In 1 minute, it would travel 60/100 miles since if it covers 3/100 mile in 3 seconds, it implies that traveling 1/100 mile takes one second and hence a minute (60 seconds) equates to 60/100 of a mile.

The answer is 0.6 mile. Step-by-step explanation: Given the distance covered in 3 seconds is $\frac{3}{100}$ miles, we need to ascertain the distance it can cover in a minute. Since it can travel $\frac{3}{100}$ miles in 3 seconds, in 1 second it covers $\frac{3}{100\times3} =\frac{1}{100}$ miles. Consequently, over 60 seconds (1 minute), the distance traveled is calculated as mile. Thus, it will reach 0.6 mile in one minute.

The angles m∠Q and m∠S together equal 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angle measures 90°.

The total measure of angles in a triangle sums to 180°.

This gives us:

m∠Q + m∠S + ∠R = 180°

m∠Q + m∠S + 90° = 180°

Rearranging yields:

m∠Q + m∠S = 180° - 90°

m∠Q + m∠S = 90°

Noah drew a scaled copy of Polygon P and labeled it Polygon Q. If the area of Polygon P is 5 square units, what scale factor did

babunello [11817]

Answer:

The scale factor equates to 3.

Detailed explanation:

Please refer to the provided image for clarity regarding this issue.

We know that

If two shapes are similar, then the ratio of their areas corresponds to the square of the scale factor.

Let

z -----> scale factor

x -----> area of polygon Q

y ----> area of polygon P

Thus, we have

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

so, we proceed with

$y=5\ units^2$

Determining the area of polygon Q

The polygon Q can be divided into five distinct squares.

Refer to the additional figure N 2.

The area of polygon Q, which represents the total area of the five squares, is

$x=5(3^2)=45\ units^2$

Calculating the scale factor

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

Thus, we derive

$x=45\ units^2$

$y=5\ units^2$

By substituting the values, we find

$z^{2}=\frac{45}{5}$

$z^{2}=9$

Taking the square root of both sides results in

$z=3$

Thus,

The scale factor resolves to 3.

A space probe is controlled by 7 different instructions from the ground. the probabilities of sending these instructions vary -

Zina [12379]

The space probe must be able to recognize 7 distinct command types.
The number of combinations that can be encoded using n bits is 2^n. Thus, the minimum number of bits required to encode at least 7 different commands would be:

2^n > 7
2^n > 2^2.80
n > 2.80
n=3

A minimum of 3 bits is required
