Answer:
A) SUBTRACT 3x by both sides of the bottom equation.
V = x/t = 4.5 mil / 3 h = 1.5 mph
Since, v = 1.5 mph (or we can say that v is constant), distance and time vary directly and the constant of variation is 1.5 mph.
Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
Answer:
c. has 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night for all locations
Step-by-step explanation:
The equinox is the time of the year marked by a nearly equal length of day and night. This word has a Latin root meaning which stands for equality, hence the word 'equinox'. It usually falls on March 21, and September 23 of every year. On these days the sun is above the equator.
The equinox which occurs around September happens in the Northern Hemisphere and is also known as the Fall or Autumnal equinox. Whereas, the equinox which occurs at the Southern Hemisphere is also known as the Spring or Vernal equinox. During an equinox, the tilt of the earth is perpendicular to the sun.
