Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

PS is a midsegment of the triangle, so is half the length of the parallel base segment.

2PS = QR

2(x -16) = x +29 . . . . . substitute given expressions

2x -32 = x +29 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

x = 61 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 32-x

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is $p = 0.41$

The level of significance is $\alpha = 0.10$

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p \le 0.41$

The alternative hypothesis $H_1 : p> 0.41$
