A galaxy spectrum has a redshift of 70,000 km per second. If the Hubble constant is 70 km per second per Mpc (megaparsec), how far away from us in this galaxy

Using the Hubble law v = H₀d where v = recessional speed = 70,000 km per second H₀ = hubble constant = 70 km/s/Mpc and d = distance of galaxy.

Making d subject of the formula, we have

d = v/H₀

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

d = v/H₀

d = 70000 km/s/70 km/s/Mpc

d = 1000 Mpc

So, the galaxy is 1000 Mpc away from us.
