Answer:

x = 6.

y = 6.7.

z = 13.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 triangles contained in the biggest one are similar, so:

x/12 = 3/x

x^2 = 36

x = 6.

Applying the Pythagoras theorem:

z^2 = 6^2 + 12^2

z^2 = 36 + 144 = 180

z = 13.4.

y^2 = x^2 + 3^2

= 36 + 9

= 45

y = 6.7

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all black adults who would welcome a white person into their families is (0.8222, 0.8978).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

323 blacks, 86% of blacks said that they would welcome a white person into their families. This means that $n = 323, p = 0.86$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.86 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.86*0.14}{323}} = 0.8222$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.86 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.86*0.14}{323}} = 0.8978$

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all black adults who would welcome a white person into their families is (0.8222, 0.8978).
