You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable estimate for the

Vesna [10]

Answer:

A sample size of at least 1,353,733 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

You would like to be 98% confident that you esimate is within 0.1% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?

We need a sample size of at least n.

n is found when M = 0.001.

Since we don't have an estimate for the proportion, we use the worst case scenario, that is $\pi = 0.5$

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.001 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.001\sqrt{n} = 2.327*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*0.5}{0.001}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.327*0.5}{0.001})^{2}$

$n = 1353732.25$

Rounding up

A sample size of at least 1,353,733 is required.

Three roots of a fifth degree polynomial function f(x) are -2,2 and 4 + i which statement describes the number and nature of all

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

f(x) has three real roots and two imaginary roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that three roots of a fifth degree polynomial function f(x) are -2,2 and (4+i).

Now we need to find about which of the given statements describes the number and nature of all roots for this function.

We know that imaginary roots always occur in conjugate pairs.

So if (4+i) is root then (4-i) must also be the root.

So now we have total 4 roots

-2, 2, (4+i) and (4-i).

Degree of the polynomial is 5 so that means 1 root is still remaining. It can't be imaginary as that must be in pairs

So that means 5th root is real.

Hence correct choice is :

f(x) has three real roots and two imaginary roots.

28% of what number is 63

Scrat [10]

We set up a proportion: 63/?= 28/100

Cross multiply: 28*?= 63*100
⇒ ?= 63*100/28= 225

28% of 225 is 63.
