Question 1201850: A rocket is launched from the surface of the Earth. The surface of the Earth can be modelled by the equation x2+y2 = 6400 squared where the units are in km.
The path of the rocket can be modelled by the equation y = 8000 - x2/2500

A rocket is launched from the surface of the Earth. The surface of the Earth can be modelled
by the equation x2+y2 = 6400 squared where the units are in km.
The path of the rocket can be modelled by the equation y = 8000 - x2/2500.
Find the co-ordinates of where the rocket takes off and where it lands.

If you mean real Earth as we know it as a 3D solid in space,
then it is NOT modelled by the equation + = .
It is modelled by equation + + = .
So, I can not consider your "problem" seriously.
If you mean something different from my interpretation, then your wording should/must be precise and adequate.
