According to astronomers, what is a "light year" answer key

Mathematics

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.

How in the world do I answer this problem??​
galben [10]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

ST is y and SU is 2y-4.

Note that SU = ST + TU = y + 18

So we have 2y - 4 = y + 18

2y - 4 = y + 18

2y      = y + 22

y        = 22

So ST is 22.

I need help with these two
Dmitrij [34]

19.

A) 84 : 120 --) 7 : 10, I came up with it by knowing x, # of times ordered,

7(x) : 3(x) sum will be 120 and guessed from there.

B) Well I came up with it trying to get the ratio for A, 84 smoothies.

C) 84 ( smoothies) - 36 ( juice drinks)

20.

A) Ok you first have the birds from the first hour which sum up to 24. Then to calculate what of how many birds you saw for the second hour you use the ratio 2 (cardinals) : 3 ( chickadees) : 3 ( pigeons). Now before you use the ratio you need to know how many birds out of the 36 have not been seen in the first hour so just subtract 36 - 24 = 12. Next you figure out what number you can multiply every bird against to get a sum of 12 birds in total. I figured out it's 1.5 as a multiplier. I know physically it's not possible, but I did all the steps correct and apparently they don't care it's not realistic. I hope this helps you on the homework sheet.
