Answer:
y equals -1.16 (repeating decimal)
Step-by-step explanation:
I got the answer by first solving what is in the parentheses. 42-6=36. After this, I subtracted 36 on both sides to get the variable (y) by itself. After I did this, I had 24y = -28. So, I divided both sides by 24 (24y). The y was left by itself and -28/24=1.16 (repeating decimal).
<em><u>Therefore, y=1.16,1.17 when rounded, or -7/6 as a fraction</u></em>
<u>Answer:</u>
1130400 km
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know the formula for circumference of a circle:
<em>Circumference = </em>
So we need the radius of Saturn ring to calculate its circumference.
We are given Saturn's diamter which is 120,000km; and know that Saturn's ring extends for about 120,000 km from the circumference of the Saturn.
Therefore, the radius of Saturn's ring will be 120000 km plus half of the diameter of Saturn:
Radius of Saturn's ring = 120000 + (120000/2) = 180000 km
Circumference of Saturn's rings = 2 x 3.14 x 180000 = 1130400 km
