<span>Since both places are on the same longitude (122° west) and different lattitudes 45° north and 37° north, the distance between the two place lies on a great circle (along a line of longitude). Difference in latitudes = 45 - 37 = 8° (subtract the lattitudes because both sides are on the same side in the latitude i.e. both are north) The distance between two points along the line of longitude is given by theta / 360 x 2 x pi x R: where theta = 8° and R is the radius of the earth = 3,960 miles. d = 8 / 360 x 2 x pi x 3960 = 552.9 miles</span>

Increase 120 centimetres by 24%
Eva8 [605]
It is a simple problem where 120 centimeters need to be increased by 24%. The increased length can be found by:
120 * (24/100)
= 12 * (24/10)
= 288/10
= 28.8 centimeters
Then the total length of increase = 28.8 cm
Then the increased length = (120 + 28.8) cm
                                         = 148.8 cm
So the length becomes 148.8 cm after it is increased by 24%.

Answer:

C. Choosing test numbers to the left and right of each of the function's zeros and finding the value of the function at each test number

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational function: In mathematics, the term "rational function" is determined as any specific function that can be described through any "rational fraction", in other words, an algebraic fraction, involving both the denominator and the numerator are considered as polynomials. Therefore, the coefficients of specific polynomials are ought not to be in rational numbers and can be considered in the K field.

In the question above, the given statement represents option C is correct.
