The farthest distance on the planet that the eye can see is given by the formula d=\sqrt{8,000h_1} + \sqrt{8,000h_2}

h_1= your first height and h_2=your second height

Since h_1=5 or the height of the periscope over the water and h_2=50 for the height of the ship the answer is 832.45553203368 feet, but because the question asks to the nearest mile the answer would be 11^a^0

If you get it wrong just tell me and I will rework my math again :-)

Elio makes candles that are 14 cm tall. Each candle burns 8 hours before going out. He is wondering how many hours a 21 cm tall
Usimov [2.4K]
(burn time)/(8 h) = (21 cm)/(14 cm)
burn time = (8 h)*(21/14)
burn time = 12 h

Elio expects the 21 cm candle to burn 12 hours.

Which describes how to graph h (x) = negative RootIndex StartRoot x + 8 EndRoot by transforming the parent function?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Reflect the parent function over the x-axis, and translate it 8 units to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y =  -  \sqrt{x + 8}

The parent function is

y =  \sqrt{x}

Since there is a negative multiply the transformed function, there is a reflection in the x-axis.

Since 8 is adding, within the square root, there is a horizontal translation of 8 units to the left.

Therefore to graph the given function, reflect the parent function over the x-axis, and translate it 8 units to the left.

Clarissa's income puts her in the bottom tax bracket (10%) last year. During the same year, she earned $250 in dividends and $75
Art [367]

Answer:

75 in coupons.

250 in dividends.

profit of 600 - 425 = 175 from her stock investment.  

her total income is 250 + 75 + 175 = 500.  

if all of this is taxed at 10%, then her tax will be 500 * .1 = 50.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Math properties the programmer had put into the software. The majority of programming software is based in math.

Step-by-step explanation:

The other 3 possible answers make no sense.

1. Pixels with red, green, and blue switches - Seriously???

2. Code randomly created by programmers - Seriously???

3. The fundamental properties of physics which consist of numbers and constants (numbers and constants are the same thing and physics has virtually nothing to do with programming)
