The International Space Station orbits at an altitude of about 250 miles about Earth’s surface. The radius of Earth is approxima
Hatshy [7]
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.

Max has 5.50. He has eight more quarters than he does nickels. He had four times as many dimes as he has nickels. How many quart
Oliga [24]

Answer:

<h2>There are 13 quarters, 5 nickels and 20 dimes.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • Max has $5.50.
  • He has eight more quarters than he does nickels.
  • He had four times as many dimes as he has nickels.

From these statements, we can deduce algebraical expressions to solve the problem. Let's call q quarters, n nickels and d dimes.

q=n+8 (8 more quarters than nickels)

d=4n (he has four times as many dimes as he has nickels).

0.25q+0.05n+0.10d=5.50 (Max has a total of $5.50, one quartes is $0.25, one nickel is $0.05 and one dime is $0.10).

Let's replace the first two expressions into the third equation

0.25(n+8)+0.05n+0.10(4n)=5.50\\0.25n+2+0.05n+0.40n=5.50\\0.70n=5.50-2\\n=\frac{3.50}{0.70}\\ n=5

There are 5 nickels.

Now, we use this value to find the number of quarters

q=5+8=13

There are 13 quarters.

Also, d=4(5)=20

There are 20 dimes.

Therefore, there are 13 quarters, 5 nickels and 20 dimes.

Solve the system of equation
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

plain = $10.50

pepperoni = $12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

x = pepperoni

y = plain

3x + 2y = 58.5

2x + 4y = 67

using substitution method, I multiplied the first system by -2 to get:

   -6x - 4y = -117

+   2x + 4y =  67

-4x = -50

x = $12.50

2(12.5) + 4y = 67

25 + 4y = 67

4y = 42

y = $10.50

Triangle $ABC$ has a right angle at $B$. Legs $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{CB}$ are extended past point $B$ to points $D$ and
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Given :

ABC is a right triangle in which ∠ABC = 90°,

Also, Legs AB and CB are extended past point B to points D and E,

Such that,

\angle EAC = \angle ACD = 90^{\circ}

To prove :

EB\times BD=AB\times BC

Proof :

In triangles AEC and EBA,

∠EAC= ∠ABE ( right angles )

∠CEA = ∠AEB ( common angles )

By AA similarity postulate,

\triangle AEC \sim \triangle EBA,

Similarly,

\triangle AEC \sim \triangle ABC

\implies\triangle EBA\sim \triangle ABC-----(1)

Now, In triangles ADC and CBD,

∠ACD = ∠CBD ( right angles )

∠ADC= ∠BDC ( common angles )

By AA similarity postulate,

\triangle ADC \sim \triangle CBD,

Similarly,

\triangle ADC \sim \triangle ABC

\implies \triangle CBD\sim \triangle ABC-----(2)

From equations (1) and (2),

\triangle EBA\sim \triangle CBD

The corresponding sides of similar triangles are in same proportion,

\frac{EB}{BC}=\frac{AB}{BD}

\implies EB\times BD=AB\times BC

Hence, proved....
