Number of miles traveled by light in a light-year is 5.952 × 10^12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the number of miles (distance) in a light year by using the formula for speed = Distance/Time

⇒ Distance = Speed × Time

                   = 1.86 × 10^5 × 1 yr (convert to seconds)

                   = 1.86 × 10^5 × 365 days × 24 hrs × 60 mins × 60 sec

                   = 1.86 × 10^5 × 31,536 × 10³

                   = 1.86 × 3.2 × 10^5 × 10^7

                   = 5.952 × 10^12 miles

8(-14)/[(-8)-3(-13)]
Nadusha1986 [10]

Hey there!

\bold{\frac{8(-14)}{(-8)-3(-13)}}

  • \bold{8\times-14=-112}
  • \bold{\frac{-112}{(-8)-3(-13)}}
  • \bold{3\times-13=39}
  • \bold{\frac{-112}{-8-39} }
  • \bold{-8-(-39)=31}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:\frac{-112}{31}}}}

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

How do you work this out?
Katarina [22]
Because ABCD is a rectangle, the length of CD is 12 cm.

We need to determine the length of DE.  If we can do that, then the sum of the lengths of CD and DE represents the unknown:  the length of CE.

To find the length of CE, we have to "solve" the upper triangle.

Here's an outline of what to do:

1.  Show that BC=AD and find the length.
2.  Note that angle CAD is 60 degrees.  Why?
3.  Note that angle EAD is 30 degrees.  Why?
4.  Find the length of ED
5.  Add ED and DC, that is, ED + 12 cm.  This is your answer.

Please ask questions if need be.

The graph of the equation below is a circle. What is the length of the radius of the circle? (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 17^2
djverab [1.8K]
The correct answer is:  [D]:  "17" .
______________________________________________________
The radius is:  " 17" .
______________________________________________________
Note:
______________________________________________________
The formula/equation for the graph of a circle is:
______________________________________________________
   (x − h)²  +<span> </span> (y − k)² =  r²  ;

in which:  

          " (h, k) " ; are the coordinate of the point of the center of the circle;

           "r" is the length of the "radius" ; for which we want to determine;
_______________________________________________________
We are given the following equation of the graph of a particular circle:
_______________________________________________________

          →  (x − 4)²  +  (y + 12)² =  17² ;

which is in the correct form:

→  " (x − h)²  +  (y − k)² =  r²  " ;

 in which:  " h = 4 " ;

                  " k = -12" ;

                   "r = 17 " ;  which is the "radius" ; which is our answer.

          →  { Note that: "k = NEGATIVE  12" } ;

→  Since the equation <u>for this particular circle</u> contains the expression:             _________________________________________________________    
                      →     "...(y + k)² ..." ;  
         
[as opposed to the standard form:  "...(y − k)² ..." ] ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since the coordinates of the center of a circle are represented by:
            " (h, k) " ;  
 
→  which are:  " (4, -12) " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since:  " k = -12 " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ;
_________________________________________________________
then: 

 " [y − k ] ²  =  [ y − (k) ] ²  =  " [ y − (-12) ] ² " ;
                                    
                                         =  " ( y + 12)² "  ;
                                    
{NOTE:  Since:  "subtracting a negative" is the same as "adding a positive" ;

           →   So;  " [ y − (-12 ] " = " [ y + (⁺ 12) ] " = " (y + 12) "
___________________________________________________  
Note:  The above explanation is relevant to confirm that the equation is, in fact, in "proper form"; to ensure that the:  radius, "r" ;  is:  "17" .
___________________________________________________
           →    Since:  "r  =  17 " ;  

           →  The radius is:  " 17 " ;

          which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  "17" .
