Answer:

The length of the shadow of the second pole is 16.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportional ratio (since the two poles stand side by side).

\frac{height}{shadow} =\frac{height}{shadow}

\frac{4}{11} =\frac{6}{x}

Cross multiply and solve for x (the shadow of the second pole):

4 · x = 11 · 6

4x = 66

x = 66 ÷ 4

x = 16.5 m

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

(0.55525, 1.24475)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that to save money, a local charity organization wants to target its mailing requests for donations to individuals who are most supportive of its cause.

                     Men    women

Sample size      5        5

Mean rate        6.2     5.3

Mean diffference = 6.2-5.3=0.9

Std error for difference = 0.25 (given)

Since we have two groups and also sample sizes are very small we can use t significant value for finding out confidence interval

df = 5+5-2 =8

t critical value for 80% two tailed = 1.397

Conf interval 80%

=(0.9-1.397*0.25, 0.9+1.397*0.25)\\= (0.55525, 1.24475)
