First, you must use a factor tree to find the prime factors of the number.

/ \

6 (2)

/ \

(3) (2)

2 , 2 and 3 are the prime factors that make 12

2 x 2 x 3= 12

2^2 x 3= 12

Planet A has a circumference of 93,480 miles. Its moon has a diameter that is approximated to be 1/ 8 that of Planet A. Find the

Alika [10]

Answer:

1071202 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of planet A = $2 \pi r$

We are given that Planet A has a circumference of 93,480 miles.

$2 \pi r = 93480$

$2r = \frac{93480}{\pi}$

Since we know that twice the radius is diameter

So, $d_{PlanetA} = \frac{93480}{\pi}$

Now we are given that Its moon has a diameter that is approximated to be 1/ 8 that of Planet A.

So, $d_{Moon} = \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{93480}{\pi}$

$d_{Moon} = \frac{11685}{\pi}$

$Distance_{moon}=288 \times diameter_{moon}$

$Distance_{moon}=288 \times \frac{11685}{\pi}$

$Distance_{moon}=\frac{3365280}{3.14}$

$Distance_{moon}\sim 1071202$

Hence the approximate distance of the moon from Planet A is 1071202 miles

6 and 7? Geometry homework

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6) triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC. It means that

AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC

Therefore,

6/21 = 10/y

Cross multiplying, it becomes

6y = 210

y = 210/6

y = 35

Also

6/21 = x/28

Cross multiplying, it becomes

6 × 28 = 21x

21x = 168

x = 168/21

x = 8

7) triangle JKL is similar to triangle NMP. It means that

JK/NM = KL/MP = JL/NP

Therefore,

49/14 = (9x + 1)/(x + 5)

Cross multiplying, it becomes

49(x + 5) = 14(9x + 1)

49x + 245 = 126x + 14

126x - 49x = 245 - 14

77x = 231

x = 231/77

x = 3

a TV has a listed price of 813.95 before tax if the sales tax rate is 6.5% find a total cost of the tv with the sales tax includ

shusha [124]

The tax is 6.5% OF the listed price. "OF" in math means multiply.

First convert the percentage to a decimal

6.5% = .065

Then multiply .065*813.95 = 52.90675. This is the tax.

Simply add the tax onto the cost

813.95 + 52.90675 = $866.86 (rounded)

The following formula relates three quantities Force (F) mass (m) and acceleration (a).

Agata [3.3K]

a. F = ma

F/a = ma/a

m = F/a

b. F = ma

-30 = -6a

a = 5

c. F = ma

30 = 10a

a = 3
