Answer:

48ft

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <u>Distance of car A from the tower</u>
  • Consider ∆ACD tan25 = 50/AC AC  = 50/tan25 = 50/0.4663 = 107.2 ft
  • <u>Distance of car B from the tower</u>
  • Consider ∆BCD tan40 = 50/BC AC  = 50/tan40 = 50/0.8391 = 59.6 ft

  • <u>Distance from cars A and B</u> AB = AC – BC = 107.2 – 59.6 = 48 ft The distance between the two cars is 48ft

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The lower bound of the interval is 88.9mm and the upper bound is 93.1mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.85}{2} = 0.075

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.075 = 0.925, so z = 1.44

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.44*\frac{8}{\sqrt{30}} = 2.1

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 91 - 2.1 = 88.9mm.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 91 + 2.1 = 93.1 mm

The lower bound of the interval is 88.9mm and the upper bound is 93.1mm.
