Complete question :

On average, light emitted from the Sun takes 8 minutes 19 seconds to reach Earth. Using your approximated speed of light from part (b), as well as the equation distance = rate x time, calculate the approximate distance from the Earth to the Sun in meters. Write your answer in standard form and in scientific notation.

Answer:

1.497 * 10^8km

149700000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Time taken = 8 minutes 19 seconds

Speed of light = 3 * 10^8 m/s

Distance from earth to sun :

Speed * time

(3 * 10^8) * ((8 * 60) + 19)

(3 * 10^8) * 499

= 1497 * 10^8 m or 1497 * 10^5 km = 1.497 * 10^8km

= 149700000000 m

= 149700000 km

= 1497

28 prime factorization
sineoko [7]

Answer:

2 x 2 x 7, or 2^2 x 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use prime factorization to find the prime numbers that make up 28:

28 = 2 x 14            

2 is a prime number, 14 is not, so we have our first prime, 2.

14 = 2 x 7      

We then further break the number down into two prime numbers, 2 and 7. Since 2 and 7 are prime and we can't break them down any further our answer is 2 x 2 x 7, or 2^2 x 7.

Answer:

136

Step-by-step explanation:

For the second question, it is 136 because for triangles all side when added always equal to 180, so if you add 24 and 20 (which = 44) and subtract it from 180, it gives you 136, which is the answer and the angle of n.
