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.

current rules for telephone area codes allow the use of digits 2-9 for the first digit and 0-9 for the second and third digits.
lukranit [14]
In this question, there are 10 digit phone number which was divided into 3-3-4 digits. Every first digit of the division should be 2-9 which mean only 8 possibilities. The other digits would be 0-9 which mean 10 possibilities. Then the calculation would be:

8*10*10   *    8*10*10    *   8*10*10*10  = 8^3 * 10*7= 512 * 10^7= 5.12 * 10^9

If you convert <span>400,000,000 into the scientific form it will become 4* 10^8. Since 5.12*10^9 > 4 * 10^8, then it is clear that the number should be enough</span>
