We are given
height = 3.7 mi
radius = 3959 mi
We are asked for the distance between the man and the horizon
The straight line from the man to the horizon is a tangent line to the surface of the earth
Using Pythagorean theorem
(3.7 + 3959)² = 3959² + d²
Solve for d
d = 171 mi
hope this helped is not sorry
Answer:
Mia scored 6 baskets Last Saturday.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let:
Mia made score of baskets on Last Saturday = x
Mia made score of baskets yesterday = 3x (Mia made three times as many baskets in yesterday’s basketball game as she did last Saturday. three times means multiply 3 with score of Last Saturday baskets, i.e. x)
Total score of baskets = 24
We need to find How many baskets did Mia score last Saturday?
We can write:
<em>Total Score = Score on Last Saturday + Score yester</em>day

Solving this equation we can find value of x:

So, we get value of x = 6
Mia made score of baskets on Last Saturday = x = 6
Mia scored 6 baskets Last Saturday.
