Question

the distance a person can see is measured in miles by using the formula d= radical symbol 3 over 2 h, where h is the height in feet above sea level. About how many miles can a person see that is 8 feet above sea level? Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a mile.

Answer 1

\[d=\sqrt{3}/2h\]Replacing h with 8 we get
\[d=\sqrt{3}/2\times8\]\[d=\sqrt{3}/16 \approx0.1 miles\]

Answer 2

thank you
