Answer:
about 106 km
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the two towns can be estimated several ways. In the attachment, we chose to measure the angles on the map. Using the law of sines, we can estimate the unknown distance.
The distance can also be estimated using the Tounouse-Avaria distance as a ruler. For best results, that ruler would need to be subdivided to an appropriate level.

<h3>angle measures</h3>The angles in the triangle can be measured using a protractor or some other tool. The attachment shows the results from a geometry program:
- ∠TMA ≈ 107°
- ∠TAM ≈ 24°
The law of sines tells us the distances are proportional to the sines of the opposite angles:
TM/sin(TAM) = TA/sin(TMA)
TM = sin(24°)×(250 km)/sin(107°) ≈ 106.3 km
The distance from Tounouse to Mt. Monotti is estimated to be about 106 km.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
Using a compass or dividers to project the TM distance onto TA, we find it is between 0.4 and 0.5 of the TA distance. The difference between 2×TM and TA can be estimated to be about 0.4×TM. That is, ...
TM ≈ TA/2.4 ≈ (250 km)/2.4 ≈ 104.2 km
This estimate is consistent with the one found using angle measures.
Answer:
0% probability of getting a mean temperature of 98.2 degrees F or lower.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
Find the probability of getting a mean temperature of 98.2 degrees F or lower.
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 98.2. So
has a pvalue of 0.
So there is a 0% probability of getting a mean temperature of 98.2 degrees F or lower.
