Using complete sentences, explain how the scientist can use only thesetwo measurements to calculate the distance between the Earth and the Sun.

Notice that we can use the trigonometric function tangent to find the distance between the Earth and the Sun with the following expression:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan x=\frac{y}{ES} \\ \Rightarrow ES=\frac{y}{\tan x} \end{gathered}[/tex]then, if the scientist only have the measure of the distance between the earth and the moon and the angle that forms between the earth and the moon in the sun, we can find out the distance between the Earth and the Sun

Relationship between sides and surface areas
Find
Conclusion from the table
Explanation
From the table we can see that sides double in 1st, 2nd and 4th case
So comparing them
When side =1 then Surface area = 6 cm sq
When side = 2 then Surface area = 24 cm sq
Here we can see that when the side doubles, the surface area quadruples
Similar result is obtained when in relation of side = 2 and side 4
Final Answer
When the side doubles, the surface area quadruples
option (a) is correct

An important rule before subtracting fractions, you must first make them have a common denominator. The common denominator is the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of the two different denominators.
You may use this formula:
[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{(a)(\frac{c}{b})}{c}[/tex]We get,
a.) 9/12 - 1/2 ; The LCM of 12 and 2 is 12.
[tex]\frac{9}{12}-\frac{1}{2}=\text{ }\frac{9}{12}-\frac{(1)(\frac{12}{2})}{12}=\text{ }\frac{9}{12}-\frac{(1)(6)}{12}=\frac{9}{12}-\frac{6}{12}[/tex][tex]\frac{9}{12}-\frac{6}{12}=\frac{3}{12}[/tex]Therefore, the difference of 9/12 - 1/2 is 3/12. You shade letter B.

I dont understand how the answer is 1/3. how do you calculate that answer????
Answers
1/3
Explanation:To convert repeating decimals to fraction, we need to represent it with a variable
let n = 0.3333...
Multiply the above by 100:
100n = 33.3333...
The 3 dots after the 3333 means the numbers continues; hence indicating a repeating decimal
n = 0.3333 ...equation 1
100n = 33.3333 ...equation 2
subtract equation 1 from 2:
100n - n = 33.3333 - 0.3333
100n - n = 99n
99n = 33
divide both sides by 99:
99n/99 = 33/99
n = 1/3
Therefore, 0.3 repeating decimal in fraction is 1/3

Answers
To determine the curve of best fit, let's look at the x-intercepts of the curve.
Based on the graph, the x-intercepts are at x = -7 and x = -1.
Since -7 and -1 are the x-intercepts, we can say that the factors of this curve are:
[tex](x+7)(x+1)[/tex]Now, we can also see that the graph is opening downward, therefore, the leading coefficient of the equation of this graph must be negative. For this, we will multiply the factors above by -1.
[tex]-(x+7)(x+1)[/tex]All we have to do now is multiply the factors above in order to get the curve of best fit.
[tex]-(x^2+x+7x+7)[/tex]Combine similar terms like x and 7x.
[tex]-(x^2+8x+7)[/tex]Then, distribute the negative sign.
[tex]-x^2-8x-7[/tex]Therefore, the curve of best fit is y = -x² - 8x - 7.

Patrick is buying rabbits. This graph shows how the total cost depends on the number of rabbits purchased.
Answers
Using the graph provided, we must find how many rabbits correspond to a cost of $20.
To find the number of rabbits, we look for the value $20 on the vertical axis, then we follow a horizontal line to the curve, and then we go down vertically to the horizontal axis. We find that the number of rabbits is 5.
We see that we have a linear relationship between the number of rabbits and its cost. If 5 rabbits cost $20, each rabbit costs $20/5 = $4 (we can also find this value looking at the graph).
Using the cost of each rabbit, we have that:
• 5 rabbits cost $4 * 5 = $20,
,• 8 rabbits cost $4 * 8 = $32,
,• 12 rabbIts cost $4 * 12 = $48.
Answer
5 rabbits cost $20,
8 rabbits cost $32,
12 rabbIts cost $48.

Recall Heron's Formula to find the area of a triangle with sides a, b and c.
We define a new quantity s given by:
[tex]s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}[/tex]Then, the area of the triangle is given by the formula:
[tex]A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex]For a=20, b=10 and c=15 we have:
[tex]s=\frac{20+10+15}{2}=22.5[/tex]Then, the area of the triangle is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\sqrt{22.5(22.5-20)(22.5-10)(22.5-15)} \\ =\sqrt{22.5(2.5)(12.5)(7.5)} \\ =\frac{75\sqrt{15}}{4} \\ =72.61843774... \\ \approx72.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the exact answer is:

x= 7/3 and x=1
To obtain the coordinate of the turning point, we substitute into the equation given

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{for x=1} \\ y=x^3-5x^2+7x-2 \\ y=(1)^3-5(1)^2+7(1)-2 \\ y=1-5+7-2 \\ y=1 \\ \text{turning point =(1,1)} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the other turning point is (1,1)

Solution
Please note that 1 miles equal to 1.6kilometers. Let us convert 15miles to kilometers as shown below
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1miles=1.6kilometers \\ 15miles=15\times1.6kilometers \\ 15miles=24kilometers \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the speed of 15miles per hour is equivalent to 24kilometers per hour

And the kilometers travelled in 5 hours is 120 kilometers
