Answer:

V = w C = 0.004488 \frac{rad}{hr} *3000 \pi mi = 42.298 \frac{mi}{hr}

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are in the equator we can assume a circular pattern and we can find the angular velocity like this:

w = \frac{1 rev}{1400 hr} *\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}= 0.004488 rad/hr

After we have this we can find the total distance travelled finding the circumference length of the planet Mercury at the equator with the following formula:

C = 2 \pi R

And we can replace the values given and we got:

C = 2\pi *1500 mi =3000 \pi mi

Now we can find the linear speed using this formula between the circumference and the angular velocity:

V = w C = 0.004488 \frac{rad}{hr} *3000 \pi mi = 42.298 \frac{mi}{hr}

And that would be the linear velocity required for this case.

Find the domain of the function:
makkiz [27]

Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The domain of the function given in the problem are all those values for which the function that is in the denomiantor is different from zero, because the division by 0 is not allowed.

2. You can make the denominator equal to zero and solve it, as you can see below:

x^{3}-2x^{2}+x=0\\x(x^{2}-2x+1)=0\\x(x-1)(x-1)=0\\x=0\\x=1

3. Therefore, the domain is:

(-∞,0)U(0,1)U(1,∞)

In AABC, MZA = 16°, mZB = 49°, and<br> a = 4. Find c to the nearest tenth.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

  (c)  13.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, so angle C is ...

  C = 180° -A -B

  C = 180° -16° -49° = 115°

The measure of side c can be found from the Law of Sines:

  c/sin(C) = a/sin(A)

  c = a·sin(C)/sin(A) = 4·sin(115°)/sin(16°)

  c ≈ 13.2

In the figure above AB = 4x + 6 and BC = 7x + 15. If AC = 120, find the length of segment AB.
Mrac [35]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = 4x + 6 and BC = 7x + 15  AC is the sum of AB and BC

so 4x + 6 + 7x + 15 = 120 add like terms

11x + 21 = 120 subtract 21 from both sides

11x = 99 divide both sides by 11

x = 9
