John Muir was an American naturalist born in Scotland on April 21, 1838. As one of the first advocates of the United States' wilderness preservation, Muir spent his career writing letters, essays and books about many of his experiences in the Sierra Nevada mountains, located in northern California. Muir's influence on the history of American wilderness continues to live on past his death (in the early twentieth century) as people of all ages visit and hike through the 221 miles of the John Muir Trail, named in Muir's honor. The trail begins in Yosemite National Park and concludes at Mount Whitney, which contains the highest peak of the continental United States.


The following table compares Mount Whitney"s height, in meters, to other monumental peaks of the world.


MOUNTAIN: LOCATION: HEIGHT (in meters):
Mount Whitney: California, United States: 4,418.38 meters
Mount Fuji: Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, Japan: 3,775.86 meters
Mount Everest: Great Himalayas of southern Asia: 8,849.87 meters
Mount Kilimanjaro: Tanzania, Africa: 5,894.83 meters
Mount Olympus: Mytikas, Greece: 2,919.07 meters

Use the data in the table to complete Parts A, B, and C. In your final answers, include your work for all estimates and calculations.

Part A:
Use scientific notation to estimate the following:
How many times greater is Mount Everest's highest peak than Mount Olympus's?

Part B:
Use scientific notation to calculate the following:
How many times greater is Mount Everest's highest peak than Mount Olympus's?

Part C:
Given the calculation in Part B comparing the highest peaks of Mount Everest and Mount Olympus, can you conclude that the estimate in Part A is reasonable? Answer in complete sentences.

if PQ || RS and the slope of PQ= x-1/4 and the slope of RS is 3/8 then find the value of x justify algebraically and numerically
Artemon [7]

The value of x is 5/8.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Given,

  • The lines PQ and RS are parallel to each other.
  • slope of PQ= x-1/4
  • slope of RS = 3/8

The slopes of parallel lines are equal.

slope of PQ = slope of RS

⇒ x-1/4 = 3/8

⇒ (4x-1)/4 = 3/8

⇒ 8(4x-1) = 4(3)

⇒ 32x-8 = 12

⇒ 32x = 20

x = 20/32

x = 5/8

A shoe store is having a sale. A pair of sandals has an original price of $42. They are on sale for 30% off the original price.
professor190 [17]
30% of 42 is 12.6$.
42-12.6 = 29.4$ is the price of the pair with discount applied.
Tax 7%
29.4 * 7% = 2.06
29.4$ + 2.06$ = 31.46 $ final price with discount and tax applied.

Find c such that (−3,−8), (−7,−6), and (c,4) lie on a line.
bearhunter [10]
If the 3 points are collinear, then the slopes of all line segments connecting the points are the same.

Thus,

-6 - (-8) 2
m = ------------- = -------- = -1/2
-7 - (-3) -4

Then the following must be true:

4-(-6) 10
-1/2 = ------------ = ---------
c - (-7) c + 7

Cross multiplying, -(c+7) = 20, and c+7 = -20, so that c = -27

I need help with this question I will give brainliest
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for there to be a right triangle formed, this must satisfy pythagoran's theorm thingy:

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+15^2=274

22^2= 484

since 274 isnt equal to 484

There is not a right triangle formed here
