The diagram shows Earth represented by circle O , a satellite at point B , and AB¯¯¯¯¯¯ tangent to circle O . AB is 21,800 mi. The radius of Earth is about 4,000 miles. What is the approximate distance from the satellite to the surface at point C ? Explain.
The image shows Earth represented by circle with centre O, a satellite is placed at point B and AB is tangent to the circle. O and B are joined which is having point C marked on circumference. Points O and A are joined.

A. 18,164 miles; AB¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a tangent and OA¯¯¯¯¯¯ and OC¯¯¯¯¯¯ are radii. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find BO and subtract OC to find the distance the satellite is from the surface.
B. 22,164 miles; AB¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a tangent and OA¯¯¯¯¯¯ and OC¯¯¯¯¯¯ are radii. Use the point of tangency theorem to find the distance the satellite is from the surface.
C. 17,430 miles; AB¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a tangent and OA¯¯¯¯¯¯ and OC¯¯¯¯¯¯ are radii. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find BO and subtract CB to find the distance the satellite is from the surface.

(c) compare the results of parts (a) and (b). in general, how do you think the mode, median, and mean are affected when each data value in a set is multiplied by the same constant? multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean increasing by a factor of c. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean remaining the same. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean decreasing by a factor of c. there is no distinct pattern when each data value is multiplied by the same constant. (d) suppose you have information about average heights of a random sample of airline passengers. the mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 65 inches. to convert the data into centimeters, multiply each data value by 2.54. what are the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters? (enter your answers to two decimal places.) mode cm median cm mean cm in this problem, we explore the effect on the mean, median, and mode of multiplying each data value by the same number. consider the following data set 7, 7, 8, 11, 15. (a) compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = (b) multiply 3 to each of the data values. compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = --
