The margin of error of the random selection is 0.20

The given parameters are:

n = 420 --- the sample size

\sigma = 1.6 --- the standard deviation

\bar x = 10 --- the mean

\alpha = 99\% --- the confidence level.

The margin of error (E) is calculated as follows:

E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2}{n}}

So, we have:

E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{1.6^2}{420}}

E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{2.56}{420}}

The z-value for 99% confidence level is 2.576.

Substitute 2.576 for z

E = 2.576 \times \sqrt{\frac{2.56}{420}}

E = 2.576 \times \sqrt{0.006095}

Take square roots

E = 2.576 \times 0.0781

Multiply

E = 0.2012

Approximate

E = 0.20

Hence, the margin of error is 0.20

X + (x + 10) = 154
2 x + 10 = 154
2 x = 154-10 = 144
x = 72 (ans)
