D = 5/6 sqrt(h)
7 = 5/6 sqrt(h)
42/5 = sqrt(h)
h = (42/5)^2 = 1,764/25 = 70.56

The height of the mast is 70.56 miles

A system of equations is given below:
My name is Ann [436]
Solving by substitution:

y = 4x - 3 

2x + 7y = 41

Let us substitute the first equation y = 4x - 3  into the second.

2x + 7y = 41

2x + 7(y = 4x -3) = 41

2x + 7(4x -3) = 41

So that's the third option.

I hope this helps.

What Is The Estimated Weight Of Three Containers Weighing 1.656 kg each? (Math 5 Quarter 2, Week 5) I Need A Nice And Clear Answ
Annette [7]

Answer:

Estimate = 5.0kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Weight = 1.656kg

Required

Determine the estimated for 3 containers

Since the weight of all containers are the same, we simply multiply the given weight by the number of containers.

i.e.

Estimate = Number\ of\ containers * Weight\ of\ each

Estimate = 3 * 1.656kg

Estimate = 4.968kg

Estimate = 5.0kg --- approximated

<em>So, the estimated weight is 5.0kg</em>
