Answer:

A.) 2752.8 feet

B.) 5044.3 feet

C.) 6182.9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) Given that the camp to the base of the mountain is 2,000 feet. And the angle of elevation is 54 degrees

Using SohCahToa, to calculate the height

Tan 54 = height/2000

Height = 2000 tan54 = 2752.8 feet

B.) Given that the base of the mountain is 2600 feet wide.

Let use pythagorean theorem to find the slant length

Adjacent = 2600/2 = 1300 feet

Slant length = root ( 1300^2 + 2752.8^2)

Slant length = 3044.3 feet

The total distance that Jacob and his dad hiked from their campsite to the top of the mountain will be

3044.3 + 2000 = 5044.3 feet

C.) Given that the angle of depression is 24 degrees while the height is 2752.8 feet

Using pythagorean theorem again

Tan 24 = 2752.8/distance

Distance = 2752.8/tan24

Distance = 6182.9 feet

To find the area of the rectangular prism, use the formula:

A = width x height x length

A = 2 x 2 x 3

A = 12

Now multiply A with 0.75

12 x 0.75 = 9

x = 9 in³

Answer:

The calculated value Z= 4.8389> 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is significance difference between that the abrasive wear of material 1 not exceeds that of material 2 by more than 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step:-(1)

Given data the samples of material 1 gave an average (coded) wear of 85 units with a sample standard deviation of 4

Mean of the first sample x₁⁻ =85

standard deviation of the first sample S₁ = 4

Given data the samples of material 2 gave an average of 81 and a sample standard deviation of 5.

Mean of the first sample x₂⁻ =81

standard deviation of the first sample S₂ = 5

Step :-2

Null hypothesis: H₀: there is no significance difference between that the abrasive wear of material 1 exceeds that of material 2 by more than 2 units

Alternative hypothesis :H₁: there is significance difference between that the abrasive wear of material 1 exceeds that of material 2 by more than 2 units
