If human height were quantized in one-foot increments, what would happen to the height of a child as she grows up?

1 answer:

7 0

I believe what the problem means is that the height of the child, if he/she grows in height, the mesurements are equal to 1 ft, 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, etc only. and no decimals or fractions in between. it is also said that a human stops growing at the age of 20 naturally, hence with this increment, a child can grow incredibly very tall.

Angle RST measures 80 degrees. Ray SU bisects the angle. What is the measure of the two smaller angles?

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Because Angle RST is bisected by ray SU it is then split into two even angles and the resulting two angles will be 40 degrees apiece.

You have decided to stock fewer tomatoes and instead stock more squash. You decided to stock 30 tomatoes each day. About how man

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

2 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the plot of discrete probability, it can be seen that the distribution is symmetrical and the peak occurs at the stock of 30. If there is a sale of less than 30 such as 20 or 25, the seller is at a loss. Similarly, if the demand is above 30 such as 35 or 40, the seller is also at a loss. Therefore, there is approximately 2 sales to be lost each day based on the decision made by the seller.

The confidence interval would be
$0.80\pm0.03$ .

We use the formula
$p\pm z*\sigma_p$ , where

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{N}}$ , with p being the sample proportion and N being the sample size.

First we find the z-score associated with this level of confidence:
Convert 95% to a decimal: 95/100 = 0.95
Subtract from 1: 1-0.95 = 0.05
Divide by 2: 0.05/2 = 0.025
Subtract from 1: 1-0.025 = 0.975

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value is associated with a z-score of 1.96.

Since 578/720 said yes, this gives us p=0.80:
$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\frac{0.80(1-0.80)}{720}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.8(0.2)}{720}=0.015$

This gives us
$0.80\pm1.96(0.015)=0.80\pm 0.03$
