The flag pole is 20 feet tall with an 8 foot shadow.

The tree is X feet tall with a 12 foot shadow.

20/8 = X/12

Cross multiply:

20 * 12 / 8*X

240 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8:

x = 240/8

x = 30

The tree is 30 feet tall.

consider the following scenario: Assume daily protein intake values in a population of athletes are known to have a standard dev
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean daily protein intake is between 69.97g and 84.03g.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{58.6}{\sqrt{267}} = 7.03

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 77 - 7.03 = 69.97g.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 77 + 7.03 = 84.03g.

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean daily protein intake is between 69.97g and 84.03g.

Make slope intercept
3x - y = 5
3x = y + 5
y = 3x - 5
Parallel = same slope
Slope = 3
Y = 3x + b
Plug in the point
-2 = 3(-1) + b
-2 = -3 + b, b = 1

Solution: y = 3x + 1
