Answer:

62,832 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you want to notice is that it's giving you two pieces of one part, if that makes sense. The radius of the earth, and then the distance from the surface of the earth to the orbit. What you want to do is find the circumference of the orbit in relation to the center of the earth. So, as a result, you're going to add those two values together. 6400 + 3600 equals 10,000. Now this is only the radius, but in order to find the circumference, we need the diameter. To find the diameter, you multiply the number by two. 10,000 x 2 is 20,000. Now you multiply this number by pi to find your final answer. This answer is 62,832 kilometers.

konstantin123 [22]
Multiply the cost per month of $19.95 times 12 months.

12 * 19.95 = $239.40

Multiply the number of weeks in a year which is 52 by the number of visits per week which is 2.

2 * 52 = 104 visits

Divide the amount of money for the year ($239.40) by the number of visits (104).

$239.40 / 104 = $2.3019 per visit or rounded to $2.30.

The equation of this sinusoidal function is either

f(x) = a sin(bx) + c

or

f(x) = a cos(bx) + c

Either way, the plot of f9x) has amplitude a, period 2π/b, and midline y = c.

If the period is π/2, then

2π/b = π/2   ⇒   b = 4

If the maximum value is 10 and the minimum value is -4, then

-4 ≤ a sin(4x) + c ≤ 10

-4 - c ≤ a sin(4x) ≤ 10 - c

-(4 + c)/a ≤ sin(4x) ≤ (10 - c)/a

Recall that sin(x) is bounded between -1 and 1. So we must have

-(4 + c)/a = -1   ⇒   a = c + 4

(10 - c)/a = 1   ⇒   a = -c + 10

Combining these equations and eliminating either variable gives

a + a = (c + 4) + (-c + 10)   ⇒   2a = 14   ⇒   a = 7

a - a = (c + 4) - (-c + 10)   ⇒   0 = 2c - 6   ⇒   c = 3

Finally, we have either

f(x) = a sin(bx) + c   ⇒   f(0) = c = 3

or

f(x) = a cos(bx) + c   ⇒   f(0) = a + c = 3

but the cosine case is impossible since a = 7.  

So, the given function has equation

f(x) = 7 sin(4x) + 3
