Answer:
16.2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can draw a picture. The cable goes from the top of the pole to the ground (with the pole on the right in my drawing), and the point on the ground is 10 m away from the base of the pole. This forms a right triangle, with the right angle being between the 10 m distance and the pole itself. We can then apply the Pythagorean Theorem, so
a²+b²=c², with c being the side opposite the right angle (the cable), getting us
10²+(length of pole)² = 19²
19²-10²=(length of pole)²
= 261
square root both sides to isolate the length of the pole
length of pole ≈ 16.2 m
Using the z-distribution, it is found that she should take a sample of 46 students.
<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>
The confidence interval is:
The margin of error is:
In which:
is the sample mean.
- z is the critical value.
- n is the sample size.
is the standard deviation for the population.
In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of
, so the critical value is z = 1.96.
Scores on the math portion of the SAT are believed to be normally distributed and range from 200 to 800, hence, by the Empirical Rule the standard deviation is found as follows:
The sample size is n when M = 29, hence:
n = 45.67.
Rounding up, a sample of 46 students should be taken.
