The reasons that the sample is representative:
The builders were chosen at random
The population included only builders who build in Vicki's town
Vickie wanted to determine the cost of building a house in her home, so the fact that the builders were from her town makes the sample more representative. Moreover, the random choosing of the builders helps to remove any biases that may be present.
2:3 is equivalent to 0.666 repeating

Answer: the length of string that been let out to fly the kite this high is 172.89 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of string attached to the kite, the vertical height of the kite above the ground and the ground distance forms a right angle triangle.
With an angle of 57 degrees, the length of the string that is attached to the kite represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
The height of the kite above the ground represents the opposite side of the triangle
To determine h, the length of the string that has been let out to fly the kite this high, we would apply the
Sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as
Sine θ = opposite side/hypotenuse
Sin 57 = 145/h
h = 145/Sin57 = 145/0.8387
h = 172.89
