Answer:

1677

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) p=0.35 and q = 0.65

Std error =[tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.35*0.65}{n} }[/tex]

Margin of error = 2.58*std error = 3%

i.e. [tex]2.58*0.477/\sqrt{n}= 0.03\\n = 1683\\[/tex]

Approximately 1677

2) Same method as above

Margin of error = 1.645 * [tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.85(0.15)}{n} }[/tex]=0.02

Hence n = 863

3) Margin of error = 1.96*[tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.45(0.55)}{875} }[/tex]

=0.0329

=0.033

(option d)
