Dr. v. r. bencivenga and dr. stephen donald economics 329 homework question - belief in global warming in a large city a certain (unknown) proportion of adults believe that global warming is a liberal hoax designed to hurt oil companies. you plan to take a survey of n adults to "estimate" this proportion. you want to be able to say that your estimate is within three percentage points (i. e., within 0.03) of the true proportion, with 0.95 probability. what is the smallest sample size that guarantees that you would obtain a satisfactory estimate (an estimate that's within 0.03 of the true proportion, with probability 0.95)? provide an answer using an approximation based on the central limit theorem a. 752 b. 2135 c. 4269 d. 1068

d. 1068

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the proportion of adults believe that global warming is a liberal hoax designed to hurt oil companies.

Given : You plan to take a survey of n adults to "estimate" this proportion. You want to be able to say that your estimate is within three percentage points (i.e., within 0.03) of the true proportion, with 0.95 probability.

Margin of error : E= 0.03

We know that the z-value for 95% confidence =

Since the prior proportion of adults believe that global warming is a liberal hoax designed to hurt oil companies.  

We assume p = 0.5

Then by Central Limit Theorem , the required sample size would be :

Simply , we get

 [Rounded to the next whole number.]

Hence, the smallest sample size that guarantees that you would obtain a satisfactory estimate  =1068

∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.

step-by-step explanation:

given, a ∥ b and ∠1 ≅ ∠3 .we have to prove that e ∥ f

we know that ∠1≅∠3 and that a || b because they are given. we see that by the alternate exterior angles theorem. therefore, ∠2≅∠3 by the transitive property. so, we can conclude that e || f by the converse alternate exterior angles theorem.

we have to fill the missing statement.

transitivity property states that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.

now, given ∠1≅∠3 and by transitivity property ∠2≅∠3 .

hence, to apply transitivity property one angle must be common which is not in result after applying this property which is ∠1.

the only options in which ∠1 is present are ∠1 and ∠2, ∠1 and ∠4

∠1 and ∠4 is not possible ∵ after applying transitivity we didn't get ∠4.

hence, the missing statement is ∠1≅∠2.

so, ∠1≅∠2 by the alternate exterior angles theorem.
