Answer: 52,416,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

If a comet travels 273,000 km/hr

1) Multiply 273,000 km by 24 hours to find how far the comet travels in one day

2) multiply the answer from 1 by 8 to determine how far it travels in 8 days

1) $\frac{273,000 km}{hr}$ * $\frac{24 hr}{1 day}$ = $\frac{6,552,000km}{day}$ (hours cancel out)

2) $\frac{6,552,000km}{day}$ *8 day= 52,416,000 km in 8 days

The comet approximately travelled 52,416,000km from when it began to travel to when it reached Earth. Hope this helped :)

Ivenika [448]

When adding two digit numbers u will be looking at the ones and deciding if they can regroup them for a ten. You might want to equate regrouping with trading a term that you will understand immediately you will begin to add 2 digit numbers by using ten and ones blocks. And the answer is (107)

The length of a rectangle is 7 more than the width. The area is 744 sqaure yards, find the length and width of the rectangle

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Length of rectangle is 31 yards and Width is 24 yards.

Given:

The length of a rectangle is 7 more than the width.
The area is 744 sqaure yards

Solution:

Let's assume Width of rectangle be x and Length of rectangle be x + 7 respectively.

Using formula

$\\ \: \: \: \: \pink{ \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf { \underbrace{Area_{(Rectangle)} = Length × Width }}} \\ \\$

On Substituting the required values, we get;

$\\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf (x)(x + 7) = 744 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf {x}^{2} + 7x = 744 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf {x}^{2} + 7x - 744 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf {x}^{2} + 31x - 24x - 744 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf x(x + 31) - 24 (x + 31) = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf (x + 31)(x - 24) = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \: \sf x = 24 \: or \: - 31 \\ \\$

As we know that width of the rectangle can't be negative. So x = 24

<u>Hence</u>,

Width of rectangle = x = 24 yards
Length of the rectangle = x + 7 = 31 yards

$\therefore$ Length of rectangle is 31 yards<u> </u>and Width is 24 yards.
