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
Answer:

point slope form....
y - (-7) = -1/2(x-4)
y + 7 = -x/2 + 2
2y + 14 = -x + 4
2y = -x -10
y = -1/2 x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 4 cups in 1 quart. You multiply both of them by 3 so there are 12 cups in 3 quarts
The diameter would be twice 5, or 10
