Mercury is the closest planet to the sun at a distance of 36 million miles. The closest star to the sun is Proxima Centauri, which is 4.24 light years away. A light year is 5.9 x 10 to the 12th power. How many miles from the sun is Proxima Centauri?

2.36 * 10^13 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Proxima centauri is at a distance of 4.24 light years away from the sun.

Distance in miles of Proxima centauri from the sun ;

1 light year = 5.9 * 10^12 miles

Number of light years from the sun * 5.9 * 10^12

= 4 * (5.9 * 10^12)

= 23.6 * 10^12 miles

= 2.36 * 10^13 miles

312312

step-by-step explanation:

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
