Find the side length:

Side = 68/4 = 17

Now use Pythagorean theorem:

Diagonal = sqrt(17^2 + 17^2)

Diagonal = sqrt(289 + 289)

Diagonal = sqrt(578)

Diagonal = 24 feet

The answer is B. 24 feet

Answer:

We need a sample size of 564.

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 $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

$\pi = \frac{81}{130} = 0.6231$

The margin of error is:

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

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 $Z = 1.96$ .

Based upon a 95% confidence interval with a desired margin of error of .04, determine a sample size for restaurants that earn less than $50,000 last year.

We need a sample size of n

n is found when $M = 0.04$
