The tangent of the angle gives the ratio of the height of the lighthouse to the boat's distance
.. tan(angle of depression) = (lighthouse height)/(boat distance)
Then the distance to the boat is
.. boat distance = (lighthouse height)/tan(angle of depression)

We want to find the difference between two distances, so
.. boat travel = (lighthouse height)*(1/tan(first angle) -1/(tan(second angle))
.. = (200 ft)*(1/tan(17°31') -1/tan(46°41'))
.. ≈ 445.10 ft

The histogram shows the duration, in minutes, of movies in theaters.

neonofarm [45]

The correct answer is:

The median is less than the mean.

Explanation:

This histogram is skewed right; the data "peaks" further to the left than the center.

If a histogram is skewed right, the mean is greater than the median.

This is because skewed-right data have a few large values that increase the mean but do not affect where the exact middle of the data is.

The brand manager for a brand toothpaste must plan a campaign designed to increase brand recognition. He wants to first determin

bulgar [2K]

We need to find out how many adults must the brand manager survey in order to be 90% confident that his estimate is within five percentage points of the true population percentage.

From the given data we know that our confidence level is 90%. From Standard Normal Table we know that the critical level at 90% confidence level is 1.645. In other words, $Z_{Critical}=1.645$ .

We also know that E=5% or E=0.05

Also, since, $\hat{p}$ is not given, we will assume that $\hat{p}$ =0.5. This is because, the formula that we use will have $\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})$ in the expression and that will be maximum only when $\hat{p}$ =0.5. (For any other value of $\hat{p}$ , we will get a value less than 0.25. For example if, $\hat{p}$ is 0.4, then $1-\hat{p}=0.6$ and thus, $\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})=0.24$ .).
