The distance between the Earth's surface and the upper edge of the Earth's atmosphere would be Q - V.
The distance from the Sun to the Earth is Q. The distance from the Sun to the upper edge of the atmosphere is V. If you subtract V from Q, the remaining distance is that of the Earth's atmosphere. Q - V = the atmosphere
Answer:
Choice b.
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The highest power of the variable
in this polynomial is
. In other words, this polynomial is quadratic.
It is thus possible to apply the quadratic formula to find the "roots" of this polynomial. (A root of a polynomial is a value of the variable that would set the polynomial to
.)
After finding these roots, it would be possible to factorize this polynomial using the Factor Theorem.
Apply the quadratic formula to find the two roots that would set this quadratic polynomial to
. The discriminant of this polynomial is
.
.
Similarly:
.
By the Factor Theorem, if
is a root of a polynomial, then
would be a factor of that polynomial. Note the minus sign between
and
.
- The root
corresponds to the factor
, which simplifies to
. - The root
corresponds to the factor
, which simplifies to
.
Verify that
indeed expands to the original polynomial:
.
The area of a triangle could be determined using the following formula

plug in the numbers



a = 126
The area of the triangle is 126 square meters
You would multiply 2 1/2 and 3 3/4, which would give you 9.375 or as a mixed number 9 7/8
