The 20-inch rod forms a right triangle with the 15 inches tall box

The value of x in the diagram is 13.2 inches

<h3>How to determine the value of x</h3>

To calculate the value of x, we make use of the following Pythagoras theorem

$20^2 = 15^2 + x^2$

Evaluate the exponents in the above equation

$400 = 225 + x^2$

Subtract 225 from both sides of the equation

$175 = x^2$

Take the square root of both sides

$x = 13.2$

Hence, the value of x in the diagram is 13.2 inches

Answer:

Confidence interval: (0.04649,0.04913)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 100,000

Number of people who donated, x = 4781

$\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{4781}{100000} = 0.04781
$

95% Confidence interval:

$\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

Putting the values, we get:

$0.04781
\pm 1.96(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.04781
(1-0.04781
)}{100000}})\\\\=0.04781
\pm 0.00132\\\\=(0.04649,0.04913)$

is the required 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of their entire mailing list who may donate.
