Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is classic right triangle trig. The height of the hill is 78.4 which serves as the side opposite the reference angle of 23 degrees. The side we are looking for is the hypotenuse of that triangle. The trig ratio that relates the side opposite a reference angle to the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the sin ratio. Setting it up using our values:
, where x is the unknown length of the hypotenuse. Solving for x:
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode before entering this in. You will get a length of the hypotenuse as 200.649 feet, so choice A.
Answer:
a: 0.9544 9 within 8 units)
b: 0.9940
Step-by-step explanation:
We have µ = 300 and σ = 40. The sample size, n = 100.
For the sample to be within 8 units of the population mean, we would have sample values of 292 and 308, so we want to find:
P(292 < x < 308).
We need to find the z-scores that correspond to these values using the given data. See attached photo 1 for the calculation of these scores.
We have P(292 < x < 308) = 0.9544
Next we want the probability of the sample mean to be within 11 units of the population mean, so we want the values from 289 to 311. We want to find
P(289 < x < 311)
We need to find the z-scores that correspond to these values. See photo 2 for the calculation of these scores.
We have P(289 < x < 311) = 0.9940
