The horizontal distance between two towers is 80 m. The angle of depression of the top of the first tower when seen from the top

of the second tower is 30o. If the height of the second tower is 160 m, find the height of the first tower.

Let the height of the first tower be x, then the second tower is (160 - x) m taller than the first tower. Then
tan 30 = (160 - x)/80
160 - x = 80 tan 30
x = 160 - 80 tan 30 = 160 - 46.19 = 113.8 m

Therefore, the height of the first tower is 113.8 m.

Ignacio is curious about the average age of cars in the commuter lot at Mis large university. He takes a random
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Between 12.614 years and 16.386 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean age (μ) = 14.5 years, standard deviation (σ) = 4.6 years, number o sample (n) and the confidence interval (c) = 90% = 0,9

α = 1 -c = 1 -0.9 = 0.1

\frac{\alpha }{2}  = \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.05

The z score of \alpha /2 is the same as the z score of 0.45 (0.5 - 0.05). This can be gotten from the probability distribution table. Therefore:

z_{0.05}=1.64

The margin of error (e) = z_{0.05}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } = 1.64*\frac{4.6}{\sqrt{16} }=1.886

The interval = μ ± e = 14.5 ± 1.886 = (12.614 ,16.386)

8 is the difference of d and 3.75
maria [59]

Answer:

11.75

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question above 8 is the difference of d and 3.75

We are required to find the value of d

d-3.75= 8

d= 8 + 3.75

d= 11.75

Hence the value of d is 11.75
