Alien cartographers are mapping a new planet and encounter a region where the terrain elevation, y, must be greater than 2 times the distance from a reference point, x, minus 3 units. Which of the following represents the correct mapping area for this region?

• Region below the line y = 2x - 3

• Region above the line y = 2x - 3

• Region on the line y = 2x - 3

• Region to the left of the line y = 2x - 3

An alien species is multiplying on a distant planet. The number of aliens doubles every hour. If the planet starts with 3 aliens, how many aliens will there be after 10 hours?

Aliens from two different planets are communicating using a special language. The language uses the concept of Triangles. Help them decode the message.

• Planet Z's signal strength = 4/3,

  Planet C's signal strength =14/4

• Planet Z's signal strength = 3/4,

  Planet C's signal strength = 8/17

• Planet Z's signal strength = 4/3

  Planet C's signal strength = 17/8

• Planet Z's signal strength = 7/2

  Planet C's signal strength = 3/4

Alien X is trying to communicate using trigonometric signals. Help them find the ratio of both trig functions to ensure the message is clear.

• Cos X = 8/17,

  Sin X = 5/3

• Cos X = 5/4

  Sin X = 17/15

• Cos X = 15/17,

  Sin X = 4/5

• Cos X = 4/5

  Sin X = 17/15

What is the cosmic inequality represented by this star chart?
