Answer:
- 30.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Refer to attached</em>
- Height of plants (h) >> Frequency >> Midpoint >> Frequency x midpoint
- 0 <h < 10 >> 1 >> 5 >> 5
- 10 <h < 20 >> 4 >> 15 >> 60
- 20 <h < 30 >> 7 >> 25 >> 175
- 30 <h < 40 >> 2 >> 35 >> 70
- 40 <h < 50 >> 3 >> 45 >> 135
- 50 <h < 60 >> 3 >> 55 >> 165
Sum of frequencies = 20
Sum of frequency x midpoint product = 610
<u>Mean height </u>
- 610/20 = 30.5 cm
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
The bird is approximately 9 ft high up in the tree
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The required diagram is shown in the attached image
Note that the tree, the cat and the ground form a right-angled triangle
<u>Therefore, we can apply special trigonometric functions</u>
<u>These functions are as follows:</u>
<u>Now, taking a look at our diagram, we can note the following:</u>
α = 25°
The opposite side is the required height (x)
The adjacent side is the distance between the cat and the tree = 20 ft
Therefore, we can use the <u>tan function</u>
<u>This is done as follows:</u>
which is 9 ft approximated to the nearest ft
Hope this helps :)
