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.
Answer:
Mean absolute deviation is the average of the absolute deviations from the mean. It is a measure of variability, which gives us an idea about the spread of data points from mean. Therefore, the small MAD means the data points are less deviated from mean. And the large MAD means the data points are more deviated from mean.
Hence, smaller the MAD lesser the variation in data.
Answer:
4 ft 2 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
A door to a playhouse is 50 inches tall
we know that
1 in---------------> is 0.0833333 ft
so
50 in-------------> 50*0.0833333---------> 4.167 ft
4.167 ft----------> [4 ft+0.167 ft]
remember that
1 in---------------> is 0.0833333 ft
X in----------------> 0.167 ft
X=0.167/0.0833333----------> X=2 in
4.167 ft----------> [4 ft+0.167 ft]--------> [4 ft+2 in]
Answer:
352 square yards is the answer
