Answer:

The answer to your question is 55 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Person's height = 5 ft

Person's shadow = 10 ft

Tree's height = ?

Tree's shadow = 110 ft

- Use the Thales' theorem to solve this problem

Person's height / Person's shadow = Tree's height / Tree's shadow

- Substitution

5 / 10 = x / 110

-Solve for x

x = 5 (110) / 10

-Simplification

x = 550 / 10

-Result

x = 55 ft

-Conclusion

The tree is 55 ft height

Stels [109]

Answer:

a) 0.1535

b) 0.4866

c) 0.8111

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the next call come within the next t minutes is:

$p(t) = 1 -e ^{- t/3}$

According to this model,

a) the probability that a call in comes within 1/2 minutes is $p(t) = 1 -e ^{- (1/2)/3}$ =0.1535

b) the probability that a call in comes within 2 minutes is $p(t) = 1 -e ^{-2/3}$ =0.4866

c) the probability that a call in comes within 5 minutes is $p(t) = 1 -e ^{-5/3}$ =0.8111
