The critical value that corresponds to a 91% confidence level is 1.7
What is critical value?
'Critical value is a cut-off value that is used to mark the start of a region where the test statistic, obtained in hypothesis testing, is unlikely to fall in. In hypothesis testing, the critical value is compared with the obtained test statistic to determine whether the null hypothesis has to be rejected or not.'
According to the given problem,
Confidence level = 91%
Now, α = ( 100 - 91 ) %
= 9%
= 0.09
Area of each tail = [tex]\frac{0.09}{2}[/tex]
= 0.045
Area in the middle = 1 - 0.045
= 0.955
Now, if we look up this area on the z-table, the critical value will come as 1.6954, which is nearly equal to 1.7.
Hence, we can conclude, the critical value is 1.7.
