Answer:
0.7233
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the area between the z-scores z=-0.95 and z=1.25.
We first find the area to the left of each z-score, and subtract the smaller area from the bigger one.
For the area to the left of z=-0.95, we read -0.9 under 5 from the standard normal distribution table.
This gives P(z<-0.95)=0.1711
Similarly the area to the left of z=1.25 is
P(z<1.25)=0.8944
Now the area between the two z-scores is
P(-0.25<z<1.25)=0.8944-0.1711=0.7233
We can use Pythagorean's Theorem in order to find the remaining side length
a^2+b^2=c^2
Let a be the shadow length
Let b be the height of the flagpole
Let c be the hypotenuse
28^2+b^2=35^2
784+b^2=1225
b^2=1225-784
b^2=441
b=√441
b=21
Therefore the flagpole is 21 meters tall.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
21 / 143
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of Eastern conference reps = 8
Number of western conference rep = 7
Probability of selecting 3 from Eastern reps and 2 from western reps
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes:
selection to be made = 3+ 2 = 5
Total Number of players = 8 +7 = 15
Total possible outcomes
Using combination formula :
nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!
15C5 = 15! / 10!5! = (15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11) / (5*4'3*2*1) = 360360 / 120 = 3003
Total possible outcomes = 3003
Required outcome :
8C3 * 7C2
8C3 = 56 ; 7C2 = 21
8C3 * 7C2 = 56 * 21 = 1176
required outcome / Total possible outcomes
= 1176 / 3003
= 21 / 143
