There are two twins. One twin wants to explore the planet near Proxima Centauri and leaves on a spaceship traveling at 90% of the speed of light, while the other twin stays home on Earth. How much does the twin on Earth age while the other twin travels to Proxima Centauri?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance of planet from Earth = 1.3 parsec

We know that 1 parsec = 3.26 light years

And a light year is the distance traveled by light in time period of 1 year.

So, Distance of planet from Earth = 1.3 [tex]\times[/tex] 3.26 = 4.24 light years

Given that, the person travels at a speed equal to 90% of the light speed.

To travel to the planet from Earth, Light takes 4.24 years.

To travel the distance [tex]D[/tex], at a speed [tex]s[/tex] light takes time of 4.24 years.

To travel the distance [tex]D[/tex], at a speed [tex]0.90s[/tex], the person takes time:

[tex]\dfrac{4.24}{0.90} = \bold{4.7\ years}[/tex]

So, the twin on Earth ages by 4.7 years.

y + 2 = -2(x + 6)
y + 2 = -2(x-6)
y - 2 = -2(x + 6)

Answers

Answer:
y+2=-2(x+6)

Explanation:
Point-slope form: y-b=m(x-a) when the points are (x,y) and (a,b)

“M” means the slope.

Because we are already given a point, we just need to plug in the values as a and b. We can also plug in the value for the slope as m.

y-b=m(x-a)
y-(-2)=-2(x-(-6))
Two negatives make a positive
y+2=-2(x+6)

1 Two functions are shown below. Function A Function B x 0 3 5 y 5 3x 1 2 y 3 9 13 Which statement correctly describes the rates of change of the two functions? A The rate of change is 2 for both Function A and Function B. B The rate of change is 3 for both Function A and Function B. C The rate of change is greater for Function A than for Function B. D The rate of change is greater for Function B than for Function A.

Answers

Answer:

D The rate of change is greater for Function B than for Function A

Step-by-step explanation:

A function shows the relationship between a dependent variable and an independent variable. A linear function is given as y = mx + b, where m is the rate of change, y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable and b is the value of y when x = 0.

Function B is given by y = 3x + 2. Comparing with y =mx + b gives m = 3. Therefore the rate of change of function B is 3.

Function A has x: 0, 3, 9 and y:3, 9, 13. Using the points (0,3) and (3, 9), we an get the equation of the function. The formula is:

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-3=\frac{9-3}{3-0}(x-0)\\ \\y-3=2x\\\\y=2x+3[/tex]

Function A is given by y = 2x + 3. Comparing with y =mx + b gives m = 2. Therefore the rate of change of function A is 2.

The rate of change is greater for Function B than for Function A

rewrite the linear equation 2x=1/3y-9 in slope- intercept form.
y=. x. +

Answers

Answer:

y = 6x + 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The required linear equation would be y = 6x + 27 in the slope-intercept form.

What is a Linear Function?

A linear function is defined as a function in the form of f(x) = mx + c where 'm' and 'c' are real numbers.

It represents the line's slope-intercept form, which is written as y = mx+ c.

Linear equations can be solved in four different ways: by adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.

The linear equation is given in the question

⇒ 2x = (1/3)y - 9

We have to rewrite the equation in the slope-intercept form.

⇒ 2x = (1/3)y - 9

Multiply by 3 both sides of the above equation,

⇒ 6x = y - 27

Rearrange the term of y to get

⇒ y = 6x + 27

Therefore, the required linear equation would be y = 6x + 27 in the slope-intercept form.

What were the total cash receipts? In Passage 1, how does the author compare the issues of tax increases and advertising on buses?A)They are both actions that require safeguards.B)They are both issues of controversy in school districts.C)They are both possible approaches to dealing with budgetary concerns.D)They are both present problems that cannot be ignored by state representatives.(THE paragraph)1 Tight school budgets could soon translate into Missouri school districts selling ad space on yellow school buses.2 Missouri state Rep. T.J. Berry, R-Kearney, says his billHB 224isnt a cure-all by any stretch. But legalizing ads inside and outside the buses would give school districts one additional way to raise money in these tough times.3 Every single school district has had to deal with budget concerns, Berry said last week. And generally speaking, the way they have had to deal with those has been cuts or tax increases.4 The school bus is something that is already out there and paid for, he said. His bill would permit districts to generate a modest stream of income from their buses.5 Few question the need for finding additional funds when it comes to educating children, but at least two groups think the school bus exteriors should remain ad-free.6 There is no such thing as free money, said Josh Golin, associate director for the Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood. There are real costs to this: the price of selling out your students to advertisers.7 Students dont need the first and last message they receive from their schools each day to be advertisements, Golin said. Students boarding a bus are certainly a captive audience.8 The National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services opposes advertising on safety grounds. Obscuring the recognizable school-bus yellow exterior with ads and distracting other drivers present a safety problem around school buses that cannot be ignored, the group said in its position paper.9 National studies have shown that anything that diverts a drivers attention from the road can pose a hazard, opponents say.10 And a big yellow bus doesnt distract? Berry asked.11 Several years ago in Indiana, a Department of Education lawyer suggested that allowing advertisements on buses would invite First Amendment challenges by spurned advertisers, the group noted.12 Berry said the bill would limit the types of advertising that would be allowed.13 The regulations would prohibit ads that contain obscene or sexual material, or messages associated with gambling, tobacco products, alcohol, and political campaigns or causes. The ads could not promote drug use or any illegal activity or antisocial behavior. They cant contain harmful, discriminatory, false, misleading or deceptive messages.14 There are a lot of safeguards being built in, he said.15 Berry emphasized that the space reserved for the ads would be very limited, meaning toward the back of the bus.16 By 2012, nine statesArizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas and Utahpermitted advertising on the exterior of school buses, according to the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. Several, including Missouri, considered it last year.17 The bill made it out of the Missouri House last year but did not clear the Senate, Berry said. He acknowledged that the idea was very controversial. On a bicycle, you can travel 20 miles in 4 hours. At thissame rate, what distance can you travel in 6 hours?

An agricultural people, whose chief interest is the export of a commodity required in every manufacturing country, our true policy is peace, and the freest trade which our necessities will permit . . . There can be but little rivalry between ours and any manufacturing or navigating community, such as the Northeastern States of the American Union. It must follow, therefore, that a mutual interest would invite good will and kind offices. If, however, passion or the lust of dominion should cloud the judgment or inflame the ambition of those States, we must prepare to meet the emergency and to maintain, by the final arbitrament of the sword, the position which we have assumed among the nations of the earth. We have entered upon the career of independence, and it must be inflexibly pursued. Through many years of controversy with our late associates, the Northern States, we have vainly endeavored to secure tranquillity, and to obtain respect for the rights to which we were entitled. As a necessity, not a choice, we have resorted to the remedy of separation; and henceforth our energies must be directed to the conduct of our own affairs, and the perpetuity of the Confederacy which we have formed.
