Expert Solution
Step 1

The critical value for 95% confidence level, i.e.,  is .

The corresponding confidence interval is computed as shown below:

\begin{array}{ccl} CI &amp; = &amp; \displaystyle \left( \bar X - z_c \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}, \bar X + z_c \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} \right) \\ \\ &amp; = &amp; \displaystyle \left( 0.152 - 1.96 \frac{0.001}{\sqrt{47}} , 0.152 + 1.96 \frac{0.001}{\sqrt{47}} \right) \\ \\ &amp; = &amp; (0.152, 0.152) \end{array}Probability homework question answer, step 1, image 1
