We have been given that professional plumbers suggest that a sewer pipe should be sloped 0.25 inch for every foot.
Therefore, we can find the slope as:
Therefore, the recommended slope for a sewer pipe is
In kilometers, the approximate distance to the earth's horizon from a point h meters above the surface can be determined by evaluating the expression
We are given the height h of a person from surface of sea level to be 350 m and we are to find the the distance to horizon d. Using the value in above expression we get:
Therefore, the approximate distance to the horizon for the person will be 64.81 km
The multiplier to get from 6 * ... to 15 is 15/6.
If 6 * 15/6 = 15, then 20 * 15/6 = 50, answer B.
