Answer:

The distance of Satelite from the earth's surface = 2720.12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is the calculation for distance:

Use Pythagorean theorem

Distance, d² = 5400² + 4000²

d² = 45160000

d = 6720.12

Subtract the radius to find the distance from earth's surface.

Distance = 6720.12 - 4000 = 2720.12

The distance of Satelite from the earth's surface = 2720.12 miles

Which of the following equations does not represent a linear relationship between x and y
Ksenya-84 [330]

A linear relationship is an equation that has a constant slope

The equation that does not represent a linear relationship is (b) y = 2x^2 + 5x

<h3>How to determine the non-linear relationship</h3>

A linear equation can take any of the following forms:

y = mx + b

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Ax + By = c

Any form different from the above forms is not a linear equation

Using the above format as a guide, the equation that does not represent a linear relationship is (b) y = 2x^2 + 5x

4vir4ik [10]
The answer is <span>c. 25
</span> 
<span>sin(ϴ + 15) = cos(2ϴ)
</span>sin(ϴ + 15) =sin(25 + 15) =<span>sin(40) =0.64
</span>cos(2ϴ)=cos(2x25)=<span>cos(50)=0.64

The length of a rectangle is 12 inches more than its width. The perimeter is 280 inches. Find the length and the width of the re
miss Akunina [59]
Use the equation p=2l+2w and sub everything in to get 280=2l+2(l+12).
distribute the 2 for 280=2l+2l+24.
add/subtract like terms over, leaving you with 256=4l.
divide the 4 from 256, resulting in l=64.
since w=l+12, add 12 to 64 to find that w=76.
basically, l=64 and w=76.
hope this helps!
