Answer:

184.38\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a right triangle the tangent function of an angle \theta is equal to divide the opposite side to the angle \theta by the adjacent side to the angle \theta

In this problem we have

\theta=2\°

adjacent\ side=5,280\ ft

Let

h-----> the opposite side to the angle \theta (represent the height)

so

tan(2\°)=h/5,280

h=5,280*tan(2\°)=184.38\ ft

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if two events are independent you can use the formula P(a|b) = P(a)

In this problem P(C|Y) = 35/75 = .4667 and P(C) = 110/300 = 3.667,

therefore C and Y are not independent events because P(C∣Y) ≠ P(C).

The answer is choice D
