Answer:

12ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a 4ft pole casts a 6ft long shadow that means for every 2ft of height the shadow is 3ft. Now the shadow is 18ft long so you do 18 / 3 = 6. To find the walls height you do 6 * 2 = 24.

Answer:

12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

 6 ft        4 ft

-------- = --------

 18 ft        w

Cross multiplying, we get:  6w = 72 ft^2, so w = 12 ft

Observations can you make from a comparison of the number of water supply stoppages reported by owner-occupied units versus renter-occupied units 1.

Total no. of times owner-occupied units had a water supply stoppage lasting 6 or more hours

547000 + 5012000 + 6110000 + 2544000 + 557000 = 14770000

x = no. of times owner-occupied units had a water supply stoppage.

<h3>What is the probability at x =0?</h3>

P(x=0) = 547000/14770000

P(x=0) = 0.0370

Similarly, we have at x=1

P(x=1) = 5012000/14770000

P(x=1) = 0.3393

P(x=2) = 6110000/14770000

P(x=2) = 0.4137

P(x=3) = 2544000/14770000

P(x=3) = 0.1722

P(x=4) = 557000/14770000

P(x=4) = 0.0378

x           f(x)

0             0.0370

1              0.3393

2         0.4137

3              0.1722

4         0.0378

Total     1
