why does a week have seven days​

Answers

Answer 1

Hi!the week has seven days because the Babylonians, who lived in modern-day Iraq, were astute observers and interpreters of the heavens, and it is largely thanks to them that our weeks are seven days long. The reason they adopted the number seven was that they observed seven celestial bodies — the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

Answer 2

the main reason is :

Avid astronomers and astrologers, the developed a kind of horoscope around 500 where each day of the week was assigned to one of the classical planets – the seven celestial bodies visible to the eye. These are the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and saturn

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the three lines are parallel.

There weren't really any specific instructions so I'd assume that we're trying to find the lines. They are all in the same thing, as shown, one is 21 and the other is 12. That means the parallel line is cutting of 9.

We can then assume 2x+2-9=x+3

Then, to solve, you can get 2x-7=x+3

X=10

A clothing manufacturer has the marginal revenue function MR(x)=30-0.2x, 0 ≤ x ≤ 100 (in dollars per suit), where x is the number of suits sold each week. Then the total revenue from selling 60 suits is $

Answers

Based on the marginal revenue function for the clothing manufacturer, the total revenue from selling 60 suits is $1,440.

What is the total revenue from selling the suits?


The marginal revenue function of 30 - 0.2x is the differentiated revenue function.

Performing an integration will therefore give us the revenue function as:

= 30x - 0.1x²

Now that we have the revenue function and know that x = 60 suits, the revenue is:

= (30 x 60) - (0.1 x 60²)

= 1,800 - 360

= $1,440

9. If it takes Joel 30 seconds to
foot of fencing, how many total minutes will it take him to install the fence?


Please help me thank you so much.

Answers

Answer:

8. Joel will not form a right triangle.

9.20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

8. First use theorem

Right triangle theorem

c²=a²+b²

c=20 ft

a=8ft

b=15 ft

20² =8²+15²

simplify

400= 64+225

400 does not = 289

9.

Part B)

if Joel cut the longest piece of fencing in order to make a right triangle

longest part is 17^2

a²+b²=289

c²=√289

c=17 ft

the perimeter of the fence is

a+b+c

17+8+15

perimeter is

40 ft

30 sec to install 40 ft(perimeter)

x=40*30

x=1200 seconds

x=1200/60 in minutes

x=20 minutes

since 4x is positive, the larger factor of 45 needs to be positive

that's why the 5 is negative

when solving problems like this, just find two factors of the last number that add up to the middle number

then throw them in parenthesis with an x

Hi,

x2 + 4x − 45 can be factorized to (x + 9)(x - 5).

Question: If [tex]$f(x)=\cos \left[2 \tan ^{-1}\left(\sin \left(\cot ^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{1-x}{x}}\right)\right)\right]$[/tex]
Options:
[tex](a) $f^{\prime}(x)(x-1)^{2}-2(f(x))^{2}=0$\\\(b) $f^{\prime}(x)(x-1)^{2}+2(f(x))^{2}=0$\\(c) $f^{\prime}(x)(x+1)^{2}+2(f(x))^{2}=0$\\(d) $f^{\prime}(x)(x+1)^{2}-2(f(x))^{2}=0$[/tex]

Answers

Note that √((1 - x)/x) is defined only as long as 0 < x ≤ 1.

Consider a right triangle with reference angle θ such that

[tex]\cot(\theta) = \sqrt{\dfrac{1-x}x}[/tex]

In other words, on an appropriate domain,

[tex]\theta = \cot^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\dfrac{1-x}x}\right)[/tex]

In such a triangle, you would find that

[tex]\sin(\theta) = \sqrt x[/tex]

so f(x) reduces a bit to

[tex]f(x) = \cos\left(2 \tan^{-1}(\sqrt x)\right)[/tex]

Now consider another triangle with reference angle ɸ such that

[tex]\tan(\phi) = \sqrt x \implies \phi = \tan^{-1}(\sqrt x)[/tex]

In this triangle, you would find

[tex]\cos(\phi) = \dfrac1{\sqrt{1+x}}[/tex]

Recalling the double angle identity for cosine, it follows that

[tex]f(x) = \cos(2\phi) = 2 \cos^2(\phi) - 1 = \dfrac{1-x}{1+x}[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to x yields

[tex]f'(x) = -\dfrac2{(1+x)^2}[/tex]

while

[tex]f(x)^2 = \dfrac{(1-x)^2}{(1+x)^2}[/tex]

It follows that

[tex]f'(x)(x-1)^2 - 2f(x)^2 = 0[/tex]

so B is the correct choice.

Step 3. x = -4 or x = 10

A. In step 3

B. The student did not make any mistakes, the solution is correct

C. In step 1

D. In step 2

Answer:

A. in Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is factored correctly. Then separated into two smaller equations correctly. But in solving x + 10 = 0, there is an error.

x + 10 = 0

Add -10 to both sides.

x = -10

So, the error is in step 3.

Answer:
