Answer 1

Answer:

  126.6751 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent relation can be helpful.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(69°) = (330 ft)/(distance to base)

  distance to base = (330 ft)/tan(69°) ≈ 126.6751 ft

Comment on precision

It would make more sense to round to 4 significant figures. The value of a unit in the fourth decimal place is 0.0001 feet = 0.0012 inches, somewhat less than the thickness of a human hair. We know of no technology that will make a measurement of that distance to that accuracy.

An investigator compares the durability of two different compounds used in the manufacture of a certain automobile brake lining. A sample of 127 brakes using Compound 1 yields an average brake life of 42,814 miles. A sample of 163 brakes using Compound 2 yields an average brake life of 37,197 miles. Assume that the population standard deviation for Compound 1 is 1819 miles, while the population standard deviation for Compound 2 is 1401 miles. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2.

Answers

Answer:

The point estimate is 5,617.

The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.  

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Compound 1:

127 brakes, average brake life of 42,814 miles, population standard deviation of 1819 miles. This means that:

[tex]\mu_1 = 42814[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \frac{1819}{\sqrt{127}} = 161.41[/tex]

Compound 2:

163 brakes, average brake life of 37,197 miles, population standard deviation of 1401 miles. This means that:

[tex]\mu_2 = 37197[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \frac{1401}{\sqrt{163}} = 109.73[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 42814 - 37197 = 5617[/tex]

The point estimate is 5,617.

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{161.41^2 + 109.73^2} = 195.18[/tex]

Confidence interval

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\mu \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

98% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.327[/tex].  

Margin of error:

[tex]M = zs = 195.18*2.327 = 454.18386 [/tex]

The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .

For the confidence interval, as we round to the nearest whole number, we round it 454. So

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]\mu - zs = \mu - M = 5617 - 454 = 5163[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]\mu + zs = \mu + M = 5617 + 454 = 6071[/tex]

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).

if for men working for hours for 4 days complete for unit of work then how many unit of work will be completed by two men working for two hours per day?​

Answers

The 2 men working for 2 hours per 2 days will complete 1/2 unit of work. This is calculated by using the proportions formula.

What is the formula for calculating equal proportions?

The formula for the given proportions is,

a: b = c: d

⇒ a/b = c/d

⇒ ad = bc

In this way, the required variable is calculated.

Calculation:

For the given question, the proportion we can write

M1 × H1 × D1: M2 × H2 × D2 = W1: W2

⇒ M1 × H1 × D1 × W2 = M2 × H2 × D2 × W1

Where M1 = 4; H1 = 4; D1 = 4; M2 = 2; H2 = 2; D2 = 2 and W1 = 4

We need to calculate W2 -  required units of work

So, on substituting,

M1 × H1 × D1 × W2 = M2 × H2 × D2 × W1

⇒ 4 × 4 × 4 × W2 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 4

⇒ 64 × W2 = 32

⇒ W2 = 32/64

∴ W2 = 1/2

Thus, the required units of work are 1/2.

So, 2 men working for 2 hours for 2 days will complete 1/2 unit of work.

A. 9 miles
B. 16 miles
C. 38 miles
D. 48 miles

Answers

Answer:

the answer is B 16 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

so because every 3 cm is 1 mile if to make it to City Hall you would do 7 x 3 which would be 21 cm so you have 7 miles already so to make it to the post office from city hall it would be another 7 miles then 3 more cm and that would be 1 mile so 7 + 7 + 1 = 15 so then the closest number to 15 is 16 I know its right because I did the test and got it right.

Adding the present values for the different ages, we get a total of about 2.35528984846. Dividing the inheritance by that amount gives the multiplier for each of the present value numbers. The result is the list of shares shown above. At age 20, each brother will inherit about 636,864.29.

Members of a population are organized in clusters, each of which is representative of the population, and then whole clusters are randomly selected to make up the sample.
Members of a population are ordered by some characteristic, and then a cluster sample is formed by selecting every kth member.

"Members of a population are organized in clusters, each of which is representative of the population, and then whole clusters are randomly selected to make up the sample"

Step-by-step explanation:

In cluster random sampling, "the population is divided, usually geographically, into groups that generally have the same size.  A certain number of groups are randomly chosen, and every individual in the chosen groups are chosen for the sample."

In accord with this logic, the second choice, "Members of a population are organized in clusters, each of which is representative of the population, and then whole clusters are randomly selected to make up the sample" seems to be correct.

Answers

We need not consider a whole triangle but just point B.

Before reflection we know that [tex]B(5,9)[/tex].

Reflecting B over [tex]y=1[/tex] is relatively easy. First because its a reflection over the horizontal line the only coordinates that will change are y coordinates, while x coordinate will not change so half of the reflection is already done for us,

[tex]B(5,a)[/tex]

Now to what has changed, well currently the distance between 9 and 1 on the y axis is 8 up. But because we are reflecting the a must now be 8 down from 1 which means [tex]1 - 8 = -7[/tex] so our point is now [tex]\boxed{B(5,-7)}[/tex].

Multiply each side by 2

y+2x+3 = 10x

Subtract 2x from each side

y+3 = 10x-2x

y+3 = 8x

Subtract 3

y = 8x-3
