Answer:

(x−3)(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle number is 5 and the last number is -24.

Factoring means we want something like

(x+_)(x+_)

Which numbers go in the blanks?

We need two numbers that...

Add together to get 5

Multiply together to get -24

Can you think of the two numbers?

Try -3 and 8:

-3+8 = 5

-3*8 = -24

Fill in the blanks in

(x+_)(x+_)

with -3 and 8 to get...

(x-3)(x+8)

The International Space Station orbits at an altitude of about 250 miles about Earth’s surface. The radius of Earth is approxima
Hatshy [7]
In this case we are dealing with the pythagorean theorm involving right angled triangles. This theorm states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 which means the square of the hypotenuse (side c, opposite the right angle) is equal to the square of the remaining two sides.

In this case we will say that a = 3963 miles which is the radius of the earth. c is equal to the radius of the earth plus the additional altitude of the space station which is 250 miles; therefore, c = 4213 miles. We must now solve for the value b which is equal to how far an astronaut can see to the horizon.

(3963)^2 + b^2 = (4213)^2
b^2 = 2,044,000
b = 1430 miles.

The astronaut can see 1430 miles to the horizon.
