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.
Answer:
The total number of people at the stadium is 5,500
Step-by-step explanation:
2% of the fans in attendance were teenagers
if there were 110 teenagers at the football stadium
what is the total number of people at the stadium?
Let x = total number of people at the stadium
2% of x = 110
2/100 * x = 110
0.02x = 110
Divide both sides by 0.02
x = 110 / 0.02
= 5,500
x = 5,500
The total number of people at the stadium is 5,500
