Weight of man and paint = 160 + 5 = 165 total pounds.
Gravitational force is independent of the path taken so we can ignore the radius of the silo.
Work done = total weight x height
The problem says he climbs to the top so overall height is 90 feet
Work = 165 lbs x 90 ft = 14,850 ft-lbs

3 is the complete oposite of -1/3 in terms of slopes, therefore they are perpendicular to each other.
Answer:
The best choice would be hiring a random employee from company A
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Supposing that the performance rating of employees follow approximately a normal distribution on both companies</em>, we are interested in finding what percentage of employees of each company have a performance rating greater than 5.5 (which is the mean of the scale), when we measure them in terms of z-scores.
In order to do that we standardize the scores of both companies with respect to the mean 5.5 of ratings
The z-value corresponding to company A is

where
= mean of company A
= 5.5 (average of rating between 1 and 10)
s = standard deviation of company A

We do the same for company C

This means that 27.49% of employees of company C have a performance rating > 5.5, whereas 71.42% of employees of company B have a performance rating > 5.5.
So, the best choice would be hiring a random employee from company A
