Use tangent to find the x.

tan(2) = $\frac{100}{x}$

$x = \frac{100}{tan(2)}$

Use a calculator to evaluate.

$x = \frac{100}{tan(2)}$ = 2863.6253

So, the boat is 2,863.63 feet from the shore.

A realtor would like to create a 95% confidence interval for the average price of a house in Franklin County, Ohio. To accomplis

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52$

$320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=320128$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=50324$ represent the population standard deviation

n=529 represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$
