Answer:
Plane B is closer.
The distance for Plane A is 7.9 km.
The distance for Plane B is 7.4 km.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance to the tower, altitude must be converted to kilometers. Each 1000 ft is 0.3048 km, so the heights of the planes are ...
-- Plane A: (20 thousand ft)*(0.3048 km/thousand ft) = 6.096 km
-- Plane B: (8 thousand ft)*(0.3048 km/thousand ft) = 2.4384 km
The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the distance from each plane to the tower:
-- distance = √((ground distance)² + (height)²)
-- Plane A distance = √(5² +6.096²) ≈ √62.16 ≈ 7.9 . . . km
-- Plane B distance = √(7² +2.4384²) ≈ √54.95 ≈ 7.4 . . . km
The distance for Plane B is shorter, so Plane B is closer to the tower.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
temp = -3(hours)
-33=-3(hours)
hours=11
Answer:
m = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope Formula: 
Simply plug in our coordinates to find slope:
m = (11 - 2)/(5 - 8)
m = 9/-3
m = -3
