Answer:
- <u><em>Approximately 600 miles</em></u>
Explanation:
There are several ways to solve this using different assumptions.
First you need to imagine an isosceles triangle formed by:
- the equal sides of the triangle are the distance between the Earth and the Moon: 234,000 miles
- the included angle is 30 second of degree
- the base side of the triangle, opposed to the 30 seconds angle, is how far in miles from its assigned target the laser beam is: x
You can solve for x in several ways.
I will use the cosine rule:

Where:

One second of degree equals 1/3600 degrees:

Substitute in the equation and compute:


Answer:
x = -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+2 = -8
We are solving for x
The first step in isolating x is to subtract 2 from each side
4x+2-2 = -8-2
4x = -10
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = -10/4
x = -10/4
Simplify the fraction
x = -5/2
Question
5.5 ÷ .25 and plz show work
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
5.5 : 0.25 =
55 : 2.5 =
550 : 25 =
22
Answer:
A. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative negative 4 would be positive 4. The reason why is because if you multiplied -4 by -1, you'd get positive 4.
C is the answer all you had to do was
31.80-4.00
Which is 27.80
Then add 2.50
Which is 30.3!
