Answer:

208.8 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Form a triangle with the centre of the Earth (C) at one point, the horizon (H) as a second point, and the top of Mt. Everest (O) as the third (see diagram).

Let

r = Earth’s radius

h = height of Mt Everest

d = distance to horizon

∆CHO is a right triangle.

d² + r² = (r+h)²

d² + 3959² = (3959+5.5)²

d² + 15 673 681 = 3964.5²

d² + 15 673 681 = 15 717 260 Subtract 15 673 681 from each side

d² = 43 579 Take the square root of each side

d = 208.8 mi

The distance from the top of Mt Everest to the horizon is 208.8 mi.

Answer:

(-6,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

So there actually is really easy way to solve this problem(that many people will never teach you for some weird reason).

Find difference between two points first in x and y direction.

X difference = (-3 - (-8)) = 5

Y difference = (-1 - (-6)) = 5

Multiply 2/5 to each difference

X difference 5 * 2/5 = 2

y difference 5* 2/5 = 2

just add the two number to First point(point A)

-8 + 2 = -6

-6 + 2 = -4

(-6,-4)

Plz help asap !! The high school jazz band is selling homemade leather bracelets at a local craft fair to raise money for a trip

torisob [31]

Answer:

y = 2x - 200

Step-by-step explanation:

The function type that would model this relationship is linear because for each bracelet sold, the jazz band would increase their profit by $2. Since it has a consistent rate, it is linear. Using the slope-intercept formula of y = mx + b, where 'm' is the rate and 'b' is the initial value, you can use $2 for the rate or cost per bracelet and -$200 for the initial value or cost of supplies:

y = 2x - 200, where '2' is the cost per bracelet, 'x' the number of bracelets sold, '-200' is the cost for supplies and 'y' is the profit.
