The answer is 44
f(x) = 6*x - 4
f(8) = 6*8 - 4
f(8) = 48 - 4
f(8) = 44

The answer is 44

To find this answer, we replace x with 8 and use PEMDAS (order of operations) to simplify

f(x) = 6*x - 4
f(8) = 6*8 - 4
f(8) = 48 - 4
f(8) = 44

A climber is standing at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, approximately 3.7 mi above sea level. The radius of the Earth is 3959 mi.

RoseWind [281]

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

In this problem, we have that:

We consider that the population of both Beautiful Sunrise and Gorgeous Sunset islands is of x.

There is a fiesta at Beautiful Sunrise, and a number a of people from Gorgeous Sunset are coming, hence, there will be x + a people at Beautiful Sunrise and x - a people t Gorgeous Sunset.

The percentage of people from Gorgeous Sunset is on Beautiful Sunrise now is:

$P = \frac{a}{x} \times 100\%$
