Answer:

3700hours

154days

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed can be defined as the distance cover per time, it can be expressed as

Speed= distance/ time........eqn(1)

Given:

distance between two planets= 4.07×10^¹²

speed of light = 1.1×10^⁹ kilometres per hour

Time= ??

Then substitute the values into equation (1) we have

Speed= distance/ time

1.1×10^⁹ kilometres per hour= 4.07×10^¹²kilometre/ time

Cross multiply, we have

Time= (4.07×10^¹²kilometre) /(1.1×10^⁹ kilometres per hour)

Time= 3700hours.

To convert to day, we know that

60 minute= 1hour

24hour=1day

Time= (3700hour×1day)/24hour

Time= 154days approximately.

Hence, the time taken for light to travel from one of these planets to the other is 154days or 3700hours

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

A) y-4=-1/2(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(0-4)/(2-(-6))

m=-4/(2+6)

m=-4/8

simplify

m=-1/2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-4=-1/2(x-(-6))

y-4=-1/2(x+6)

Find the volume of the cylinder.
Georgia [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h3>Exact volume = 32pi</h3><h3>Approximate volume =  100.48</h3>

The approximate volume only applies when pi = 3.14

Use either answer, but not both of course.

===============================================

Work Shown:

V = volume of cylinder

V = pi*r^2*h

V = pi*2^2*8

V = pi*32

V = 32pi .... exact volume in terms of pi

V = 32*3.14

V = 100.48 .... approximate volume when we use pi = 3.14

Each month your cell phone company charges you $ 50 for your plan plus 3 cents for each text you send. You have $ 140 budgeted f
pshichka [43]

Answer:

3000 text messages can be sent without breaking the budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each month your cell phone company charges $ 50 for your plan plus 3 cents for each text you send, and you have $ 140 budgeted for cell phone expenses for the month, to make a determination about the number of texts you can send each month the following calculation must be performed:

(140 - 50) / 0.03 = X

90 / 0.03 = X

3000 = X

Therefore, 3000 text messages can be sent without breaking the budget.
