Answer:  22 meters

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Draw a picture of a right triangle and label the height as 30 meters and the hypotenuse as 37 meters.  Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the base (the length of the shadow).

a² + b² = c²

x² + 30² = 37²

x²          = 37² - 30²

x²          = 1369 - 900

x²          = 469

√x²       = √469

        x = 21.656

        x ≈ 22

A non-response bias is when subjects are selected to participate in a survey but some choose not to respond. This would lead to a portion of the population being misrepresented leading to inaccurate results. For example, those who returned the survey might be more likely to do something than those who did not complete the survey.
