Answer:

The minimum sample size required to ensure that the estimate has an error of at most 0.14 at the 95% level of confidence is n=567.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the minimum sample size n needed to have a margin of error below 0.14.

The critical value of z for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

To do that, we use the margin of error formula in function of n:

MOE=\dfrac{z\cdot \sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\\n=\left(\dfrac{z\cdot \sigma}{MOE}\right)^2=\left(\dfrac{1.96\cdot 1.7}{0.14}\right)^2=(23.8)^2=566.42\approx 567

The minimum sample size to have this margin of error is n = 567.
