Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The value is
z = \pm 1.645

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of observation is greater than 50 i.e. n > 50

The level of significance is
\alpha = 0.1

Generally given that n > 30 then we will make use of the z table

So

From the z table the critical value corresponding to the level of significance level for a two-tailed test is


z = \pm 1.645
