It takes Mercury <span>approximately 58 days, 15 h, and 30 min to complete a full rotation..

We are going to write the time not in days, hours and minutes, but only hours.

This means that we have to write 58 days as hours and 30 minutes as hours.



1 day is 24 hours, so 58 days are

58*24=(50+8)*(20+4)=50*20+50*4+8*20+8*4=1,000+200+160+32

=1,200+192=1,392  (hours)


60 minutes are 1 hour, so 30 minutes are 0.5 hours.



Thus


</span>58 days, 15 h, and 30 min are (1,392+15+0.5) hours = 1,407.5 hours



Answer: 1,407.5 hours

Between 0 degrees Celsius and 30 degrees Celsius, the volume V (in cubic centimeters) of 1 kg of water at a temperature T is giv
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

T = 3.967 C

Step-by-step explanation:

Density = mass / volume

Use the mass = 1kg and volume as the equation given V, we will come up with the following equation

D = 1 / 999.87−0.06426T+0.0085043T^2−0.0000679T^3

   = (999.87−0.06426T+0.0085043T^2−0.0000679T^3)^-1

Find the first derivative of D with respect to temperature T

dD/dT = \dfrac{70000000\left(291T^2-24298T+91800\right)}{\left(679T^3-85043T^2+642600T-9998700000\right)^2}

Let dD/dT = 0 to find the critical value we will get

\dfrac{70000000\left(291T^2-24298T+91800\right)}  = 0

Using formula of quadratic, we get the roots:

T =  79.53 and T = 3.967

Since the temperature is only between 0 and 30, pick T = 3.967

Find 2nd derivative to check whether the equation will have maximum value:

-\dfrac{140000000\left(395178T^4-65993368T^3+3286558821T^2+2886200857800T-121415215620000\right)}{\left(679T^3-85043T^2+642600T-9998700000\right)^3}

Substituting the value with T=3.967,

d2D/dT2 = -1.54 x 10^(-8)    a negative value. Hence It is a maximum value

Substitute T =3.967 into equation V, we get V = 0.001 i.e. the volume when the the density is the highest is at 0.001 m3 with density of

D = 1/0.001 = 1000 kg/m3

Therefore T = 3.967 C

good job on increasing our team sales from 90 to 130 units per day.” wow i never thought that we could increase our sales by
artcher [175]

The sales was increased by 44.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Lets do this cumulative
  • 90 of 10 % =  9  which is 99
  • 90 of 10 % = 9 which is 108
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 117
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 126
  • 90 of 4 % = 3.6 which is 129.6
  • 90 of 0.044% = 0.0396 which is 129.99
  • This comes to nearly 44.44 to be closer there was an increase.
  • Always rule 1 approximation use 50% of 90 if it is above 130.
  • Down it to 40% of 90 see if the sales is lower than 130.
  • It should always start with 50,40,30....10 percents.
  • Alternative should be 10,1 or decimals.
  • Approximation using decimals rounding up becomes simple.

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x +10 =5(x +11)

-4x +10 =5x +55

-4x - 5x =55 - 10

-9x =45

x=-45 :9

x=-5
