A large flagpole stands outside of an office building. Marquis realizes that when he looks up from the ground 60m away from the

flagpole, the top of the flagpole and the top of the building line up. If the flagpole is 35m tall and Marquis is 170m from the building, how tall is the building?

Answer:

99.2m

Step-by-step explanation:

PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE IMAGE ATTACHED

Let's solve for triangle CDE and get the angle D

And since we have the opposite and the adjacent of that particular angle,we make use of the tangent in SOH CAH TOA

TAN X = opp/adj

Tan x = 35/60

X = tan inverse of 35/60

X = 30.26°

We are now going to make use of this angle to find the height of the building

Tan 30.26 = opp/adj

Remember that the boy is 170m away from the building which is our adjacent here.

Tan 30.26 = y/170

Y = 170 × tan 30.26

Y = 99.2m

Therefore, the height of the building is 99.2m

Answer:

99.17m

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram, Marquis is at Point A and the flag pole is length DE, the building is of length BC.

Triangles ADE and ABC are therefore similar right triangles.

Applying this,

\frac{|DE|}{|AE|}=\frac{|BC|}{|AC|}

\frac{35}{60}=\frac{|BC|}{170}

|BC|=170*35÷60

|BC|=99.17m

Why might the mean of a probability distribution for a discrete random variable be less than (or greater than) the average of po
user100 [1]

The Normal probability distribution function is left-skewed, right-skewed, or symmetric depending on the values of the variance and the standard deviation might the mean of a probability distribution for a discrete random variable be less than (or greater than) the average of possible values.

A probability distribution is a mathematical function that describes the probabilities of different possible values ​​of a variable. Probability distributions are often represented using graphs or probability tables.

Probability distributions are called discrete probability distributions, and the set of outcomes is inherently discrete. For example, if you roll a die, all possible outcomes are discrete and you get a large number of outcomes. Also called probability mass function.

Students went on a picnic. They recorded a list of the number of animals
lorasvet [3.4K]

Observation that we can make is min = 10, max = 19, range = 9, Maximum frequency of a number is 12, Average = 12.9, median = 12, mode = 12 it is slightly skewed on the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • It is imperative to create a data in a tabular column before analyzing.
  • Once the data is created use tally marks or frequency distribution.
  • Frequency distribution helps the data to provide occurrence of event.
  • Very important to number which is a counting numbers are discrete.
  • Continuous of data are ones which are in decimal.
  • Descriptive statistics is the 1st level of Statistics.
  • It finds, where the data stands. Minimum, Maximum is understandable.
  • Range is at what level data is expanded.
  • Average is the one numeric of a number.
  • Median is the mid point of data
  • Mode is the repetitive number of the data.
  • Skewness is whether data is having extreme directions.
