the north pole is in the middle of the ocean. A person at sea level at the north pole would be 3,949 miles from the center of th

e earth. The sea floor below the north pole is at an elevation of approximately -2.4 miles. The elevation of the south pole is about 1.7 miles. How far is a person standing on the south pole from a submarine at the sea floor below the north pole?

Answer:

7,897.30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the North Pole is at a distance of 3,949 miles from the center of the earth.

We also know that the sea floor is below 2.4 miles from the sea level.

It is given that a submarine is located at the sea floor near North Pole. Hence, the distance of the submarine from the center of the earth would be

3949 - 2.4 = 3946.6 miles.

On the other hand, the South Pole is given to be at an elevation of 1.7 miles from the sea level.

Since we know that the sea level is at a distance of 3949 miles from the center of the earth, we can immediately calculate the distance of the South Pole from the center of the earth to be

3949 + 1.7 = 3950.7 miles.

Putting all of this together, we see that the center of the earth is at a distance of 3946.6 miles from the submarine near the North Pole, and the center of the earth in turn is 3950.7 miles from the South Pole.

Hence, the distance between the submarine and a person on the South Pole = 3946.6 + 3950.7 = 7897.3 miles.

For math Equations what is 4x + 5 = x + 8??
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for a variable, you need to get the variable on one side of the equation, and by itself.

4x + 5 = x + 8

4x = x + 3 --- subtract 5 from both sides

3x = 3 --- subtract x from both sides

x = 1 --- divide both sides by 3

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

a) P(c) = xc² + yc + z, and P(.15) = $124, P(.05) = 0, P(.17) = 0. Thus:

(#1) .0225x + .15y + z = 124

(#2) .0025x + .05y + z = 0

(#3) .0289x + .17y + z = 0

Subtracting #2 from #3: (#4) .0264x + .12y = 0

Subtracting #2 from #3: (#5) .02x + .1y = 124

Subtracting 1.2×#5 from #4: .0024x = -148.8 → x= -62000

Using this value of x in #5: -1240 + .1y = 124 → y = 13640

Using x and y in #1: -1395 + 2046 + z = 124 → z = -527

P(c) = -62000c² + 13640c - 527

b) To find the maximum of P(c), find a such that P'(a) = 0

-124000c + 13640 = 0

c = .11

At this price, his profit would be $223.20

Given options : Two intersecting circles are drawn with a radius in each marked. the image will be linked.

Given options : An equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle

A square inscribed in a circle

A regular pentagon inscribed in a circle

A regular hexagon inscribed in a circle.

<u>Note. When we join an intersection point of two circles and centers of the circles it would form an equilateral triangle that would be inscribe inside a common portion of both circles..</u>

Therefore, an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle would be correct option.

She is completing an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle.
