The area of the circle is equal to the area of the polygon
First isolate x by multiplying by x on both sides. It will look like this:
(2/3)x=1.2
Then devise by (2/3) on both sides to get:
x= 1.2/(2/3)
The easiest way to get this is plug that into a calculator and get the answer:
x=1.8
We are given
height = 3.7 mi
radius = 3959 mi
We are asked for the distance between the man and the horizon
The straight line from the man to the horizon is a tangent line to the surface of the earth
Using Pythagorean theorem
(3.7 + 3959)² = 3959² + d²
Solve for d
d = 171 mi
Yessssssssssssssssssssssss
Answer:
X intercept: (7/2, 0)
Y intercept: (0, -7/3)
Step-by-step explanation: Add 7 to both sides. We get 2x-3y=7
Now, plug in zero for y, and we are left with 2x = 7 (the y cancels.) Dividing by 2 leaves us 7/2, and (0, 7/2)
Now starting back to 2x-3y=7
Plug in zero for x, and we are legt with -3y = 7 (the x cancels.) Divide by -3, and we get -7/3 and (-7/3, 0)
