The equation T^2 = A^3 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun,

A, in astronomical units, AU. If planet Y is twice the mean distance from the sun as planet X, by what factor is the orbital period increased?

Given the relationship T^2 = A^3, to compare the values of the orbital periods of X and Y, it would be easier to assign values. Since the Planet Y's distance A is twice that of Planet X's distance A, this can be shown below:

For Planet X (where A = 2):

T^2 = 2^3
T = 2.828

For Planet Y (where A = 4)

T^2 = 4^3
T = 8

Therefore, planet Y's orbital period is larger by (8/2.828) = 2.83 times.

Solve for y -2(x + 3 y) =18
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y= -3y - 1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x + 3y) = 18 Distribute the -2 to the x + 3y

-2x - 6y = 18

+2x          +2x    Add the 2x to both sides

-6y = 18 + 2x   Divide both sides by -6

y= -3y - 1/3x

In a race 24 out of 25 cyclists finished in less than 51 minutes what percentage of cyclists finished the race in less then 51 m
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: 96%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 25 total cyclists and 24 of those finished the race in less than 51 minutes. The question would like this 24 to be expressed as a percentage of 25.

In percentage this would be:

= Number of cyclists who finished in 51 minutes / Total number of cyclists * 100%

= 24 / 25 * 100%

= 96%
