You work for a marketing firm that has a large client in the automobile industry. You have been asked to estimate the proportion

of households in Chicago that have two or more vehicles. You have been assigned to gather a random sample that could be used to estimate this proportion to within a 0.03 margin of error at a 95% level of confidence. a) With no prior research, what sample size should you gather in order to obtain a 0.03 margin of error? Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

The sample size must be approximately 1067 to get a margin of error of 0.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Margin of error = 0.03

Significance level = 5%

Margin of error =

z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

Since, no prior proportions are given, we take

\hat{p} = 0.5

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

Putting values, we get,

0.03 = 1.96\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{n}}\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{1.96\times 0.5}{0.03}\\\\\\sqrt{n} = 32.67\\n = 1067.3289\approx 1067

Thus, the sample size must be approximately 1067 to get a margin of error of 0.03.

The perimeter of a right angled triangle is 56 cm and its hypotenuse is 25 cm. Find the area of triangle.​
Daniel [21]
Perimeter = 56
Hypo = 25
So 56-25 = 31 (for two side)
for one side = 31/2 = 15.5

so area = 1/2 x base x height

In the figure, the perimeter of hexagon ABCDEF is approximately
Nikitich [7]
First solve the length of side BC, CD, EF and FA   Since BC = CD = sqrt( 10^2 + 10^2) BC = CD = 14.1421  
FA = EF = sqrt(10^2 + 20^2) = 23.3607  
So the perimeter = 10 + 10 + 14.1421 + 14.1421 + 23.3607 = 93

The area is made up be triangle FAE, rectangle ABDE and triangle BCD
A = 0.5(20)(20) + (10)(20) + 0.5(20)(10)
<span>A = 500 sq units</span>
