OK for this question you need to find out how many more post are needed. If you look at the diagram it shows that one side is 50 feet. Now there are two sides that will need post, because the barn side need no more. Now if there are two side both 50 feet, and you need a post every ten feet. How many posts are needed?
Answer:
So the answer for this case would be n=67 rounded up
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given
represent the sample mean for the sample
population mean
represent the sample standard deviation
n represent the sample size
Solution to the problem
The margin of error is given by this formula:
(a)
And on this case we have that ME =400 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
(b)
The critical value for 98% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And the critical value would be
, replacing into formula (b) we got:
So the answer for this case would be n=67 rounded up
ANSWER

and

EXPLANATION
Since corresponding angles are equal,

Alternate angles are also equal, therefore,

Equation (2) minus equation (1) gives,


We put
in to equation (1)
