Given :

p = 0.68

margin of error, E = 0.1

99% confident interval

alpha, α = 1 - 0.99

             = 0.01

$\frac{\alpha }{2}=\frac{0.01}{2} = 0.005$

∴ $z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.005}=2.5758$ (z-critical value)

Sample size = $z_{\alpha/2} \times \frac{p(1-p)}{E^2}$

                    $=(2.5758)^2 \times 0.68 \times \frac{(1-0.68)}{0.1^2}$

                    $= 6.63475 \times 0.68 \times \frac{0.32}{0.01}$

                   = 144.37

                  = 145 (rounded off)

Therefore, there are 145 businesses does she need to sample to meet this criteria.

A deep sea diving bell is being lowered at a constant rate. After 10 ​minutes, the bell is at a depth of 600 ft. After 40 minute
Degger [83]
<h2>Average rate of lowering per​ minute = 36.67 ft/min</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

After 10 ​minutes, the bell is at a depth of 600 ft

After 10 minutes

                   Depth of bell = 600 ft

After 40 minutes the bell is at a depth of 1,700 ft.

After 40 minutes

                   Depth of bell = 1700 ft

Time gap = 40 - 10 = 30 minutes

Depth fallen = 1700 - 600 = 1100 ft

We have

           Depth fallen = Average rate of lowering per​ minute x Time gap

           1100 = Average rate of lowering per​ minute x 30

           Average rate of lowering per​ minute = 36.67 ft/min
