Steve Fossett completed the first solo balloon circumnavigation of the world after 13.5 days. Assuming the balloon travelled along a circle of diameter 12 750 km, roughly what was the average speed of the balloon in km/h?

A) 12
B) 40
C) 75
D) 120
E) 300​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B) 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed = distance/time

Distance = 12750 km

Time = 13.5 days = 13.5*24  hours = 324 hours

Speed = 12750 km /324 h =  39.4 km/h ≈ 40 km/h

Correct option is B) 40

When ax3 +x2 -2x +b is divided by x+1, the remainder is 10. When it is divided by x-3, the remainder is -46. What is the value of a and b?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

X+ 2 = 0

X = -2

on putting in polynomial

-8a +2b= 0

- 8a = 2b

b = -4a

Now

when divided by x - 1 give remainder -15

so

x - 1 = -15

x = -14

on putting in polynomial

-2744a + 198 + 14b - 4 = -14

-2744a + 56a = - 208

-2688a = -208

a = 168/13

Now

b = 672/13

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand (x+5)^2 through binomial expansion and you get x^2+10x+25.

Break up the problem into little pieces like (x-5)(x+5) and 10(x+5)

Solve the first piece (x-5)(x+5) by doing something like FOIL.

x^2-25

Do the second piece

10x+50

When you add them together, it becomes x^2+10x+25, and (x+5)^2=(x-5)(x+5)+10(x+5).

Answers

Answer:  see proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A + B + C = π              → A + B = π - C

                                              → B + C = π - A

                                              → C + A = π - B

                                              → C = π - (B +  C)

Use Sum to Product Identity:  cos A + cos B = 2 cos [(A + B)/2] · cos [(A - B)/2]

Use the Sum/Difference Identity: cos (A - B) = cos A · cos B + sin A · sin B

Use the Double Angle Identity: sin 2A = 2 sin A · cos A

Use the Cofunction Identity: cos (π/2 - A) = sin A

Certain cooking oil has a density of 0.91 grams per milliliter. Which of the following series of calculations correctly determines the mass, in kilograms, of 15 liters of this oil?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a picture of the answer, since I couldn't put into words!

The mass of 15 liters of oil is 13.65 kg.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by the subtract, divide, and multiply built-in functions.

The operator that performs the arithmetic operations are called arithmetic operators.

* Multiplication operation: Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

/ Division operation: Divides left-hand operand by right-hand operand

For example 4/2 = 2

What is the density?

Density is the ratio of the mass of the body to the volume of the body.

Density = Mass / Volume

Given that oil has a density of 0.91 grams per milliliter

To determines the mass, in kilograms, of 15 liters of this oil

Rearranging the equation,

Mass = Density × Volume

∵ 15 liters = 15000 milliliters (ml)

So, 0.91g/ml x 15000ml = 13650g

∵ 1 kilogram = 1000grams

⇒ 13650g / 1000g/kg

⇒ 13.65kg

Thus, the mass of 15 liters of oil is 13.65kg.

One of the legs of a right triangle is twice as long as the other, and the perimeter of the triangle is 35. Find the
lengths of all three sides, to two decimal places.

i would appreciate if you showed work so i know how you did it!

Answers

Answer:

6.68, 13.37, 14.95

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the legs is twice as long as the other.

b = 2a

The perimeter is 35.

35 = a + b + c

The triangle is a right triangle.

c² = a² + b²

Three equations, three variables.  Start by plugging the first equation into the second and solving for c.

35 = a + 2a + c

c = 35 − 3a

Now plug this and the first equation into the Pythagorean theorem:

(35 − 3a)² = a² + (2a)²

1225 − 210a + 9a² = a² + 4a²

1225 − 210a + 4a² = 0

Solve with quadratic formula:

a = [ -(-210) ± √((-210)² − 4(4)(1225)) ] / 2(4)

a = (210 ± √24500) / 8

a ≈ 6.68 or 45.82

Since the perimeter is 35, a = 6.68.  Therefore, the other sides are:

b ≈ 13.37

c ≈ 14.95

what is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4,-6) and (8,-4)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{2} x - 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient (also known as slope) and c is the y-intercept (the point through which the line cuts through the y-axis).

[tex]\boxed{gradient = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} }[/tex]

Using the gradient formula above,

[tex]m = \frac{ -4 - ( - 6)}{8 - 4} \\ m = \frac{ - 4 + 6}{4} \\ m = \frac{2}{4} \\ m = \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

Substitute the value of m into the equation:

y= ½x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates.

When x=4, y= -6,

-6= ½(4) +c

-6= 2 +c

c= -6 -2 (-2 on both sides)

c= -8 (simplify)

Thus, the equation of the line is y= ½x -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a polygon

interior angle + interior angle = 180°, thus

exterior angle = 180° - 144° = 36°

The sum of the exterior angles in a polygon = 360°, thus

number of sides = [tex]\frac{360}{36}[/tex] = 10

10 sides

A decagon is a 10-sided polygon, with 10 interior angles, and 10 vertices which is where the sides meet. A regular decagon has 10 equal-length sides and equal-measure interior angles. Each angle measures 144° and they all add up to 1,440°.
