<span>a.
The radius of earth is about 6400 kilometers. Find the circumference of
a great circle.
Circumference = 2π(radius) = 2π(6400 km) = 40.212,39 km
b. Write an equation for the circumference of any
latitude circle with angle theta
As stated, </span><span><span>the
length of any parallel of latitude (this is the circumference of corresponding circle) is equal to the circumference of a
great circle of Earth times the cosine of the latitude angle</span>:
=> Circumference = 2π*radius* cos(Θ) = 2 π*6400km*cos(Θ) = 40,212.39 cos(Θ)
Answer: circumference = 40,212.39 cos(Θ) km
c. Which latitude circle has a
circumference of about 3593 kilometers?
Make </span><span><span>40,212.39 cos(Θ)</span> km = 3593 km
=> cos(Θ) = 3593 / 40,212.39 = 0.08935 => Θ = arccos(0.08935) = 84.5° = 1.48 rad
Answer: 1.48
d. What is the circumference of
the Equator?
</span>
For the Equator Θ = 0°
=> circumference = 40,213.49cos(0°) km = 40,212.49 km
Answer: 40,212.49 km
You can determine midpoint by
x-midpoint = (x₁ + x₂)/2
y-midpoint = (y₁ + y₂)/2
Given from the question
x-midpoint = -6
x₁ = -7
y-midpoint = 5
y₁ = 8
Asked from the question
(x₂, y₂)
Solution
Find x₂, input the value of x₁ and x-midpoint to the formula
(x₁ + x₂)/2 = x-midpoint
(-7 + x₂)/2 = -6
-7 + x₂ = -6 × 2
-7 + x₂ = -12
x₂ = -12 + 7
x₂ = -5
Find y₂, input the value of y₁ and y-midpoint to the formula
(y₁ + y₂)/2 = 5
(8 + y₂)/2 = 5
8 + y₂ = 5 × 2
8 + y₂ = 10
y₂ = 10 - 8
y₂ = 2
Answer
P₂ = (-5,2)
Answer:
solution is an assignment of values to the unknown variables that makes the equality in the equation true. In other words, a solution is a value or a collection of values (one for each unknown) such that, when substituted for the unknowns, the equation becomes an equality.

Answer: y = 1.2</h3>
Work Shown:
Inverse variation equations can be written in the form x*y = k for some fixed number k. Let's plug in the first point (x,y) = (1.6, 6) to compute the value of k
x*y = k
1.6*6 = k
9.6 = k
k = 9.6
Therefore the equation updates to
x*y = 9.6
Plug in x = 8 and solve for y
x*y = 9.6
8*y = 9.6
y = 9.6/8 .... divide both sides by 8
y = 1.2
