Response:
Clarification:
The explanation for the provided question is outlined below:
The hypothesis test indicates that
The test statistic calculated is
= 2.1
As per the given information, α = 0.05,
Thus, the critical threshold is
(as per the standard normal table).
Summarily
Answer:
2.1 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer to the attached illustration (you need to include all the mentioned locations and the distances between them),
enabling us to create a right triangle between the school and the hospital with side measures of: 1.7 and 1.2 miles
and the green line represents the direct path from the school to the hospital; thus, applying the Pythagorean theorem will yield the result:
When rounded to the nearest tenth:
2.1 miles
