Answer:

7.56 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Width of the fjord, w = 6.3 km

Retreated terminus of the glacier between may 2001 and June 2005, d = 7.5 km

thus, the length lost , y = 7.5 - 6.3 = 1.2 km

now, the area is given as:

A = Length × width

on substituting the values, we get

A = 1.2 × 6.3

or

A = 7.56 km²

Hence, the surface area lost by the glacier in the fjord is 7.56 km²

Look at the figure below: an image of a right triangle is shown with an angle labeled y If sin y° = 7 divided by q and tan y° =
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Cosy° = \frac{r}{q}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

By applying all trigonometric ratios in the given right triangle,

Siny° = \frac{7}{q} = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

tany° = \frac{7}{r} = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

Therefore, Cosy° = \frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

Cosy° = \frac{r}{q}

Therefore, Cosy° = \frac{r}{q} will be the answer.

If B = {−13, −9, −7, −3}, choose the set A that will make the following statement false.
Svetach [21]

Answer: c.A is the set of rational numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

B ⊆ A means that every element of B is an element of A

B = { -13 , -9 , -7 , - 3 }

The element of B are negative integers , this mean that the element of A must also be integers therefore :

Option a is correct.

Option b is also correct

Rational numbers are numbers that can be express in the form a/b , examples are : 1/2 , 3/ 4 , 5/6 ...

clearly , this does not necessarily define A , so option c is the odd one out
