Answer:

The elevation to the top of the building from the point on the ground where the shopper is standing is = 17.35°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the ΔABC

AB = height of the building = 250 feet

BC = 800 ft

Angle of elevation = \theta

\tan \theta = \frac{AB}{BC}

\tan \theta = \frac{250}{800}

\tan \theta = 0.3125

\theta = 17.35°

Therefore the elevation to the top of the building from the point on the ground where the shopper is standing is = 17.35°

Find the second derivative y= x^2lnx
Dimas [21]
First we use product rule
y=x^2lnx
dy/dx = x^2 d/dx (lnx) + lnx d/dx (x^2)
dy/dx = x^2 (1/x) + lnx (2x)
dy/dx = x + 2xlnx

now taking second derivative:
d2y/dx2 = 1 + 2[x (1/x) + lnx (1)]
d2y/dx2 = 1 + 2[1+lnx]
         1+2+2lnx
         3+2lnx is the answer

A research group needs to determine a 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for all car insurance small claims. From
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

a) z = 1.645

b) The should sample at least 293 small claims.

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{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

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 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645, which means that the answer of question a is z = 1.645.

Now, find  the margin of error 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.

(b) If the group wants their estimate to have a maximum error of $12, how many small claims should they sample?

They should sample at least n small claims, in which n is found when

M = 12, \sigma = 124.88. So

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

12 = 1.645*\frac{124.88}{\sqrt{n}}

12\sqrt{n} = 205.43

\sqrt{n} = \frac{205.43}{12}

\sqrt{n} = 17.12

\sqrt{n}^{2} = (17.12)^{2}

n = 293

The should sample at least 293 small claims.
