Which BEST describes the orbit of the Moon around Earth?Select one:
a. circular with a period of about one month
b. circular with a period of about one week
c. elliptical with a period of about one month
d. elliptical with a period of about one week

Answers

The statement that best describes the moon's orbit around the Earth is c. elliptical with a period of about one month. Although its orbit is elliptical, the moon's orbit can be described as nearly circular because it has an eccentricity of 0.05. Moreover, it takes around 27.322 days for it to orbit around the Earth once.

Nina graphs the function y = ⌊x⌋ to learn the properties of the parent floor function.Find the value of y when x =5.7

Answers

x is the greatest integer. Now the integer is either equal to or less than the integer which is x. [ x ] is the notation. We are given that,
y = [ x ] whereby, x = 5.7.
Therefore, y is the floor function where y = [ 5.7 ] = 5
y = 5.

Answer: 5

Explanation:

Given: Nina graphs the function y=\left \lfloor{x}\right \rfloor  to learn the properties of the parent floor function.

  • The floor function\left \lfloor{x}\right \rfloor which is also known as the greatest integer function denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x .

If the value of x = 5.7

Then, the y=\left \lfloor{5.7}\right \rfloor=5, since 5 is the  greatest integer less than or equal to 5.7 .
