<h3>The height of lamp post to nearest inch is 110 inches</h3>

Solution:

We have to find the height of lamppost

From the figure in question,

Given is a right angled triangle

Where,

base = 40 inches

height = ?

By definition of tan,

$tan\ 70 = \frac{opposite}{base}\\\\tan\ 70 = \frac{height}{40}\\\\height = tan\ 70 \times 40\\\\height = 2.7474 \times 40\\\\height = 109.89 \approx 110$

Thus height of lamp post to nearest inch is 110 inches

Part 1: How's the weather? A. Investigate the weather forecast in your city. Record the high and low temperatures that are forec

victus00 [196]

Using the mean concept, it is found that:

1. The mean change in the forecasted high temperatures is of -0.33ºC.

2. The mean change in the forecasted low temperatures is of 0.5ºC.

-----------------------------

The mean of data-set is given by the sum of all observations divided by the number of observations.

Item 1:

The changes in the high temperature are: 2, 1, -1, -1, -1, -2

Thus:

$M = \frac{2 + 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 2}{6} = -0.33$

The mean change in the forecasted high temperatures is of -0.33ºC.

Item 2:

The changes in the low temperature are: 2, -2, 2, 1, 0, 0.

$M = \frac{2 - 2 + 2 + 1 + 0 + 0}{6} = 0.5$

The mean change in the forecasted low temperatures is of 0.5ºC.
