Answer:

The number of people needed  is n =684  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The population proportion is  p = 0.65

   The margin of error is  E = 0.03

From the question we are told the confidence level is  90% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.10

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

       n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * p(1-p)

=>    n =[ \frac{1.645 }{0.03} ]^2 * 0.65(1-0.65)

=>    n =684

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The border will be 18.6 inches wide

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let the width be w</em>

<em>The length = 43 inches</em>

<em>Total wood = 800 square inches</em>

Formula for area of rectangle = length x width

<em>800 = 43 x w</em>

<em>w = 800/43</em>

w = 18.6 inches

Therefore, the border will be 18.6 inches wide.
