Answer:
h = 41.25 foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Height of a street light = 7.5 feet
It casts a 3-foot-long shadow.
A nearby flagpole casts a 16.5 foot long shadow. We need to find the height of the flag pole. Let the height be h. It can be calculated as :
So, the height of the flag pole is equal to 41.25 foot.
The mean you found is correct, but the standard deviation is not. Recall that the standard deviation (
for sample) of
points is given by
where is the sample size,
is the sample mean, and
are the prices listed in the circled column. So
I can't tell if you need to provide any more info beyond this, but given there's a plot of a generalized bell curve, I think you're also supposed to label the plot.
At the center of the bell-shaped/normal distribution is the mean. Notice there are three tick marks to either side of the mean - these are probably supposed to represent prices that fall exactly 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations from the mean. These are, from left to right,
