1)

When the population standard deviation is unknown, we use the t

distribution.
For the confidence interval always consider the two tail value.
Degrees of freedom, df = n-1 = sample size - 1
In this case, we can calculate the critical value by calculating it for
significance level 0.1 and df =49-1=48

T =1.676

2) Upper confidence interval =

where n is the sample size = 1000
p+ z
p (1 p)
n

p is the proportion = 42%=0.42

Z value at 95% confidence = 1.96
