Answer:

8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to look at the relationship between the elephant and its shadow. The elephant is 9 ft tall and the shadow is 3 ft long, making the elephant 3 times larger than the shadow. Using this information, we can assume that the tree is 3 times larger than its shadow. To find the answer, divide 24 by 3, giving you a final answer of 8 feet long.

24 / 3 = 8

alexdok [17]

A line has the following standard equation form:

y = m x + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

 

So if Ariel cannot find the slope, then this would only mean that m = 0, there is no slope. And hence the line is either a straight vertical line or straight horizontal line.

 

Answer:

<span>There is no slope</span>

matrenka [14]

To answer (a), we will need to find the Z value for 710 hours and 990 hours.

\begin{gathered} For\text{ 710} \\ Z\text{ = }\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\ \text{    = }\frac{710-850}{70} \\ \text{    = -2} \\ p\text{ =0.0228 } \\ For\text{ 990:} \\ Z\text{ = }\frac{990-850}{70} \\ \text{ =2} \\ p\text{ = 0.9772} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} To\text{ find P \lparen–2 \le Z \le 2\rparen} \\ =\text{ 0.9772 -0.0228} \\ =\text{ 0.9544} \\ =95.44\% \end{gathered}

B) 68% of data lies between one standard deviation of the mean.

850 +70 = 920

850 - 70 = 780
