A vertical radio tower is 645 feet high above level ground. How far would you need to be from the base of the tower so that the

angle of elevation to the top of the tower would be 35.0°? (The “angle of elevation” is the angle measured from level ground up to the top of the tower.)

Answer:

921.165 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok we are looking for the length of the base.

Now let's take the question and picture it as a triangle, we will find out that it looks like a right angle triangle.

The height= 645 feet

Angle of elevation= 35°

Base is unknown

To find the base

We recall that tan of angle

= opposite/adjacent

In this case

Angle= 35°

Opposite= height= 645

Adjacent= base

Tan 35 = 645/adj

Adj =645/tan 35

Adj =645/0.7002

Adj = 921.165

The base is 921.165 feet

The sample which is likely to produce the most valid result is Richard's sample because there was no statistical bias. Statistical bias is the systematic favoritism of certain individuals in the study. Just like what Adriana, Henry and Malik did in conducting their surveys, they choose people who are point of interest and also who are near them. In the way Richard conducted his survey, he used a random sampling technique, this is a method of selecting a sample from a population in such a way that every possible individual can be chosen and he doesn't know who these people are.

DanielleElmas [232]
ANSWER: 0.361

This is as:

0.361 > 0.332

0.361 > 0.343

0.361 > 0.36

Therefore, as 0.361 is greater than all the other averages, it must be the highest average.

Hope this helps! :)

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

0.903264

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a TV set contains five circuit boards of type A, five of type B, and four of type C. The probability of failing in its first 5000 hours of use is 0.03 for a type A circuit board, 0.04 for a type B circuit board, and 0.03 for a type C circuit board.

Let A' = the event that A fails, B' =  B fails and C'= C fails.

Probability that no circuit board fails = Prob (A'B'C')

= P(A')P(B')P(C')  (since A,B, C are independent, their complements are independent

= (1-0.03)(1-0.04)(1-0.03)

= 0.903264
