Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The Earth, Sun and Moon form a right triangle.
By the definition of cosine in a right triangle we can write that
cos x ° = adjacent side /hypothenuse = y/ distance Moon Sun
Since we measured the angle x, and the distance y we can use algebra to find the unknown distance between the moon and the Sun.
distance Moon Sun = y/cos x°
Hey there. In the comments above, let's list these fractions and convert them into decimals for a more simple comprehension level:
0; 1/8; 3/8; 1/2; 5/8; 3/4; 7/8; and 1. The converted list below will correspond with these fractions in order:
0; 0.125; 0.375; 0.5; 0.625; 0.75; 0.875; and 1.00.
Looking at these decimals, 1.00 is the greatest amount as it is the only fraction that converted to a whole number.
I hope this helps!
The answer would be 7.07 if you are using the whole pi
You haven't shared "the given value of x," or, if you have, you haven't drawn attention to it.
Just suppose we were to choose x = 4 as a possible solution and then try to find a value of the parameter k that would make x = 4 an actual solution.
2(4) + 4k - 9 = (4)(4) - (4) + 1
Then 8 + 4k - 9 = 16 - 4 + 1, or 4k - 1 = 13. Then 4k = 14, and k = 14/4, or (after reduction) k = 7/2
If the parameter k equals 7/2, then x = 4 is a solution to the given equation.
To check this out further, start with the proposed solution x = 5 and find k.
The answer to your problem will be 1,220. hope this helps
