Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The size of the sample needed = 67.65

Explanation:

Given that :

The margin of error = 10% = 0.10

The confidence level = 90% = 0.90

Level of significance = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

At ∝ = 0.10

Z_{\alpha/2}= Z_{0.10/2} = 1.645

Since the proportion of people that supported him/her is not given, we assumed p = 0.50

The margin of error formula can be expressed as:

M.O.E = Z_{\alpha/2} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

0.10 = 1.645 \times \sqrt{{\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{n}

Squaring both sides; we have:

0.10^2 = 1.645^2 \times {\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{n}

0.01 = 2.706025 \times \dfrac{0.25}{n}

n= 2.706025 \times \dfrac{0.25}{0.01 }

n = 67.65

Therefore, the required sample size = 67.65
