Mark drew a regular octagon with side lengths of 10 inches. He divided the octagon into two identical trapezoids and a rectangle
. He measured the height of one of the trapezoids to be 7 inches, and the width of the rectangle to be 24 inches. Find the area of the octagon.

we know that
If line b is perpendicular to line a, and line c is perpendicular to line a,
then
line b and line c are parallel
and two lines parallel have the same slope
so
<u>Find the slope of the line b</u>
Let
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
substitute
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
<u>the slope of the line c is</u>
Answer:
a: Sample mean: 20, Sample standard deviation: 1.732
b: 19.13 <µ < 20.87
c: 18.84< µ < 21.16
d: as the confidence level increases, the interval becomes wider
Step-by-step explanation:
a: Sample mean is found by adding up all the individual values of the sample, then dividing by the total number of values in the sample.
Sample standard deviation is the square root of the variance
See the first attached photo for the calculations of these values.
We need to create a 80% confidence interval for the population. Since n < 30, we will use a t-value with degree of freedom of 7 (the degree of freedom is always one less than the sample size.
Look for the column on the t-distribution chart that has "area in two tails" of 0.20 (80%), and row 7 (degree of freedom)
The t-value is 1.415
See the second attached photo for the construction of the confidence interval
We need to create a 90% confidence interval for the population. Since n < 30, we will use a t-value with degree of freedom of 7 (the degree of freedom is always one less than the sample size.
Look for the column on the t-distribution chart that has "area in two tails" of 0.10 (90%), and row 7 (degree of freedom)
The t-value is 1.895
