light travels about 186,000mi/s . The function gives the distance d(t), in , that travels in t seconds. How far does travel in 16s.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The function d(t) = 186000t gives the distance, in miles, that light travels in t seconds.

To find how far light travels in 16 seconds, we can plug in t = 16 and calculate d(16).

Using my pocket calculator, I get:
d(16) = 186000 * 16 d(16) = 2976000

So, light travels 2976000 miles in 16 seconds. That’s about 12 times the circumference of the Earth or 0.05% of a light-year.

A restaurant earns $1073 on Friday and $1108 on Saturday. Write and solve an equation to find the amount xx (in dollars) the restaurant needs to earn on Sunday to average $1000 per day over the three-day period.

Answers

Money earned by restaurant on Friday=$1073

Money earned by restaurant on Saturday=$1108

Let Money earned by restaurant on Sunday=$x

Average=$1000

$\text { average}=\frac { sum of all the observation}{total number of observation}$
