Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

21 water stations

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a marathon is 26.2 miles long and that there is a water station every 1 1/4miles along the race route and at the finish line.

To get the number of water stations that are needed for this marathon, we divide 26.2 miles by 1 1/4miles. This will be:

= 26.2miles/1 1/4 miles

= 26.2 miles/1.25 miles

= 20.96

= 21 water stations

PLEASE HELP ME FAST! THIS IS A SIMPLE TRIG PROBLEM BUT I SKIPPED CLASS.

NikAS [45]

we can factor the whole thing:

(2sin(x) -1)(sin(x)+1) = 0.

Therefore, sin(x) = -1 and sin(x) = 1/2.

For the first one x = 3π/2 and the second is π/6 and 5π/6

So 3π/2, π/6 and 5π/6 are the solutions.

I do kind of have a problem with this because it doesn't mention if you should go over 360°. Otherwise, you have to add in an 2nπ into the equations like 3π/2 + 2nπ; $n \in \mathbb{W}$

but I don't know if that is necessary for you.

Convert 1 cal/(m^2 * sec * °C) into BTU/(ft^2 * hr * °F)

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=0.03926\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Convert $1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}$ into $\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

Solution :

We convert units one by one,

$1\text{ m}^2=10.7639\text{ ft}^2$

$1\text{ sec}=\frac{1}{3600}\text{ hour}$

$1\text{ cal}=0.003968\text{ BTU}$

Converting temperature unit,

$^\circ C\times \frac{9}{5}+32=^\circ F$

$1^\circ C\times \frac{9}{5}+32=33.8^\circ F$

So, $1^\circ C=33.8^\circ F$

Substitute all the values in the unit conversion,

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=\frac{0.003968}{10.7639\times \frac{1}{3600}\times 33.8}\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=\frac{0.003968}{0.101061}\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

$1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=0.03926\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

Therefore, The conversion of unit is $1\ \frac{\text{cal}}{m^2\times sec\times ^\circ C}=0.03926\frac{\text{BTU}}{ft^2\times hr\times ^\circ F}$

(2+x)dy/dx=3y need help

den301095 [7]

$(2+x) \frac{dy}{dx} =3y$
$\frac{1}{3y} dy= \frac{1}{2+x} dx$
$\int { \frac{1}{3y} } \, dy = \int { \frac{1}{2+x} } \, dx$
$\frac{1}{3}\ln(3y) = \ln(2+x) + C$
(raise both to the power e): $e^{ \frac{1}{3}\ln(3y)}=e^{\ln(k(2+x))}$
$(3y)^ \frac{1}{3} =k(2+x)$
$3y=k(2+x)^3$
$y= k(2+x)^3$

Write the following equation, then solve. The difference of four times a number, x and 12 is 28

Alona [7]

Answer:

4x - 12 = 28

To isolate 4x, we add 12 to both sides:

4x - 12 + 12 = 28 + 12

so

4x = 40

Now we divide 4 from both sides:

x = 40 / 4

so x = 10
