Answer: 8.37 cm rounded

Step-by-step explanation: The second hand on a clock rotates around the center of a clock creating a circle. This means it travels around the circle of the clock every hour. Its distance around the clock is the circumference of its circle with radius 8 cm.

This is the total distance around the clock in 1 hour. But how far does it travel in 10 minutes? 10 minutes is 1/6 of 60 minutes, a full hour. Multiply the circumference by 1/6 to find the distance in 10 minutes.

1/6 ( 50.24)= 8.37

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{55000^2} - \frac{y^2}{59464^2} =1$

Step-by-step explanation:

the transverse axis is horizontal.

so its a horizontal hyperbola

Center is the origin so center is (0,0)

Equation of horizontal hyperbola is

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} =1$

Given a= 55000 and c= 81000

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

81000^2 = 55000^2 + b^2

subtract 55000^2 on both sides

b = sqrt(81000^2 - 55000^2)= 59464.27

now plug in the values

$\frac{x^2}{55000^2} - \frac{y^2}{59464^2} =1$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 68 = 2x + 103

Subtract 2x from each side

5x + 68 = 103

Subtract 68 from each side

5x = 35

divide 5 from 35 and you get X = 7
