Answer:
405
Step-by-step explanation:
To find sample size, use the following equation, where n = sample size, za/2 = the critical value, p = probability of success, q = probability of failure, and E = margin of error.
The values that are given are p = 0.84 and E = 0.03.
You can solve for the critical value which is equal to the z-score of (1 - confidence level)/2. Use the calculator function of invNorm to find the z-score. The value will given with a negative sign, but you can ignore that.
(1 - 0.9) = 0.1/2 = 0.05
invNorm(0.05, 0, 1) = 1.645
You can also solve for q which is 1 - p. For this problem q = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16
Plug the values into the equation and solve for n.
Round up to the next number, giving you 405.
Hey there!
Let's call this "number" x. We want four times the sum of this number and 15 to equal at least 120.
Therefore, we want this number times four plus fifteen to be greater than or equal to 120. We have:
Distribute:
Subtract:
Divide:
Your answer is C.
Hope this helps!
