The measurement of x is 3.9999
Answer:
g(f(x)) = -x - 18
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 6( (x + 6) / (2) )
2x - 3( x + 6)
2x - 3x - 18
-x - 18
Answer:
a) no real solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
the discriminant (b² - 4ac) is negative which indicates no real solutions
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.
