Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Each sandwich costs 6 dollars, while chips sell for 3 dollars. She purchased 5 sandwiches at 6 dollars each, amounting to 30 dollars (5*6=30). This leaves her with 12 dollars to use since her total expenditure was 42 dollars. Given that chips are 3 dollars each, with 12 dollars left, 4 bags could be bought (4 * 3 = 12).
The hyperbolic cosine function (cosh) is defined as
cosh (x) = (e^x + e^-x) / 2
The tangent line's slope at any given point on a function is determined by the derivative of that function at that specific point.
d/dx [cosh(x)] = d/dx[(e^x + e^-x) / 2] = (e^x - e^-x) / 2 = sinh(x)
Assuming the slope equals 2, we have
sinh(x) = 2
thus,
x = sinh^-1 (2) = 1.444
Consequently, the curve of y = cosh(x) has a slope of 2 at the coordinate x = 1.44
Total time taken = 9.0252 *10^12 s.
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided:
- Distance from Earth to Alpha Centauri: 4.3 light years.
- Distance from Earth to Sirius: 8.6 light years.
- Probe speed: V = 18.03 km/s.
- 1 AU equals 1.58125 x 10^-5 light-years.
Objective:
Determine the total time the probe has been in motion from leaving Earth to reaching Sirius.
Solution:
- Journey is tracked for each destination sequentially:
Earth ------> Alpha Centauri: d_1 = 4.3 light years
Alpha Centauri ------> Earth: d_2 =4.3 light years
Earth ------> Sirius: d_3 = 8.6 light years
Sum of distances = D = 17.2 light years.
- Now, we convert the total distance into kilometers (SI units):
1 AU ----------> 1.58125 x 10^-5 light-years
x AU ----------> 17.2 light years.
- By proportions:
x = 17.2 / (1.58125 x 10^-5) = 1087747.036 AU.
Also,
1 AU ---------------------> 149597870700 m
1087747.036 AU ----> D m.
- Using proportions:
D = 1087747.036*149597870700 = 1.62725*10^17 m.
- Finally, applying the speed-distance-time formula:
Time = Distance traveled (D) / V
Time = 1.62725*10^17 / (18.03*10^3).
Final answer: Time = 9.0252 *10^12 s.
