Probably y = 8x. 56 = 8(7), so that works. Without more data, I couldn't say if it could be something else, so that's what I go with.
G, the y-intercept will not be 3
Answer:
it has one root x=2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Sara multiplied by 3 when she should have multiplied by 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
21 : 7*8
7*8 = 56
21 : 56
The simplest form of this ratio is 3 : 8
In this case we are dealing with the pythagorean theorm involving right angled triangles. This theorm states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 which means the square of the hypotenuse (side c, opposite the right angle) is equal to the square of the remaining two sides.
In this case we will say that a = 3963 miles which is the radius of the earth. c is equal to the radius of the earth plus the additional altitude of the space station which is 250 miles; therefore, c = 4213 miles. We must now solve for the value b which is equal to how far an astronaut can see to the horizon.
(3963)^2 + b^2 = (4213)^2
b^2 = 2,044,000
b = 1430 miles.
The astronaut can see 1430 miles to the horizon.
