Answer:
a = √93
a ≈ 9.64
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem for this: a² + b² = c²
c is given as the hypotenuse, which is the pole with a length of 17 ft
c² is 17²
b is a leg with a height of 14 ft
b² = 14²
We need to find the base leg, a, distance from the wall to the base of the pole.
Solve:
a² + 14² = 17²
a² + 196 = 289
a² = 93
a = √93

Answer:
b. It will decrease by a factor of 2
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of
, and a confidence interval
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of
.
The lower end of the interval is given by:

The upper end of the interval is given by:

The length of the interval is the subtraction of the upper end by the lower end, so it is:

This means that the length is inverse proportional to the square root of the size of the sample.
So, if the sample size is multiplied by 4, the length of the interval is going to decrease by a factor of 2.
