Answer:
First we need to name some of the variables we are given:n = 38 the sample sizex = 6.88 the sample mean = 1.86 the population standard deviationWe need to find a 90% confidence interval for the mean price per 100 lbs of watermelon: = 1-.90 = .10/2 = .05z(/2) = -1.64-z(/2) = 1.64This can give us a probability expression:P(-1.645 < z < 1.645) = .90The margin of error is calculated with the formula: E = z(/2)(/√n)E = 1.645(1.86/√38) = $.4963(300) = $148.89 Then to calculate the upper and lower limit we add and subtract E from x:lower limit = 6.88 - .4963 = $7.38(300) = $2214upper limit = 6.88 + .4963 = $6.38(300) = $1914Note: We multiply the E, upper and lower limits by 300 because 15 tons is 30000lbs and we need the price per 100 lbs, so we divide 30000/100 and get 300.

Answer:
448
Step-by-step explanation:
55 Divided by 880 is 448
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height = h
Let the base = 4h + 7
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h
Area = 93 square inches
1/2 * (4h + 7)* h = 93 Multiply both sides by 2
(4h + 7) * h = 93*2
(4h + 7)*h = 186 Remove the brackets
4h^2 + 7h = 186 Subtract 186 from both sides.
4h^2 + 7h - 186 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve
a = 4
b = 7
c = - 186
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(7^2 - 4*4*(-186) ) /2*4
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 - 16*(-186)) / 8
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 + 2976)) / 8
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(3025)) / 8
x1 = (-7 +55 ) / 8
x1 = (48)/8
x1 = 6
There is another root, but it has to be minus and therefore cannot be used as a length. x2 = - 7.75
h = 6
b = 4*6 + 7 = 31
Check
Area = 1/2 * b * h
Area = 1/2 * 31 * 6
Area = 1/2 *186
Area = 93 which is what we were given so the answer is correct.
The given triangle is a right triangle.
The tangent of an angle of right triangle is obtained by dividing the opposite side of the angle with the adjacent side of the angle.
The opposite side of angle R is 5 cm and the adjacent side of angle R is 12 cm.
tan R = 5 / 12 = 0.4167
R = arctan (0.4167) = 22.6 degrees.
