Answer:

1000 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Sun is roughly 10^2 times as wide as the Earth.

The Star KW Sagittarii is roughly 10^5 times as wide as the Earth.

Question asked:

About how many times as wide as the Sun is KW Sagittarii?

Solution:

Let the width of the earth =  x

As the Sun is roughly 10^2 times as wide as the Earth, hence the width of the sun = x\times10^{2}

And as the Star KW Sagittarii is roughly 10^5 times as wide as the Earth, hence the width of the Star = x\times10^{5}

Now, to find that how many times width of the Star  KW Sagittarii is as respect to the width of the Sun, we will simply divide:

Width of the Star  KW Sagittarii =  x\times10^{5}

Width of the Sun = x\times10^{2}

\frac{x\times10^{5} }{x\times10^{2} }

x canceled by x

\frac{10^{5} }{10^{2} } =10^{5-2} =10^{3} =10\times\ 10\times10=1000

Therefore, Star  KW Sagittarii is 1000 times wider than Sun.

<em>First of all we calculated width of Sun in terms of width of earth and then calculated the width of the Star in terms of earth and for comparison we did simple division that showed that the Star KW Sagittarii is 1000 times wider than the Sun.</em>

Prove that x-1 is a factor of x^n-1 for any positive integer n.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:    

x-1 is a factor of x^n - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1 is a factor of x^n - 1

We will prove this with the help of principal of mathematical induction.

For n = 1, x-1 is a factor x-1, which is true.

Let the given statement be true for n = k that is x-1 is a factor of x^k - 1.

Thus, x^k - 1 can be written equal to  y(x-1), where y is an integer.

Now, we will prove that the given statement is true for n = k+1

x^{k+1} - 1\\=(x-1)x^k + x^k - 1\\=(x-1)x^k + y(x-1)\\(x-1)(x^k + y)

Thus, x^k - 1 is divisible by x-1.

Hence, by principle of mathematical induction, the given statement is true for all natural numbers,n.

Point B has coordinate B(1, –1). What is the coordinate of B' under a scale factor of 3?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The coordinate B' is B' = (3, -3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The new coordinate is computed by applying the scale factor with respect to origin:

B' = \alpha \cdot B

B' = 3\cdot (1,-1)

B' = (3\cdot 1, 3 \cdot (-1))

B' = (3, -3)
