The problem is modelled as right angle triangle, shown in the diagram below

The distance between the pilot and the house is labelled as x

Using the trigonometry ratio of sine
sin(31)= \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
sin(31)= \frac{2010}{x}
x= \frac{2101}{sin(31)} = 4079.3 ft

.Here is a 90% confidence interval estimate of theproportion of adults who say that thelaw goes easy on celebrities: 0.645
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The best estimate of the proportion of adults who say that the law goes easy on celebrities is 0.7435.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

In this question:

CI is between 0.645 and 0.842. So the best estimate of the proportion is:

(0.645+0.842)/2 = 0.7435

The best estimate of the proportion of adults who say that the law goes easy on celebrities is 0.7435.

Suppose you have 34 bread slices and 24 cheese slices. how many cheese sandwiches can you make
Brums [2.3K]
17 if you maintain the ratio of 2:1 for bread and cheese, but you would get a remainder of 7 cheese  slices. You could, however, cut up the extra pieces of cheese and add ~0.41 slices of cheese to each sandwich, which would melt into the rest of the cheese if you are grilling the sandwich. Otherwise, it's just an extra chunck, which is perfectly fine.
