Answer:

2100 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter to the moon = 240000 miles

∅ = 0.5 °

The subtended angle by an arc is given as:

S = r∅

Where

r = radius of the circle

Therefore,

D = 240,000 x (0.5 x π rads)/180

= 2094 miles

= 2100 miles.

Five men working six hours a day take eight days to fill a trench. How long does it take 3 men working eight hours a day to fill
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 10 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

To fill a trench, 5 men work for 6 hours a day for eight days.

Total work hours required is given by 5 × 6 × 8 = 240 hours.

The same work is supposed to be done by 3 men working 8 hours a day.

Let these three men need to work for x days.

Therefore total work hour these group of three men gave = 3 × 8 × x = 24x hours

Therefore the work hour of both the group of 5 men and 3 men should be equal.

⇒ 24x = 240

⇒ x = 10

Therefore the group of 3 men have to work for 10 days to fill the trench.

Which of the following equations matches the function shown above?
Ksenya-84 [330]

So, the function is obviously shifted up by 1 so it rules out A and B, and we also see that the period is 4pi rather than 2pi, and using the fact that:

\frac{2\pi}{b}=4\pi \implies \frac{b}{2\pi}=\frac{1}{4\pi}\implies b=\frac{1}{2}

Now that we know our b value, we see that the correct answer would be C.
