1. How close was halley's comet to earth in 1910?create an equation to answer the question.

2. estimate the next 3 years when halley's comet will appear.

3. the core of halley's comet is oblong in shape, with its longest dimension 16 km long. earth's diameter is about 12,700 km . how many times larger in diameter is earth than halley's comet?

Answers

Answer 1

1) In 1910, Halley's Comet was 21.37 million kilometers close to Earth.

2) Given that Halley's Comet orbits the sun at about 75 years, and that the last time it passed near the Earth was in 1986, the years in which it will happen again will be 2061, 2136 and 2211.

3) Earth is 794 times larger in diameter than Halley's Comet.

Since in 1910, Halley's Comet traveled close to Earth about 1/7 of the distance from the Earth to the Sun, and Earth's distance from the Sun is 149.6 million kilometers, to determine 1) how close was Halley's Comet to Earth in 1910, 2) estimate the next 3 years when Halley's Comet will appear, and 3) if the core of Halley's Comet is oblong in shape, with its longest dimension 16 km long, and Earth's diameter is about 12,700 km, how many times larger in diameter is Earth than Halley's Comet, the following calculations must be performed:

1)

149.6 / 7 = X 21.37 = X

2)

1986 + 75 = 2061 2061 + 75 = 2136 2136 + 75 = 2211

3)

12700/16 = X 793.75 = X

Answer 2

The relationship between Halley's comet and the earth is an illustration of proportions

The given parameters are:

Earth's distance from the sun = 149.6 million kilometersHalley's comet traveled close to 1/7 of the distance.

(a) The distance

The distance which Halley's comet get to is calculated using:

[tex]d = \frac 17 \times 149.6\ million\ km[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]d = 21.37\ million\ km[/tex]

Hence, Halley's comet was 21.37 million kilometers close to the earth in 1910.

(b) The next three years it will appear

From the complete question, the comet is visible every 74 years.

It appears in 1910.

So, the next three years are:

[tex]Year\ 1 = 1910 + 74 = 1984[/tex]

[tex]Year\ 2 = 1984 + 74 = 2058[/tex]

[tex]Year\ 3 = 2058 + 74 = 2132[/tex]

Hence, the comet will appear in 1984, 2058 and 2132.

(c) The number of times the earth is larger

The diameter of the earth is given as: 12700 km, while the longest dimension of the oblong shaped comet is 16 km.

So, the number of times (n) which the earth is greater than the comet is:

[tex]n = \frac{12700}{16}[/tex]

[tex]n = 794[/tex] --- approximated

Hence, the diameter of the earth is 794 times larger than Halley's Comet.

If Mrs. Allan's car uses 8 gallons of gas for a 224-mile trip, then, at that rate, how many gallons of gas would the car use for a 560-mile trip?

Answers

Answer:

20 gallons of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

8 gallons of gas = 224 mile trip

Miles per gallon of Mrs. Allan's car :

Number of miles / gallons of gas

224 miles / 8 gallons

= 28 miles per gallon

Gallons of gas car will use for 560 miles

Number of miles / miles per gallon

560 miles / 28 miles per gallon

= 20 gallons of gas

You can represent the measures of an angle and its complement as x° and (90 - x)°. Similarly, you can represent the measures of and angle and is supplement as x° and (180 - x)°. Use these expressions to find the measure of the angles described. The measure of the supplement of an angle is three times the measure of its complement. The measure of the angle is________ degrees, the measure of its complement is degrees, and the measure of its supplement is ________degrees.

Answers

Answer:

The angle is equal to 45°, its complementary is equal to (90-45)°=45°, and its supplementar is equal to (180-45)°=135°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle be equal to x°. We know that

[tex](180 - x) = 3(90- x)[/tex]

Therefore, solving for x, we have

[tex]180 - x = 270 - 3x \\ 2x = 90 \\ x = 45[/tex]

So the angle is equal to 45°, its complementary is equal to (90-45)°=45°, and its supplementar is equal to (180-45)°=135°

Distance from the cliff 2000m

Angle = 10°

How tall is the cliff?

We solve the above question using the trigonometric function of Tangent

tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

Opposite = x

Adjacent = 2000m

θ = 10°

Hence:

tan 10 = x/2000m

Cross Multiply

x = tan 10 × 2000m

x = 352.65396142 m

Approximately = 352.7 m

The cliff is 352.7 m tall

A tourist attraction experienced a 3.75% fall in visitor numbers in June, compared to the previous month due to bad weather There were 121660 visitors in June How many visitors were there in May? B) In July there were 4.5% more visitors than in May What was the percentage increase in visitor numbers from June to July?

Answers

Answer:

(A) 126400

(B) 8.57%

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) According to the scenario, calculation of the given data are as follows,

Visitors in June = 121660

Let visitors in May = X

Difference in visitors number in June = 3.75% decrease

So, we can calculate the visitors number in may by using following formula,

Number of visitors in June = X - 3.75%X

121660 = 96.25%X

X = (121660 × 100) ÷ 96.25

X = 126400

Hence, Number of visitors in may = 126400

(B). Difference in visitors in July than in May = 4.5% increase

So, Number of visitors in July = 126400 + (126400 × 4.5%)

= 126400 + 5688

= 132088

Now, we will calculate increase in percentage by using following formula,

Increase percentage = (132088 - 121660)  ÷ 121660

= 10428 ÷ 121660

= 0.0857 or 8.57%
