Answer: The pole is 3.5 foot above the right hand.
To answer this question first you need to determine the left hand height/position. The left hand divides the pole segment into 2:1 ratio. If the pole if 15 foot long, then the equation will be:
2/(2+1)x 15 foot= 10 foot.

The left hand is located 10 foot from the ground and the right hand is 1.5 foot above it. Then the right hand position from the ground is:
10 foot+ 1.5 foot= 11.5 foot

Since the right hand is 11.5 foot from ground and the pole is 15 foot long, then the equation will be:
15 foot- 11.5 foot= 3.5 foot.

Thomas wants to estimate the mean height of students attending his college. He records the heights of 25 randomly selected stude
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: B - The mean height of all the students of the college.

Explanation:

In statistics, the concept of parameter refers to the value that you want to know about a population to characterize it, for example, mean height, mean age, etc.

In this case, the value that you want to know about the population of the college is the mean height of its students, so the correct option is B.

The following concepts are used in statistics that can be applied to the given example:

- Population (all students of the university).

- Parameter (mean height of university students).

- Sample (the 25 randomly selected students).

- Elements (the heights of the selected students).

- Estimator (average height of randomly selected students).

Find the first partial derivatives of the function. (sn = x1 + 2x2 + ... + nxn; i = 1, ..., n. give your answer only in terms of
liq [111]

Answer:

  ∂u/∂xi = i·cos(sn)

Step-by-step explanation:

For u = sin(v), the partial derivative of u with respect to xi is ...

  ∂u/∂xi = cos(v)·∂v/xi

In this case, v=sn, and ∂sn/∂xi = i, so the derivatives of interest are ...

  ∂u/∂xi = i·cos(sn)

Given a grid with 15 sections, determine how many sections in the grid need to be shaded so the probability of a point chosen at
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8 is equal to 80%

you need to figure out 80% of 15

100% = 15

10% = 1.5

(x8)

80% = 12

you would need to shade 12 out of 15 boxes which gives 0.8 chance of picking a shaded one
