Answer:

  • see below for a diagram
  • 15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephanie is 1.8/1.2 = 1.5 times as tall as her shadow is long. We expect the same is true of the wind turbine.

The wind turbine's shadow is 10 m long, so its height is 1.5·(10 m) = 15 m.

The wind turbine is 15 m tall.

Answer:

y =  \frac{2}{3} x

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice how it passed through at exactly (3,2) and (6,4).

By taking the formula for slope:

m =  \frac{rise}{run}  =  \frac{y}{x}  \\  =  \frac{2}{3}

Substituting this into the slope-intercept form

y = mx + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Since we were not given the y-intercept and the line started or passes through (0,0), we can safely assume that b = 0.

Therefore,

y =  \frac{2}{3} x

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The 95% of confidence intervals

(2.84 ,2.99)

Step-by-step explanation:

A random sample of 20 accounting students results in a mean of 2.92 and a standard deviation of 0.16

given small sample size n =20

sample mean x⁻ =2.92

sample standard deviation 'S' =0.16

level of significance ∝ =  0.95

The 95% of confidence intervals

x^{-}  ± t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }

the degrees of freedom γ=n-1 =20-1=19

t-table 2.093

(x^{-}  - t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} },x^{-}  + t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} })

(2.92 - 2.093(\frac{0.16}{\sqrt{20} } ,2.92+2.093(\frac{0.16}{\sqrt{20} } )

(2.92-0.0748,2.92+0.0748)

(2.84 ,2.99)

Therefore the 95% of confidence intervals

(2.84 ,2.99)
