20. SPACE TRAVEL The distance to the horizon d miles from a satellite orbiting h miles above Earth can be
approximated by d= 78000h + h2. What is the distance to the horizon if a satellite is orbiting 150 miles above
Earth?

Respuesta :

Answer:

d = 1192500

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Substitute 150 for h

d = 78000h + h^2

d = 78000(15) + (150)^2

d = 1170000 + 22500

d = 1192500

Answer:  d = 1192500
