The length of the bridge is 12.12 feet.

The length the dog swam is 32.36 feet.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>What is a right angle triangle?</h3>

A right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. Therefore, the sides and angle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

The length of the bridge is the opposite side of the triangle and the length the dog swim is the hypotenuse side of the triangle.

Therefore,

Let's find the length of the bridge as follows:

tan 68° = opposite / adjacent

tan 68° = 30 / l

cross multiply

l = 30 / tan 68

l = 12.1212121212

length of the bridge = 12.12 ft

The length the dog swim is as follows:

sin 68°= opposite / hypotenuse

sin 68° = 30 / h

h = 30 / sin 68

h = 32.3561767942

The distance the dog swimmed = 32.36 ft

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that mean (μ) = 23 hours, standard deviation (σ) = 10 hours

a) The population is a group of self employed home based workers while the variable is the number of hours worked per week.

b) The mean of the distribution of sample means (also known as the Expected value of M) is equal to the population mean μ.

\mu_x=\mu=23\ hours

The standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is called the Standard Error of M, it is given by:

\sigma_x=\sigma/\sqrt{n} =\frac{10}{\sqrt{100} }=1

c) \mu_x=\mu=23\ hours

\sigma_x=\sigma/\sqrt{n} =\frac{10}{\sqrt{1000} }=0.32

d) The sample size has no effect on the mean, hence increasing the sample size does not change the mean.

The square root of sample size is inversely proportional to the standard deviation therefore increasing the sample size reduces the standard deviation.
