Answer:
*Assuming that the question should read '8 years less than 3 times Danielle's age'*
Equation: 3a - 8 = 34, where 'a' = Danielle's age
Danielle's age (a) = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Using key words and phrases from the problem, we can find Danielle's age by setting up an equation to solve for 'a'.
Since Danielle's aunt is '8 years less than 3 times Danielle's age' her aunt's age can be written as: 3a - 8. We also know her aunt is 34. So, the equation becomes:
3a - 8 = 34
Add 8 to both sides: 3a - 8 + 8 = 34 + 8 or 3a = 42
Divide both sides by 3: 3a/3 = 42/3
Solve for a: a = 14, so Danielle's age is 14 years old.
Answer:
- The scientist can use these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.
- The scientist can substitute these measurements into
and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star (which would be the hypotenuse of the righ triangle).
Step-by-step explanation:
You can observe in the figure attached that "AC" is the distance between the Sun and the shooting star.
Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Sun "y" and the angle x°, the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.
This is:

In this case:

Therefore, the scientist can substitute these measurements into
, and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star "AC":
