Answer:

207.68 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram,

ΔDEC is similar to ΔFGC

Therefore,

(DE)/(FG) = (DC)/(FC).............. Equation 1

make line DE the subject of the equation

DE = [(DC)(FG)/(FC)]................ Equation 2

From the diagram,

Given: DC = 190 m, FG = 142.1 m, FC = 130 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

DE = (190×142.1/130)

DE = 207.68 m

Hence the distance across the lake is 207.68 m

It would be the answer with Juana. Additive integers are adding a postive and negative number to add to zero ex) -5+5=0. So in this situation you can think of west and east as positive and negative.

Using the t-distribution to build the 99% confidence interval, it is found that:

  • The margin of error is of 3.64.
  • The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

<h3>What is a t-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • t is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • s is the standard deviation for the sample.

The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed 95% confidence interval, with 21 - 1 = 20 df, is t = 2.086.

The other parameters are given as follows:

\overline{x} = 23, s = 8, n = 21

The margin of error is given by:

M = t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.086\frac{8}{\sqrt{21}} = 3.64

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

\overline{x} - M = 23 - 3.64 = 19.36

\overline{x} + M = 23 + 3.64 = 26.64

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

a teacher plans a simulation to estimate the probability that a student will pick a vowel out of a bag of 26 tiles, each with a
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a teacher prepares 26 tiles with 5 vowels numbered 1 and 21 consonants numbered 2.

The probability for drawing vowel =\frac{5}{26}

Prob for consonant =\frac{21}{26}

If number of trials is atleast 30 we can expect reliable results.

Here the results are recorded for 120 times at random.

Since number of trials is large, we can expect a reliable and accurate results representing the actual probability.

This is because more the number of trials, the less would be the margin of error i.edeviationfrom the expected probability would be minimum
