Answer:
The value is [tex]n = 188 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The margin of error is [tex]E = 0.06[/tex]
From the question we are told the confidence level is 90% , hence the level of significance is
[tex]\alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]
Generally will assume that the sample proportion young adults in Louisville, Kentucky, who received help from their parents in buying a home is [tex]\^ p = 0.5[/tex]
Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as
[tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]
=> [tex]n = [\frac{1.645}{0.06 } ]^2 * 0.5 (1 - 0.5 ) [/tex]
=> [tex]n = 188 [/tex]
