The diameter of mercury is approximately 4.9×103 kilometers. the diameter of earth is approximately 1.3×104 kilometers. about how many times greater is the diameter of earth than the diameter of mercury? 2.7 27 270 2700

Hi there!

To get the answer to this question, let's divide the diameter of the Earth by the diameter of Mercury.

We can change this to

Let's solve for each individual fraction

≈ 0.27

= 10

Now, multiply.

0.27 * 10 = 2.7

That's your answer.

Have an awesome day/night! :)

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.
