1st drop- 10ft comes back up 5ft
2nd drop-5ft comes back up 2.5ft
3rd drop-2.5ft comes back up 1.25 ft
4th drop-1.25ft comes back up .625ft

(10+5) + (5+2.5) + (2.5+1.25) + (1.25) = 27.5ft

stepladder [879]

Answer:

a) The probability of sampling at random a fish that is smaller in size than the value you would obtain by subtracting half the standard deviation from the average is 0.3085.

b) The probability of sampling at random a fish that is greater in size than the value you would obtain by adding half the standard deviation from the average is 0.3085.

c) The probability of sampling at random a fish that has a size between the two values is 0.383.

d) The 25th and 75 percentiles of fish size for the population using the normal distribution table is 5.69 and 5.87 respectively.

e) The probability that the average calculated will be less than the value is 0.3707.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given data set mean (\mu) = 5.75913

Standard deviation (\sigma) = 0.172229

Variance (\sigma2) = 0.0296

Here we get is

a)

P(x < \mu - \sigma/2) = p(x < 5.673) \\\\          = 0.3085

b)

P(x < \mu + \sigma/2) = p(x < 5.845) \\\\= 0.3085

c)

P(\mu - \sigma/2 < x < \mu + \sigma/2) = p(5.673 < x < 5.845) \\\\= 0.383

d)

25th percentile:-

= 25*[(n+1)/100]th term \\\\= 5.69

75the percentile:-

= 75*[(n+1)/100]th term\\\\ = 5.87

e)  

p(x < \mu - \sigma/3) = p(x < 5.7017) \\\\= 0.3707

A pole that is 3.2m tall casts a shadow that is 1.29m long. At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 39.25m long.
pashok25 [27]

Set up a ratio of height over shadow length:

3.2/1.29 = X/39.25

Cross multiply:

1.29x = 3.2 * 39.25

Simplify:

1.29x = 125.6

Divide both sides by 1.29:

x = 97.364 meters

Round to the nearest meter = 97 meters
