It's generally known that it takes 8 minutes for light to get from the Sun to the Earth. If the speed of light is 3.0 X 10^8 m/s

and the distance from the Sun to the Earth is 9.3 X 10^7 miles, is this a true statement?

Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The time required at the given speed and distance is ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (9.3×10^7 mi)(1.6×10^3 m/mi)/(3.0×10^8 m/s) ≈ 4.96×10^2 s

This time corresponds to 8 minutes and 16 seconds. To an accuracy of 1 significant digit, the statement is true.

Solve using any method. −2x+y=−3 x+y=3 ( 5, 2) ( 1, 2) ( 2, 5) ( 2, 1)
nignag [31]

Answer:

Therefore the solution set is (x , y) = ( 2 , 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-2x+y=-3  ...............Equation ( 1 )

x+y=3\\  ...............Equation ( 2 )

\therefore y=3-x     ...............Equation ( 3 )

To Find:

x = ?

y = ?

Solution:

Using Substitution Method we will have

Substitute  above ' y ' Equation 3 in Equation 1 we get

-2x+(3-x)=-3\\-2x-x=-3-3\\-3x=-6\\3x=6\\x=\dfrac{6}{3}=2\\\\x=2

Now Substitute  ' x ' in Equation 3 we get

y=3-2=1\\y=1

Therefore the solution set is (x , y) = ( 2 , 1 )

In triangle ABC, angle A = 2x°, angle B = (x-45)° and angle C = (x-15)°.
Lelechka [254]
Sum\ of\ angles\ in\ triangle\ is\ equal\ to\ 180^{\circ}\\\\
To\ find\ x\ sum\ all\ angles:\\
2x+x-45+x-15=180\\\\
4x-60=180\ \ \ |Add\ 60\\\\
4x=60+180\\\\
4x=240\ \ \ |Divided\ by\ 4\\\\
x=60^{\circ}\\\\
\angle \  A=2x=2*60=120^{\circ}\\
\angle\ B=x-45=60-45=15^{\circ}\\
\angle\ C=x-15=60-15=45^{\circ}\\\\Triangle\ is\ \textbf{obtuse}.
