50 ft. -15 ft. = 35 ft.  tall for the antenna Sounds like a trick question don't count the anchor point

I do not believe the previous answer is correct. This is an a^2+b^2=c^2 problem. The 50 foot cable is the hypotnuse (c) and 15 foot gap is one of the sides (a). So take 15 and square it. Then square 50. You then should have 15^2+b^2=50^2. Subtract 15^2 to the right side, then square root the answer to get b, the height of the antenna.

The number of square feet per house are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 137 square feet and an unkn
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that X, the number of square feet per house is N(mean, 137)

Sample size = 19

Sample mean x bar =1350 sq ft

Since population std dev is given,

std error of sample = \frac{137}{\sqrt{19} } \\=31.43

Since sample size is small, t critical value can be used

df = 18

t value for 80% two tailed = 1.333

Margin of error = ±1.333(std error) = ±1.333*31.43\\=41.896

Confidence interval = sample mean ±margin of error

= 1350-41.896,1350+41.896\\=(1308.104,1391.896)

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be th
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(Blue eyes) = 31%

P(Deaf) = 38%

P(Deaf | Blue eyes) = 42%

Formula for conditional probability:

P( A|B) = \displaystyle\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}

Now, let A be the event where the dog is deaf and B be the the event where dog is blue eyed.

P( \text{ Deaf}|\text{Blue eyes}) = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{P(\text{Blue eyes})}\\\\0.42 = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{0.31}\\\\P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes}) = 0.42\times 0.31 = 0.1302 = 13.02\%

Hence, the probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.
