Answer:

height of the statue = 299. 50 ft + 5.5 ft = 305.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture above illustrate Sarah's activities. The height of the statue can be computed below

Using SOHCAHTOA principle

tan 61° = opposite/adjacent

opposite = h

adjacent = 166 ft

tan 61° =   h/166

cross multiply

h = 166 tan 61°

h = 166 ×  1.8040477553

h =  299.47192738  ft

h ≈ 299. 50 ft

Since she is standing on the same level where the base of the statue spring from the height of the statue will be 299. 50 ft plus Sarah's height.

height of the statue = 299. 50 ft + 5.5 ft = 305.5 ft

Solution:

we are given that

Sarah sights the top of the Statue of Liberty at an angle elevation of 61 degrees. If Sarah is 5.5 ft tall and is standing 166 feet from the base of the statue, find its heigh.

The picture has been attched

In the Triangle ABC we can write

tan61=\frac{x}{5.5}\\
\\
x=tan61*5.5\\
\\
x=9.922 \approx 10

Hence the Height of the statue = 10+5.5=15.5ft

All the missing parts have been sketched in the diagram.

What is the value of 3 in 630
marysya [2.9K]
We can write 630 in expanded form as:
630 = 600 + 30 + 0
and in words:
630 = 6 hundreds, 3 tens and zero ones
the value 6 is 600
and the place value of 3 is 30 and the face value is 3 in the number 630.

Answer:

The <em>t</em>-value used for the 95% confidence interval of paired data is 2.776.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval formula for mean difference for a paired data is as follows:

CI=\bar x_{d}\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\times \frac{s_{d}}{\sqrt{n}}

Here,

\bar x_{d} = sample mean of the difference,

s_{d} = sample standard deviation of the difference,

<em>n </em>= sample size (both samples are of same size).

t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)} = critical value of <em>t</em>

(<em>n</em> - 1) = degrees of freedom

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 5

Confidence level = 95%

The critical value of <em>t</em> is:

t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.05/2, (5-1)}

               =t_{0.025, 4}

               =2.776

*Use a <em>t</em>-table for the critical value of <em>t</em>.

Thus, the <em>t</em>-value used for the 95% confidence interval of paired data is 2.776.

Write an equivalent expression for n x a using only addition
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Equivalent expression for n x a  = a+ a+a+a....n times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Expression for n x a .

To find : Write an equivalent expression for n x a using only addition.

Solution : We have given that n x a .

Here, we can say Sum of  a is n times.

We can rewrite it n x a  = a+ a+a+a....n times.

Example : 3 x 2 = 2 +2+ 2.

                   6 = 6 ( true)

Therefore , equivalent expression for n x a  = a+ a+a+a....n times.
