Answer:

4 umbrellas

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Umbrellas Total Money

1 $12

2 $24

3 $36

4 $48

She can't go over $48 because $48 + $12 is $60, which is more than she has ($54). So the max amount of umbrellas she can buy is 4.

Answer:

A sample of $n = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3696*0.6304}}{E})^2$ is needed, in which E is the desired margin of error, as a proportion. If we find a decimal value, we round up to the next whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is of:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In a previous study of 1012 randomly chosen respondents, 374 said that there should be such a law.

This means that $n = 1012, \pi = \frac{374}{1012} = 0.3696$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

How large a sample size is needed to be 95% confident with a margin of error of E?

A sample size of n is needed, and n is found when M = E.

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$E = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3696*0.6304}{n}}$

$E\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.3696*0.6304}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3696*0.6304}}{E}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3696*0.6304}}{E})^2$

$n = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3696*0.6304}}{E})^2$

A sample of $n = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3696*0.6304}}{E})^2$ is needed, in which E is the desired margin of error, as a proportion. If we find a decimal value, we round up to the next whole number.

Your number is 57.
Because....
47 + 10 = 57
67 - 10 = 57
Hope that helps!
