Answer: 24 hours - no; because depending on where you are on Earth, you have a different amount of sunlight.
Step-by-step explanation:
The day-night cycle is a complete day or a complete rotation of the earth around its axis. This takes 24 hours which is why 24 hours is the length of a full day.
People around the world however, do not get the same amount of sunlight or darkness and this is because of where they are on Earth. Due to the way the planet is tilted on its axis, some areas see sunlight more than other in a period and others see more darkness.
Answer: Height = 20 inches
Width = 14 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The aquarium is rectangular. The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular box is expressed as
Volume = LWH
Where L,W and H represents the length, width and height of the box.
The aquarium holding African cichlids is 6 inches higher than it is wide. It means that
H = W + 6
Its length is 33 inches, and its volume is 9240 cubic inches. It means that
9240 = 33W(W + 6)
9240/33 = W(W + 6)
280 = W² + 6W
W² + 6W + (6/2)² = 280 + (6/2)²
(W + 3)² = 280 + 9 = 289
Taking square root of both sides, it becomes
W + 3 = √289 = 17
W = 17 - 3
W = 14
H = W + 6 = 14 + 6
H = 20
Check the picture below.
let's recall that a straight-line has 180°, and that sum of all interior angles in a triangle is also 180°.
