They would be 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24
Answer:
1,75 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
3 miles ______26 minutes
1 miles =>26 :3 =8,5 (8 minutes and 5 seconds)
15:8,5 =1,75 miles
Answer:
<-7,3> and 157 degrees
got it right :) hope this helped
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.
