Applying BPT theorem in triangle MNP, which states that, If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting other two sides, then it divides the two sides in the same ratio.

\frac{MB}{BP}=\frac{MA}{AN}

\frac{x}{96.6-x}=\frac{80.5-35}{35}

\frac{x}{96.6-x}=\frac{45.5}{35}

35x= 45.5(96.6-x)

35x= 4395.3 - 45.5x

80.5x = 4395.3

x=54.6 meters

A sample of 26 offshore oil workers took part in a simulated escape exercise, resulting in the accompanying data on time (sec) t
solniwko [45]

Answer:

The upper confidence bound for population mean escape time is: 379.27

The upper prediction bound for the escape time of a single additional worker  is 413.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

sample size n = 26

sample mean \bar x =  371.08

standard deviation \sigma = 24.45

The objective is to calculate an upper confidence bound for population mean escape time using a confidence level of 95%

We need to determine the standard error of these given data first;

So,

Standard Error S.E = \dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}

Standard Error S.E = \dfrac{24.45 }{\sqrt{26}}

Standard Error S.E = \dfrac{24.45 }{4.898979486}

Standard Error S.E = 4.7950

However;

Degree of freedom df= n - 1

Degree of freedom df= 26 - 1

Degree of freedom df= 25

At confidence level of 95% and Degree of freedom df of  25 ;

t-value = 1.7080

Similarly;

The Margin of error = t-value × S.E

The Margin of error = 1.7080 × 4.7950

The Margin of error = 8.18986

The upper confidence bound for population mean escape time is = Sample Mean + Margin   of  Error

The upper confidence bound for population mean escape time is =  371.08 +  8.18986

The upper confidence bound for population mean escape time is = 379.26986  \approx 379.27

The upper confidence bound for population mean escape time is: 379.27

b.  Calculate an upper prediction bound for the escape time of a single additional worker using a prediction level of 95%.

The standard error of the mean = \sigma \times \sqrt{1+ \dfrac{1}{n}}

The standard error of the mean = 24.45 \times \sqrt{1+ \dfrac{1}{26}}

The standard error of the mean = 24.45 \times \sqrt{1+0.03846153846}

The standard error of the mean = 24.45 \times \sqrt{1.03846153846}

The standard error of the mean = 24.45 \times 1.019049331

The standard error of the mean = 24.91575614

Recall that : At confidence level of 95% and Degree of freedom df of  25 ;

t-value = 1.7080

∴

The Margin of error = t-value × S.E

The Margin of error = 1.7080 × 24.91575614

The Margin of error = 42.55611149

The upper prediction bound for the escape time of a single additional worker  is calculate by the addition of

Sample Mean + Margin of Error

= 371.08 + 42.55611149

= 413.6361115

\approx 413.64

The upper prediction bound for the escape time of a single additional worker  is 413.64
