The British Airways Concorde flew at a height of 60,000 feet. To the nearest mile, about how far could the pilot see when he or
she looked out the window on a clear day? Use the formula d = 1.5 Vh,
where d is the visible distance in miles and h in the height in feet.

Mathematics

Yes, because StartFraction 16 Over 10 EndFraction equals StartFraction 24 Over 15 EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding segments in triangles LKM and LJN are proportional, so the triangles are similar and KM ║ JN.

The other "yes" choice does not properly show corresponding segments, so actually makes a false claim. It is not true that 16/10 = 15/24.
