A light-year is defined as the distance the light can cover in one year.

The light travels at speed of c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, and one year converted into seconds is
1 y = 365  \frac{d}{y} \cdot 24  \frac{h}{d} \cdot  60 \frac{m}{h} \cdot 60  \frac{s}{m}=3.15 \cdot 10^7 s

So the distance covered by the light in one year is
S=vt =(3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(3.15 \cdot 10^7 s)=9.45 \cdot 10^{15} m
And this is the distance that corresponds to one light-year.

[-1/4/5] × [-7/10+0.95] - [-2/1/4]
const2013 [10]

Answer:

-2.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1)[-1/4/5] × [-7/10+0.95] - [-2/1/4] turn that into improper fractions</u>

2 1/4=9/4

which is 1 4/5(-7/10+0.95)9/4

<u>2) 1 4/5(-7/10+0.95)= 0.3125</u>

which is 0.3125-9/4

<u>3)Make into decimal form</u>

9/4 equals 2.25

which is 0.3125-2.25

which all equals -2.5625

Answer:

Yes, they are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Two figures are congruent if they have the same side lengths and the same angles, all in the same order. (I mean "same order" by you couldn't have a rectangle and a kite with different orders of the sides being congruent). Now, if we use this, we can compare the sides and angles to find out that they are indeed congruent.
