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.

In a right triangle abc, cd is an altitude, such that ad=bc. Find ac, if ab=3 cm, and cd= square root 2 cm.
Mashcka [7]

      <u>ΔACB</u>                                               <u>ΔCDA</u>

AC² + BC² = AB²                           AD² + CD² = AC²  

          BC² = AB² - AC²                 BC² + CD² = AC²        (AD=BC is given)

                                                                 BC² = AC² - CD²

                         AB² - AC² = AC² - CD²         (both sides were = to BC²)

                         AB² + CD² = 2AC²

                         (3)² + (√2)² = 2AC²            (AB=3 and CD=√2 were given)

                          9  +   2    = 2AC²

                               11        = 2AC²

                                \frac{11}{2}        = AC²

                                \sqrt{\frac{11}{2} }     = AC

                                \frac{11\sqrt{2} }{2}      = AC
