<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

The width is 18cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of the area of a rectangle is:

Area = length * width

Then you substitute in the values you know:

144 = 8 * width

To find the width you need to rearrange the formula to make the width the subject. Do this by dividing the area by the length:

Width = 144 / 8

Width = 18

So the width is 18cm

The equation t^3=a^2 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun, A

ankoles [38]

Answer:

2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the relationship of interest by solving the given equation for A, the mean distance.

<h3>Solve for A</h3>

$T^3=A^2\\\\A=\sqrt{T^3}=T\sqrt{T}\qquad\text{take the square root}$

<h3>Substitute values</h3>

The mean distance of planet X is found in terms of its period to be ...

$D_x=T_x\sqrt{T_x}$

The mean distance of planet Y can be found using the given relation ...

$T_y=2T_x\\\\D_y=T_y\sqrt{T_y}=2T_x\sqrt{2T_x}=(2\sqrt{2})T_x\sqrt{T_x}\\\\D_y=2\sqrt{2}\cdot D_x$

The mean distance of planet Y is increased from that of planet X by the factor ...

Find an equivalent fractions for each given fraction 60/12

evablogger [386]

Very easy to do this.

60/12 is your fraction.

Multiply numerator and denominator by the same number.

60*2/12*2 = 120/24

120/24 = 5

You can also simplify.

60/12 = 5

12/12 = 1

5/1 = 5

60/12 = 5

What is the exponents <br>

zmey [24]

The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.

For Example, In 8² , the 2 is the number of times 8 has to be multiplied. In this case It has to multiplied by itself 2 times, 8x8 = 64 so 8² = 64.
Another example is 9³ since the number above is 3 we have to multiply 9 three times, 9x9x9 = 729 which means 9³ = 729.

Hope this helps
