Answer:

The speed at which the satellite travel is 6.80 miles per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover by satellites = 29 $\frac{1}{2}$ miles

Or, The distance cover by satellites = $\frac{59}{2}$ miles

The Time taken by satellite to travel with this speed = 4 $\frac{1}{3}$ sec

Or, The Time taken by satellite to travel with this speed = $\frac{13}{3}$ seconds

Let the Speed with which the satellite travel = s miles per second

Now, As we know

Speed = $\dfrac{\textrm Distance}{\textrm Time}$

Or, s = $\frac{\frac{52}{2}}{\frac{13}{3}}$

or, s = $\frac{59\times 3}{2\times 13}$

∴ s = 6.80 mps

So, speed = s = 6.80 miles per second

Hence The speed at which the satellite travel is 6.80 miles per second Anwser

Solve the equation by the Quadratic Formula. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. Write your solutions from least to greate

Marat540 [252]

I hope the choices for the numerators of the solutions are given.

I am showing the complete work to find the solutions of this equation , it will help you to find an answer of your question based on this solution.

The standard form of a quadratic equation is :

ax² + bx + c = 0

And the quadratic formula is:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

So, first step is to compare the given equation with the above equation to get the value of a, b and c.

So, a = 10, b = -19 and c = 6.

Next step is to plug in these values in the above formula. Therefore,

So,

Hope this helps you!

Find the missing length ‘x’

givi [52]

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ h (b₁ + b₂ )

where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases

Here A = 55, h = 5. b₁ = x, b₂ = 9, then

$\frac{1}{2}$ × 5 × (x + 9) = 55

2.5(x + 9) = 55 ( divide both sides by 2.5 )

x + 9 = 22 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

x = 13
