86? I'm not sure, sorry.
I plugged in the x and y values of the point given
Since a stop sign is an octagon it has eight sides. So the perimeter will be:
p=8x, p=perimeter and x=side length. We are told that the perimeter is equal to:
16x^2-80x so we can say:
16x^2-80x=8x subtract 8x from both sides
16x^2-88x=0 factor out 8x
8x(2x-11), since we know x>0
x=11/2
x=5.5 units
Answer:
Distance from Anchorage (longitude 150 degrees W) to Saint Petersburg (longitude 30 degrees E) = 10,002.47 KM
Step-by-step explanation:
As earth is a sphere of radius 6371 km.
Therefore at 60 degree latitude, the radius of circle can be calculated as shown below:
= 6371 * Cos 60
= 3185.5 KM
Saint Petersburg is nearly 180 degree about Anchorage by flying directly east.
So Distance from Anchorage (longitude 150 degrees W) to Saint Petersburg (longitude 30 degrees E) can be calculated as shown below:
= (180 * 2 * 3.1416 * 3185.5) / 360
= 10,002.47 KM
1.04 ^ 1/12 = 0.086666666
or
1.04 ^ 1/12 = 13/150
