Answer:
the base of the ladder is 27.89 ft away from the building
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that this situation can be represented with a right angle triangle. The right angle being that made between the ground and the building, the ladder (32 ft long) being the hypotenuse of the triangle, the acute angle of being adjacent to the unknown side we are asked about (x). So, we can use the cosine function to solve this:
which rounded to the nearest hundredth gives;
x = 27.89 ft
Answer:
Option B is correct.
Use the difference in sample means (10 and 8) in a hypothesis test for a difference in two population means.
Step-by-step Explanation:
The clear, complete table For this question is presented in the attached image to this solution.
It should be noted that For this question, the running coach wants to test if participating in weekly running clubs significantly improves the time to run a mile.
In the data setup, the mean time to run a mile in January for those that participate in weekly running clubs and those that do not was provided.
The mean time to run a mile in June too is provided for those that participate in weekly running clubs and those that do not.
Then the difference in the mean time to run a mile in January and June for the two classes (those that participate in weekly running clubs and those that do not) is also provided.
Since, the aim of the running coach is to test if participating in weekly running clubs significantly improves the time to run a mile, so, it is logical that it is the improvements in running times for the two groups that should be compared.
Hence, we should use the difference in sample means (10 and 8) in a hypothesis test for a difference in two population means.

Answer:
The population of the small community, 5 years into the future, after the initial 20-year period = 4268.
Step-by-step explanation:
t | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20
p | 100 | 200 | 450 | 950 | 2000
The exponential function will look like
p = aeᵏᵗ
where a and k are constants.
Take the natural logarithms of both sides
In p = In aeᵏᵗ
In p = In a + In eᵏᵗ
In p = In a + kt
In p = kt + In a.
We then use linear regression to fit the data of In p against t to obtain k and In a.
t | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20
p | 100 | 200 | 450 | 950 | 2000
In p | 4.605 | 5.298 | 6.109 | 6.856 | 7.601
In p = kt + In a.
y = mx + b
m = k and b = In a
Performing a linear regression analysis on the now-linear relationship between In p and t and also plotting a graph of the variables.
The regression equation obtained is
y = 0.151x + 4.584
The first attached image shows the equations necessary for the estimation of the linear regression parameters.
The second attached image shows the use of regression calculator and the plot of the function In p versus t.
Comparing
y = 0.151x + 4.584
With
In p = kt + In a.
y = In p
k = 0.151
x = t
In a = 4.584
a = 97.905
The exponential function relating p and t,
p = aeᵏᵗ now becomes
p = 97.905 e⁰•¹⁵¹ᵗ
So, to predict the population 5 years into the future, that is 5 years after the 20 year period.
we need p at t=25 years.
0.151 × 25 = 3.775
p(t=25) = 97.905 e³•⁷⁷⁵ = 4268.41 = 4268.
Hope this Helps!!!
