40 feet = 8 foot shadow

So in order to go from 40 to 8 you divide by 5.
 So if you have a person who casts a 2 foot shadow, you have to multiply by 5.

Your answer would be 10 feet.
Hope I helped :)

Write the ratio: <br> 450<br> to <br> 200<br> as a fraction in lowest terms.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The ratio 450 : 200 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 50 :

450 : 200 = 9 : 4

Therefore:

450 : 200 = 9 : 4

basically 9/4

We are continuing to study the difference in average time for completion for the two matching schemes. However, this time we had
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

We are 95% confident that the time to completion for the same color method is between 4.617 <u>less</u> to 9.383 <u>less</u> than the different color method.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population parameter implies that there is a (1 - α) probability that the true value of the parameter is included in the interval.

Or, the (1 - α)% confidence interval for the parameter implies that there is (1 - α)% confidence or certainty that the true parameter value is contained in the interval.

The 95% confidence for the difference in the completion time of treatment is<em> and </em>d<em> is,</em>

<em>CI</em><em> = </em>(-4.617, -9.383)

The parameter of the study is defined as:

treatment_<em>s - </em>treatment_<em>d </em>

Consider the 95% confidence interval, (-4.617, -9.383). The confidence interval consists of all negative values.

This implies that the difference between the completion time of treatment <em>s</em> and <em>d</em> is less than 0, i.e. the completion time of treatment <em>s</em> is less than that for treatment <em>d</em>.

Thus, the complete statement is:

"We are 95% confident that the time to completion for the same color method is between 4.617 <u>less</u> to 9.383 <u>less</u> than the different color method."
