Answer:

110sin(72°) feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the right triangle with the 110 ft ladder as the hypotenuse, the side opposite the 72° angle represents the maximum height the ladder will reach. The definition of the sine function tells you ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

so the Opposite side will be ...

ladder height = (110 ft)sin(72°)

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) Sample correlation coefficient, r = 0.7411

bi) test statistic, t = 4.102

bii) P-value = 0.000736

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The formula for the sample correlation coefficient is given by the formula:

$r = \frac{S_{xy} }{\sqrt{S_{xx} S_{yy} }} }$

$S_{xx} = 2,648,130.357\\S_{yy} = 36.7376,\\S_{xy} = 7408.225$

$r = \frac{7408.225}{\sqrt{2648130.357*36.7376} }$

r = 0.7511

i) formula for the test statistic is given by the formula:

$t = \frac{r\sqrt{n-1} }{\sqrt{1 - r^{2} } }$

sample size, n = 4

$t = \frac{0.7511\sqrt{14-1} }{\sqrt{1 - 0.7511^{2} } }$

t = 4.102

ii) Degree of freedom, df = n -2

df = 14 -2

df = 12

The P-value is calculate from the degree of freedom and the test statistic using excel

P-value =(=TDIST(t,df,tail))

P-value = (=TDIST(4.1,12,1)

P-value = 0.000736

Oliga [24]

Answer:

53 1/3 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the eagle would take 1 1/3 of an hour to fly 40 miles, so you multiply 1 1/3 to 48 to get your answer.
