Question 324453: solve for the value of h in D=1.2h and h is inside of the square symbol. Also how far can you see at a distance of 14,255 in elevation. Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Do you mean D = 1.2?
If so, D = distance and h = height
Divide both sides by 1.2.
D/1.2 =
Square both sides to find h.
(D/1.2)^2 = []^2
D^2/1.44 = h
=============================
To find how far a person can see, replace h with 14255 in the original equation and solve for D.
D = 1.2
D = 143.27 feet
