Answer: 471

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  The population standard deviation is estimated to be $500.

i.e .  \sigma=\$500

If a 97 percent confidence interval is used and an interval of $100 is desired.

i.e. Margin of error = half of interval

i.e. E= \dfrac{\$100}{2}=\$50

Significance level : 1-0.97=0.03

Critical value for 97% confidence interval : {z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.03/2}=2.17

Formula for sample size :

n=(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}\ \sigma}{E})^2\\\\=(\dfrac{2.17\times500}{50})^2\\\\=470.89\approx471

Hence, at-least 471 cardholders should be sampled.

Help Me Find The X Please
Papessa [141]

Answer:

x = 16

y = 16 sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp/hyp

sin 60 = y/ 32

Multiply each side by 32

32 sin 60 = y

32 ( sqrt(3) /2) = y

16 sqrt(2)

cos theta = adj/ hyp

cos 60 = x /32

32 cos 60 = x

32 (1/2) =x

16 =x
