Answer:

h=404.89

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for side h, which is opposite of the observer. We know that the side adjacent to the observer is 500 feet. We also know that the angle from the observer to the bird is 39°. Because we have these values, SOH CAH TOA tells us that we should use tangent, opposite over adjacent.

We can set up our equation as follows:

tan(39°)=h/500

We can then solve for h:

500*tan(39°)=h

h=404.89

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is H_0: p \leq x, in which x is the proportion tested.

The alternative hypothesis is H_1: p > x

Step-by-step explanation:

A recent article in a university newspaper claimed that the proportion of students who commute more than miles to school is no more than x.

This means that at the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at most x, that is:

H_0: p \leq x

Suppose that we suspect otherwise and carry out a hypothesis test.

The opposite of at most x is more than x, so the alternative hypothesis is:

H_1: p > x
