Answer: 20.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

(image attached for reference)

To find how high the ladder reaches on the wall, first find the relationship between the angle and the wall. The wall is opposite to the angle, so it's possible to solve this equation using sin(58). Sine equals opposite over hypotenuse so sin(58) = x/24. Multiply 24 on both sides to get an equation that can be plugged into a calculator of 24sin(58) = x.

24sin(58) = 20.35, which gets rounded up to a final answer of 20.4 feet.

With a little care, you can find the median and the quartiles from the histogram. what are these numbers? you can also find the
coldgirl [10]

Complete Question

The histogram from this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The first quartile is  1st Q = 19^{th} girl (subject ) = 1 \serving\ of\ fruit\ per\ day

The median is   Median  = 38 ^{th} \ girl (subject) =  2 \serving\ of\ fruit\ per\ day

The third quartile  is 3rd Q =  56^{th} \  girl (subject) = 4 \serving\ of\ fruit\ per\ day  

The  mean is  \= x = 2.62

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The total  number of girls is n =  74

Generally the median is mathematically represented as

       Median  =  \frac{\frac{n}{2}  +[ \frac{n}{2} + 1]  }{2}

So

          Median  =  \frac{\frac{74}{2}  +[ \frac{74}{2} + 1]  }{2}

=>         Median  =  \frac{37  +38 }{2}

=>         Median  =37.5 \  girl    

From the histogram 37.5 \approx 38^{th} \ girl fall under 2 fruits per day

Generally the first quartile is mathematically represented as

      1st \ Q =  \frac{\frac{n}{4} + [\frac{n}{4} + 1]  }{2}

=>    1st \ Q =  \frac{\frac{74}{4} + [\frac{74}{4} + 1]  }{2}

=>     1st \ Q = 19 \  girl

From the histogram 19^{th}girl fall under 1 fruit per day

 Generally the third quartile is mathematically represented as

     3rd\  Q =  \frac{\frac{n}{2}  + n }{2}

=>    3rd\  Q =  \frac{\frac{74}{2}  + 74 }{2}

=>    3rd\  Q =  55.5

From the histogram 55.5 \approx 56^{th} \ girl fall under 4 fruits per day

Generally from the histogram table the frequency  [number of subjects (girls) ]  and the servings of fruit per day can be represented as

                                                                                                               Total

x(servings per day )        0     1     2     3     4     5    6     7      8    

f (number of subjects )   15    11   15     11    8     5    3     3      3    \sum f  =  74

xf                                       0    11    30   33   32  25   18   21     24    \sum xf =  194

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

      \= x = \frac{1}{ \sum f}  * [\sum xf]

=>     \= x = \frac{1}{ 74}  *194

=>      \= x = 2.62
