Answer:

x = 225.16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The angle between the piling and the pier is 60°.

A surveyor has set up his transit on one side of the lake 130 feet from a piling that is directly across from a pier on the other side of the lake.

We need to find the distance between the piling and the pier. Let the distance be d. Using the trigonometry to find it as follows :

\tan(60)=\dfrac{x}{130}\\\\x=\tan(60)\times 130\\\\x=225.16\ feet

So, the required distance is 225.16 feet.

According to the United States Health and Human Services, the mean height for Americans is 1.757 meters for men and 1.618 meters
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Her z-score is 2.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Michelle’s height is 1.758 meters. What is her z-score?

Michelle's is a woman.

The average height of women is \mu = 1.618 and the standard deviation is \sigma = 0.069

This is Z when X = 1.758. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1.758 - 1.618}{0.069}

Z = 2.03

Her z-score is 2.03.
