A Cepheid star is a type of variable star, which means its brightness is not constant. The relationship between the brightness o

f a Cepheid star and its period, or length of its pulse, is given by M = –2.78(log P) – 1.35, where M is the absolute magnitude, or brightness, of the star, and P is the number of days required for the star to complete one cycle. What is the absolute magnitude of a star that has a period of 45 days? Use a calculator. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. –5.95 –4.60 3.25 4.60

Answer:

The absolute brightness of the Cepheid star after a period of 45 days is -5.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the absolute magnitude or brightness of a Cepheid star is related to its period or length of its pulse by

M = –2.78(log P) – 1.35 where M = absolute magnitude and P = period or length of pulse.

From our question, it is given that P = 45 days.

So, M = –2.78(log P) – 1.35

M = –2.78(log 45) – 1.35

M = –2.78(1.6532) – 1.35

M = -4.60 - 1.35

M = -5.95

So, the absolute magnitude or brightness M of a Cepheid star after a period P of 45 days is -5.95

Alexus [3.1K]
Given:

6 out of 2000 students quit community college due to serious health issues.
$10,000 insurance company offer
$60 per year

Based on the data, there are 6 students who will be given the $10,000 insurance per year. So they need

6 * 10,000 = $60,000 to make a break-even on their insurance offer

If a student pays $60 per year, they should have

$60,000 / $60 = 1,000 students who will pay per year to reach the break-even mark of their investment. If the number of students will exceed 1,000, the company will begin to earn.

a water tank holds 24,000 gallons how many hours will it take for two thirds of the water to be used if the water is used at an
melomori [17]
In this question there are several important information's worth noting.Based on these information's the answer can be easily found. It is given that the total capacity of the tank is 24000 gallons. in 24 hours or in 1 day the amount of water used is 650 gallons. The question requires us to find the time it will take to use 2/3 rd of the water in the tank.
then
2/3 rd water in respect to total water in tank = (2/3) * 24000
                                                                       = 16000
So 2/3 rd water of full tank is equivalent to 16000 gallons.
Now
650 gallons of water is used in = 24 hours
So
16000 gallons of water will be used in = (24/650) * 16000
                                                             = 590.77 hours
So it will take 590.77 hours to consume 2/3rd of the total water present in the tank.

Determine whether each statement is true or false. If a statement is true, give a reason or cite an appropriate statement from t
Over [174]

Answer:

1) a. False, adding a multiple of one column to another does not change the value of the determinant.

2) d. True, column-equivalent matrices are matrices that can be obtained from each other by performing elementary column operations on the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If the multiple of one column of a matrix A is added to another to form matrix B then we get: |A| = |B|. Here, the value of the determinant does not change. The correct option is A

a. False, adding a multiple of one column to another does not change the value of the determinant.

2) Two matrices can be column-equivalent when one matrix is changed to the other using a sequence of elementary column operations. Correc option is d.

d. True, column-equivalent matrices are matrices that can be obtained from each other by performing elementary column operations on the other.
