spin [16.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: 8.3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mile is to 1.60934km so 93 million miles is:

= 93 * 1.609

= ‭149,637,000‬ km

Travelling at 300,000 km per second, the number of seconds it takes is:

= ‭149,637,000‬/300,000

= ‭498.79‬ secs

In minutes this is:

= ‭498.79‬/60

= 8.3 minutes

An architect planned to construct two similar stone pyramid structures in a park. The
kondaur [170]

Answer:

1) Change the length of side AB to 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that both structures are similar, it follows that the ratio of their corresponding lengths are equal.

To find out what should be the correct length of AB that she should change to, set up the proportion showing the ratio of 2 corresponding lengths of both structures. Thus:

\frac{PR}{AC} = \frac{PQ}{AB}

We will assume AB is unknown.

PR = 7.5 ft

AC = 2.5 ft

PQ = 6 ft

Plug in the values into the equation

\frac{7.5}{2.5} = \frac{6}{AB}

Cross multiply

AB*7.5 = 6*2.5

AB*7.5 = 15

Divide both sides by 7.5

AB = 2

The architect should change the length of AB to 2 ft
