A person stands 15 ft from an elephant. Determine how tall the elephant is in feet, the given diagram.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The height of the elephant is $\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between a person and an elephant is 15 ft

The angle of elevation of the elephant is 30 degrees.

We need to find the height of the elephant. For this let us consider that height is h. So,

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{P}{B}\\\\\tan(30)=\dfrac{h}{15}\\\\h=15\times \tan(30)\\\\h=\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft$

So, the height of the elephant is $\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft$ .

A teacher wants to know whether the students in the entire school prefer watching television or playing outdoor games after scho

D. All students in each grade. It can't be A since the survey is for the students, it defeats the purpose. It can't be B and C since those are too biased. Basing the student population on one factor like gender and sports is not logical in the context of this survey.

An urn contains 8 red chips, 10 green chips, and 2 white chips. A chip is drawn and replaced, and then a second chip is drawn.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

(A) 0.04

(B) 0.25

(C) 0.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let R = drawing a red chips, G = drawing green chips and W = drawing white chips.

Given:

R = 8, G = 10 and W = 2.

Total number of chips = 8 + 10 + 2 = 20

$P(R) = \frac{8}{20}=\frac{2}{5}\\P(G)= \frac{10}{20}=\frac{1}{2}\\P(W)= \frac{2}{20}=\frac{1}{10}$

As the chips are replaced after drawing the probability of selecting the second chip is independent of the probability of selecting the first chip.

(A)

Compute the probability of selecting a white chip on the first and a red on the second as follows:

$P(1^{st}\ white\ chip, 2^{nd}\ red\ chip)=P(W)\times P(R)\\=\frac{1}{10}\times \frac{2}{5}\\ =\frac{1}{25} \\=0.04$

Thus, the probability of selecting a white chip on the first and a red on the second is 0.04.

(B)

Compute the probability of selecting 2 green chips:

$P(2\ Green\ chips)=P(G)\times P(G)\\=\frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2}\\ =\frac{1}{4}\\ =0.25$

Thus, the probability of selecting 2 green chips is 0.25.

(C)

Compute the conditional probability of selecting a red chip given the first chip drawn was white as follows:

$P(2^{nd}\ red\ chip|1^{st}\ white\ chip)=\frac{P(2^{nd}\ red\ chip\ \cap 1^{st}\ white\ chip)}{P (1^{st}\ white\ chip)} \\=\frac{P(2^{nd}\ red\ chip)P(1^{st}\ white\ chip)}{P (1^{st}\ white\ chip)} \\= P(R)\\=\frac{2}{5}\\=0.40$

Thus, the probability of selecting a red chip given the first chip drawn was white is 0.40.
