Answer:
The distance reduces to 0 as you go from 0° to 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
The question requires you to find the distance using different values of L and check the trend of the values.
Given C=2×pi×r×cos L where L is the latitude in ° and r is the radius in miles then;
Taking r=3960 and L=0° ,
C=2×
×3960×cos 0°
C=2××3960×1
C=7380
Taking L=45° and r=3960 then;
C= 2××3960×cos 45°
C=5600.28
Taking L=60° and r=3960 then;
C=2××3960×cos 60°
C=3960
Taking L=90° and r=3960 then;
C=2××3960×cos 90°
C=2××3960×0
C=0
Conclusion
The values of the distance from around the Earth along a given latitude decreases with increase in the value of L when r is constant
If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB=BC. It is also BC=AC-AB
AB = x + 6
AC = 5x - 6
BC = (5x - 6) - (x + 6)
We can kinda use distributive property, like this:
BC = 5x - 6 -x - 6
Combine like terms:
BC = 4x - 12
To verify, we can add AB and BC to see if their sum is equal to AC.
(x + 6) + (4x - 12) = 5x - 6
If we are correct, this equation will be true.
x + 6 + 4x - 12 = 5x - 6
Combine like terms:
6 + 5x - 12 = 5x - 6
5x - 6 = 5x - 6
It's correct!
BC = 4x - 12. Final Answer.
Let me know if you have any questions about this! :)
Answer:
A y = 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
We can check each line to see if the point is on it
A y = 3x 6 = 2*3 6=6 this is true so the point is one the line
B y = 4-x 6 = 2-4 6 = -2 false
C y = -3x 6 = -3(2) 6=-6 false
D y =-x+4 6 = -2+4 6 = 2 false
Is there a picture so I can help
