After calculating the sample size needed to estimate a population proportion to within 0.05, you have been told that the maximum

allowable error (E) must be reduced to just 0.025. If the original calculation led to a sample size of 1000, the sample size will now have to be

Answer:  40000

Step-by-step explanation:

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

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2, where p is the prior estimate of the population proportion.

Here we can see that the sample size is inversely proportion withe square of margin of error.

i.e. n\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{E^2}

By the equation inverse variation, we have

n_1E_1^2=n_2E_2^2

Given : E_1=0.05   n_1=1000

E_2=0.025

Then, we have

(1000)(0.05)^2=n_2(0.025)^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2.5=0.000625n_2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n_2=\dfrac{2.5}{0.000625}=4000

Hence, the sample size will now have to be 4000.

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

5⁶⁴ = 152587890625⁴ bacteria's at 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple..

it means the bacteria is increasing exponentially.

This is a geometric progression.

at 0 hrs = 0 bacteria

at 1 hr = 5 bacteria

at 2hr = 25 " = 5²

at 3hrs = 25 x 25 = 5² x 5² = 5⁴

at 4hrs = (25x25) x (25x25) = 5⁴x5⁴ = 5⁸

at 5hrs = (5⁸)² = 5⁸ˣ² = 5¹⁶

at 6 hrs = (5¹⁶)² = 5¹⁶ˣ²= 5³²

at 7 hrs = (5³²)² = 5³²ˣ² = 5⁶⁴

5⁶⁴ = 152587890625⁴
