A researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of adults who have​ high-speed Internet access. What size sample should be obtain
slega [8]

Answer: 8359

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for sample size needed for interval estimate of population proportion :-

n=p(1-p)(\frac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2

Given : The significance level : \alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}}=z_{0.025}=\pm1.96

Previous estimate of proportion : p=0.32

Margin of error : E=0.01

Now, the required sample size will be :-

n=0.32(1-0.32)(\frac{1.96}{0.01})^2=8359.3216\approx8359

Hence, the required sample size = 8359

What is the quotient of StartFraction 7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline EndFraction? Star
Komok [63]

The quotient of the number given number  7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline is 7.

<h3>What is the quotient?</h3>

Quotient is the resultant number which is obtain by dividing a number with another. Let a number a is divided by number b. Then the quotient of these two number will be,

q=\dfrac{a}{b}

Here, (<em>a, b</em>) are the real numbers.

The number StartFraction 7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline EndFraction, given can be written as,

\dfrac{7^{-1}}{7^{-2}}

Let the quotient of this division is n. Therefore,

n=\dfrac{7^{-1}}{7^{-2}}

A number in numerator of a fraction with negative exponent can be written in the denominator with the same but positive exponent and vise versa. Therefore,

n=\dfrac{7^{2}}{7^{1}}\\n=7

Hence, the quotient of the number given number  7 Superscript negative 1 Baseline Over 7 Superscript negative 2 Baseline is 7.
