Answer:

8\sqrt{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagorean theorem (Assuming the house's walls are perpindicular to the ground):

a^2+b^2=c^2

we can find that 3=a and 29=c

3^2+b^2=29^2

9+b^2=841

b^2=832

b=\sqrt{832}

b=\sqrt{64*13}

b=8\sqrt{13}

That is the height that the ladder will reach

Find the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when the standard deviation is LaTeX: \sigma= 50????=50 and LaTeX: n = 25
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The margin of error  for a 90% confidence interval is 16.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 25

Standard deviation = 50

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = \pm 1.64

Margin of error =

z_{critical}\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

1.64\times \dfrac{50}{\sqrt{25}} = 16.4

Thus, the margin of error  for a 90% confidence interval is 16.4

Determine the first four terms of the sequence in which the nth term is...
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the sequence is (n+3)!/ (n+4)!

The first terms uses n=1

a1 = (1+3)!/ (1+4)! = 4!/5! = (4*3*2*1)/(5*4*3*2*1) = 1/5


The first terms uses n=2

a2 = (2+3)!/ (2+4)! = 5!/6! = (5*4*3*2*1)/(6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/6


The first terms uses n=3

a3 = (3+3)!/ (3+4)! = 6!/7! = (6*5*4*3*2*1)/(7*6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/7


The first terms uses n=4

a4 = (4+3)!/ (4+4)! = 7!/8! = (7*6*5*4*3*2*1)/(8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/8
