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:
x={-3/2,-13/2}
Step-by-step explanation:
3-2|x+4|+3=1
-2|x+4|+6=1
-2|x+4|=-5
|x+4|=5/2
x+4=5/2
x+4=-5/2
x=5/2-4
x=-3/2
x=-5/2-4
x=-13/2
I don't know how you want it solved but, I am giving u -2 I hope this helps
Let X be a random variable representing the mean gray scale of each pixel.
P(110 ≤ X ≤ 140) = P(X < 140) - P(X < 110) = P(z < (140 - 125)/15) - P(z < (110 - 125)/15) = P(z < 1) - P(z < -1) = P(z < 1) - [1 - P(z < 1)] = 2P(z < 1) - 1 = 2(0.84134) - 1 = 1.68268 - 1 = 0.68268
Number of pixels that have gray scale of between 110 and 140 = 0.68268 x 1000000 = 682680 = approximately 680,000
Question 1 - about half of what the white soldiers earned
Question 2 - They were the first all-African American civil war regiment
