Answer:

28.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportion in calculating this.

Let X= height of the shadow of 24- ft tree.

The proportion can be set up as

(15- ft tree) /( 18- ft shadow )=(24- ft tree) / X

15/18 = 24/X

Making X subject of the formula

15X = 18 × 24

X= (18×24)/15

X=28.8 ft

Hence, the shadow of the 24- ft tree is 28.8 feet

Ksenya-84 [330]

Both the sample can be used to make inferences about the population.

The correct option is D.

Given

Jason and Yolanda both drew a simple random sample from a non-normally distributed population of 25,000.

Jason’s sample consisted of 0.24% of the population, while Yolanda’s sample consisted of 0.32% of the population.

<h3>Percentage;</h3>

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100.

According to the question

Total number of population = 25000

Percent of a sample of Jason = 0.24%

Percent of the sample of Yolanda's = 0.32%

So, the number of the population according to Jason's sample is given by;

=\dfrac{0.24}{100}\times 25000\\\\=0.24 \times 250\\\\=60

The number of the population according to Yolanda's sample is given by;

=\dfrac{0.32}{100}\times 25000\\\\=0.32 \times 250\\\\=80

Hence, Both the sample can be used to make inferences about the population

A museum has 450 visitors each day. If they are open 5 hours, how many people do they see per hour?
il63 [147K]

Answer: 90 visitors per hour

Explanation: "Per hour" means in 1 hour, so we can rewrite the given statement using fractions as <em>450 visitors/5 hours = __visitors/1 hour</em>.

To find out what goes in the bank, notice that we

have a 1 in the denominator of our second fraction.

So we want to find a fraction that is equivalent

to 450/5 that has a 1 in the denominator.

If we divide the numerator and denominator of 450/5 by 5,

we get the equivalent fraction 90/1 or <em>90 visitors/1 hour</em>.

So now we have <em>90 visitors/1 hour = __visitors/1 hour</em>.

So a 90 must go in the blank.

This means that the museum sees 90 visitors per hour.
