= 10^-4 ( 2 - 1 * 10^-1)
= 10^-4 ( 2 - 0.1)
= 10^-4 (1.9)

Complete Question
In a country in which people only want Girls, every family continues to have children until they have a Girl. If they have Girl, they stop. If they have boy, they will continuous have child. Assuming that the birthrate of Girl is 52%, what is the proportion of Girl in the country?
Answer:
0.52
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
52% is the birthrate of Girls
Therefore

0.52 is the proportion of Girls to boys in that country
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
Answer:
Height of the silo = 18 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached BC is the length of the silo and the height of the farmer is 5 ft.
Farmer is standing at 8 ft distance from the silo.
From triangle AEC,
tan(∠CAE) = 
= 
m(∠CAE) = 
= 32°
m∠BAE = 90° - 32° = 58°
From the triangle ABE,
tan58° = 
BE = 8tan58°
BE = 12.8 ft
Total height of the silo = BE + EC
= 12.8 + 5
= 17.8
≈ 18 ft
Therefore, total height of the silo is 18 ft.
