The tree is 20 m tall .

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Given : </h2>
  • 2m tall tree cast a shadow 4 m long .

=> 2 m tree = 4 m long

If we find shadow of 1 m tall tree = 4/2

=> we have to find height of 10 m tall tree which is .. = 4/2 × 10 = > 20 m

In a study of parents' perceptions of their children's size, researchers asked parents to estimate their youngest child's height
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Test statistic t=6.505

P-value=0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that parents tend to underestimate their youngest child's size.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=0\\\\H_a:\mu> 0

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample has a size n=39.

The sample mean is M=7.5.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=7.2.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{7.2}{\sqrt{39}}=1.153

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{7.5-0}{1.153}=\dfrac{7.5}{1.153}=6.505

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=39-1=38

This test is a right-tailed test, with 38 degrees of freedom and t=6.505, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

P-value=P(t>6.505)=0

As the P-value (0) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is  enough evidence to support the claim that parents tend to underestimate their youngest child's size.

If it takes you 40 minutes to go 20 miles downstream and then 60 minutes on the way back, what is the speed of the current?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Speed of Current = 5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We know distance formula,

D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

T is time

If we let speed of boat (assume) to be "x" and speed of current to be "c"

Then downstream rate is (with current) = x + c

Upstream rate is (against current) = x - c

40 mins to go 20 miles downstream, that means:

D = RT

20 = (x + c)(40)

and

60 minutes to go upstream, 20 miles, that means:

D = RT

20 = (x - c)(60)

Simplifying first equation:

40x + 40c = 20

Simplifying second equation:

60x - 60c = 20

Multiplying first equation by 60, we get:

60 * [40x + 40c = 20] = 2400x + 2400c = 1200

Multiplying second equation by 40, we get:

40 * [60x - 60c = 20] = 2400x - 2400c = 800

Now we add up both these equations:

2400x + 2400c = 1200

2400x - 2400c = 800

----------------------------------

4800x = 2000

x = 2000/4800 = 5/12

We need speed of current, that is "c", so we plug in the value of x into first equation and solve for c:

40x + 40c = 20\\40(\frac{5}{12}) + 40c = 20\\\frac{50}{3}+40c=20\\40c=20-\frac{50}{3}\\40c=\frac{10}{3}\\c=\frac{1}{12}

Speed of Current = 1/12 miles per minute

Since there is 60 minutes in an hours, that would be:

(1/12) * 60 = 5 miles per hour

Speed of Current = 5 miles per hour
