If we wanted to create a new 90% confidence interval from a different sample for the proportion of those with a two on one date

while keeping the margin of error at 0.05, what would the needed sample size be? Assume you have no prior knowledge of the proportion.

Answer: 271

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we use to find the sample size is given by :-

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2

, where z_{\alpha/2} is the two-tailed z-value for significance level of (\alpha)

p = prior estimation of the proportion

E = Margin of error.

If prior estimation of the proportion is unknown, then we take p= 0.5 , the formula becomes

n=0.5(1-0.5)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2

n=0.25(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2

Given :   Margin of error : E= 0.05

Confidence level = 90%

Significance level \alpha=1-0.90=0.10

Using z-value table , Two-tailed z-value for significance level of 0.10

z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

Then, the required sample size would be :

n=0.25(\dfrac{1.645}{0.05})^2

Simplify,

n=270.6025\approx271

Hence, the required minimum sample size =271

The perimeter of a triangle is 170 feet and the sides are in the ratio of 25:14:12. Find the area of the triangle.
Viktor [21]
Let
x,y, and z the long sides of the triangle 

we know that

x+y+z=170 ft------> equation 1
x/y=25/14----> y=14x/25------> equation 2
y/z=14/12-----> equation 3
x/z=25/12----> z=12x/25------> equation 4

substitute equation 2 and equation 4 in equation 1
x+[14x/25]+[12x/25]=170------> multiply by 25 both sides
25x+14x+12x=4250
51x=4250
x=4250/51
x=250/3
y=14x/25------> y=(250/3)*(14/25)----> y=140/3
z=12y/14-----> (140/3)*12/14----> z=40

Using Heron's formula,
Area of the triangle = √s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
where s is the semiperimeter
s=170/2-----> s=85 ft
Area=√85*[85-250/3]*[85-140/3]*[85-40]
Area=9.22*[1.67]*[38.33]*[45]------> Area=26558.21 ft²

the answer is
26558.21 ft²
