To solve the question, we draw a circle representing a great-circle section of the earth, with satellite at a point S above earth. Draw tangents from S to he circle, and from points A and B, to the center C.
Hence:
AC and BC are radii, and
SA⊥AC and SB⊥BC
∠ASB=154°
making the angular measure of the intercepted arc:
∠ACB=180-154=26°

Answer: 26°

Is the statement ""For every natural number n ≥ 1 there exists a directed graph of n vertices for which every vertex has an inde
Semenov [28]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason

let D be a directed graph with 'n' no of vertices and 'E' edges.

where 'n'=1.  thus D =(n,E).

In degree: in directed graph the number of incoming edges on a vertex is known as indegree.

it is denoted as deg ⁺(n).

And now we know that in a directed graph

if deg ⁻(n)= deg ⁺(n) for each vertex n.

Car value at the time of purchase $15, 250 (2012)
Rate of depreciation 7.5%
1) y = 15250 ( 1- 0.075)^x
y = 15250 (0.925)^x (x tis the number of years that passed since purchase)

2)  y = 15250 * ( 0.925)^8 = 8173.42

Julia is offered a job selling advertising for two different companies. Company A offers a base salary of $30,000 per year plus
patriot [66]
A=30000+0.03S and B=25000+0.05S.
When A=B, 5000=0.02S, so S=$250000 when the earnings are the same.
The slope of A is smaller than that of B. In excess of this value of S B pays more than A and below it A pays more than B.
So answer option B. (When S=0, clearly A is better than B. Put S=$300000, A pays $39000 and B pays $40000).
