Answer:

There are approximately 66666 astronimic units in a light year

Explanation:

This is a simple exercise of ratios.

Since the astronomic unit is 1.5e8 km and the light year is 10^13 km (the question had an error) we can write:

1 = \frac{x * AU}{1 LY}

So:

x = \frac{1 LY}{1 AU} = \frac{1e13 km}{1.5e8 km} = 666666

Which of the following situations is an example of how income affects supply, demand, and consumption?
Ronch [10]

Answer: A

Income in Arizona, Texas and New York are relatively high thus grocers can stock a large supply of Mexican products as they wish. The result of this is a low supply of said products in the market causing high prices. High price causes less demand and further less consumption. This is an example of how income affects supply, demand, and consumption.

Answer:

Think of it as two triangles. A square consists of a 45 45 90 triangle. So 1 would equal x root 2. Then you solve that equation and end up with (root 2)/2

Explain the reasons for the increase in the water tariffs​
Basile [38]

continues to spread globally, with supply chain disruptions resulting in declines in income and employment. There are, hence, additional worries that the disease could threaten food chains and supply systems and stoke inflation. Water tariffs are also at risk if utilities are not supported financially to contain production costs and keep revenue streams. The Economist magazine recently invoked that notion by stating that  shutters businesses and leaves supermarket shelves bare, economists fret that the pandemic could lead to inflation making an unwelcome return.” Thus, we should take a look at how inflation and water tariffs have evolved in  years to be able to foresee
