The answer is 8 .
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=36
36=3x+12
36-12 and 12 -12
36-12=24
24 divided by the 3 that left in the equation equals 8 .
36=3x+12
-12 -12
24=3x
divided 24 by 3 and get 8
