Answer:
$28.5
Step-by-step explanation:
14-6.5=7.5
7.5x$3.8=28.5
If we are to connect both tips of the cliff to the approaching ship, we form a right triangle. The height of the cliff is the opposite side of the angle of depression. The trigonometric function that would allow us to solve for the distance is tangent.
tan 18.2° = opposite /adjacent = 426 ft/ x ft
The value of x from the equation is 1295.68 ft
Thus, the answer is the second choice.
68% will be 1 standrd deviation either side of the mean so a reasonable estimate will be (25*0.68) / 2 = 8.5
C because you factor it out
