Answer: 2172

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the sample size n , if the prior estimate of the population proportion(p) is known:

n= p(1-p)(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2 , where E=  margin of error and z* = Critical z-value.

Let p be the population proportion of adults have consulted fortune tellers.

As per given , we have

p= 0.20

E= 0.02

From z-table , the z-value corresponding to 98% confidence interval = z*=2.33

Then, the required sample size will be :

n= 0.20(1-0.20)(\dfrac{2.33}{0.02})^2

n= 0.20(0.80)(116.5)^2

n= 2171.56\approx2172

Hence, the required sample size = 2172

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation (x 2) (x 3) = 12.

<h3>What is Quadratic Equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation of the second degree in x. The quadratic equation in its standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0, where a and b are the coefficients, x is the variable, and c is the constant term.

Here, given equation:

  (x+2)(x+3) = 12

 x(x+3)+2(x+3) = 12

 x² + 3x + 2x + 6 = 12

 x² + 5x + 6 - 12 = 0

 x² + 5x - 6 = 0

 x² + 6x - x - 6 = 0

 x(x+6) -1(x+6) = 0

 (x+6)(x-1) = 0

Now, x + 6 = 0      or      x - 1 = 0

        x = -6           or      x = 1

Thus, the solution of the given equation is -6 and 1.
