Answer:

2,789ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will give a right angled triangle.

The altitude will be the opposite side = 1600 ft

The angle of depression = 35°

approximate direct distance to the stadium is the hypotenuse of the trisngle= x

Using the SOH trig identity to get the distance

sin 35 = opp/hyp

sin 35 = 1600/x

x = 1600/sin35

x = 1600/0.5736

x = 2,789.4ft

Hence mai’s approximate direct distance to the stadium is 2,789ft

A student wants to study the ages of women who apply for marriage licenses in his county. He selects a random sample of 94 marri
brilliants [131]

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

For this case the confidence interval obtained is: (23.6 ; 27.3)

And the best interpretation would be:

We have 95% of confidence that the true mean os ages of women who apply for marriage licenses in his county is between 23.6 and 27.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n=94 represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

For this case the confidence interval obtained is: (23.6 ; 27.3)

And the best interpretation would be:

We have 95% of confidence that the true mean os ages of women who apply for marriage licenses in his county is between 23.6 and 27.3

Solve for r.<br> Give an exact answer.<br> 1/2r-3=2(4-3/2r)
Marysya12 [62]

We can use the distribution method for this:

1/2r - 3 = 2(4 - 3/2r)

Multiply 2 by everything inside the parentheses:

1/2r - 3 = 8 - 3r.

Move variables to one side, and numbers to another:

1/2r + 3r = 8 + 3.

3 1/2r = 11.

7/2r = 11.

Divide by 7/2:

r = 22/7.

Not sure this is correct.
