A person recently read that 84% of cat owners are women. How large a sample should the researcher take if she wishes to be 90% confident that her proportion is within 3% of the true population proportion?

405

Step-by-step explanation:

To find sample size, use the following equation, where n = sample size, za/2 = the critical value, p = probability of success, q = probability of failure, and E = margin of error.

The values that are given are p = 0.84 and E = 0.03.

You can solve for the critical value which is equal to the z-score of  (1 - confidence level)/2.  Use the calculator function of invNorm to find the z-score.  The value will given with a negative sign, but you can ignore that.

(1 - 0.9) = 0.1/2 = 0.05

invNorm(0.05, 0, 1) = 1.645

You can also solve for q which is 1 - p.  For this problem q = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16

Plug the values into the equation and solve for n.

Round up to the next number, giving you 405.

42%

step-by-step explanation:

we know,

total people = 60

total males = 25

percentage of males

= 25/60 × 100

= 25/6 × 10

= 25/3 × 5

= 125 / 3

= 41.

rounding of = 42%
