Answer: 87 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between the pilling is 60°

The adjacent side of the right angle is 150

So let the distance between the pilling be y, that is opposite side.

Opposite / adjacent = tan (60°)

y / 150 = tan (60)

y × tan (60°) = 150

Divide both side by tan (60°)

y = 150 / tan (60°)

y = 150 / 1.7321

y = 87 feet

The t value for a 99% confidence interval estimation based upon a sample of size 10 is
Aliun [14]
Answer:
For a sample size of 10, the t-value is about 3.25 (from tables) at a 99% confidence interval.

Explanation:
When the standard deviation for the population is not known, the confidence interval estimate for the population mean is performed with the Student's t-distribution.
The confidence interval for the mean is calculated as
(\Bar{x}- t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} , \, \Bar{x}+ t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}
where
 \Bar{x} = sample mean,
s = sample standard deviation,
t = t-value (provided in tables),
n =  sample size.

When reading the t-value, (n-1) is called the df or degrees of freedom.
