Answer:

45 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(θ) is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse

opposite side is the height and hypotenuse is the length of the string

100 Sin 25 gives the height from the hand.

100 x sin25 = 100 x 0.4226 = 42.26 feet from the hand.

Since the hand is 3 feet above the ground height is = 3+ 42.26 ≅ 45

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The answer is A (i just took the test)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: The outcomes do not appear to be equally likely, so a uniform probability model is not a good model to represent probabilities in Pilar's experiment

The outcomes are: 1 2 3 4 5

The Relative Frequency: 0.05   0.35   0.26   0.13     0.21

As you can see the outcomes do not appear to be equally likely since 0.05 and 1 are not close in number range along with the other options

RoseWind [281]
B + (-60) = -14

b = -74

What error, if any, did Maureen make?

Maureen's work is correct, and her original balance was -$74.

Maureen should have added 60 to both sides.

Maureen should have added 14 to both sides.

Maureen made a computational error when she subtracted -14 - 60
