Polygon area = n*side length^2 / [4*tan(180/n)]
side length^2 = polygon area * [4*tan(180/n)] / n
where n is the number of sides
side length^2 = 55 sq inches * (4*tan(180/6)) / 6
side length^2 = 55 sq inches * 4 * tan (30) / 6
side length^2 = (55 sq inches * 4 * 0.57735) / 6
side length^2 = <span> <span> <span> 127.017 </span> </span> </span> / 6
side length^2 = <span> <span> <span> 21.1695 </span> </span> </span>
side length = square root ( <span> <span> <span> 21.1695 </span> </span> </span> )
side length = <span> <span> <span> 4.6010324928 </span> </span> </span>

Scientists collect data on the blood cholesterol levels (milligrams per deciliter of blood) of a random sample of 24 laboratory
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: (a) There is a clear outlier in the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement relates that sample= 24

Confidence interval= 80.2 to 89.8.

Now the data does not mention anywhere the standard deviation which is an important parameter in using the t-procedure rather we assume that standard deviation is not known. So, the most worrying part is the skewness and the presence of strong outliers in the t-procedure.

So, the option a) is correct meaning a clear outlier in the data.
