Answer:

about 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Drawing the right triangle, we see that the shorter leg is 34 meters, and the longer leg is 122 meters. So the angle of elevation is:

\tan( \alpha )  =  \frac{34}{122}

\alpha  =  { \tan }^{ - 1}  \frac{34}{122}  = 15.57

Event the die comes up at most 2
hjlf
X. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6 are all the possible events when rolling a die. If it is a fair die then the probability of rolling any number is 1/6. So the probability of rolling at most a two is p(1)+ p(2)= 2/6 or 1/3

Why does a horizontal line have a slope of 0, but a vertical line has anundened slope?
aleksley [76]
<span>The slope of a line is defined as the rate of change on the vertical axis, divided by the rate of change on the horizontal axis, Δy/Δx. So for a horizontal line, the rate of change on the y axis is zero, this means that it's slope will be 0/Δx and for vertical line, x-axis does not change, which make the denominator 0 Δy/0.</span>

If other factors are held constant, what happens to a confidence interval if the sample variance increases? The range of t score
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The standard error increases and the width of the interval increases

Step-by-step explanation:

The variance is equal to the square of the standard deviation. An increase in variance will increase the standard deviation.

The width of the confidence interval can be defined as:

W=UL-LL=2z\sigma/\sqrt{n}

The width is proportional to the standard deviation, so when the variance increases, the standard deviation and also the width of the interval increases.
