**Task Overview for Marketing Firm**You work for a marketing firm that has a large client in the automobile industry. You have been asked to estimate the proportion of households in Chicago that have two or more vehicles. Your task is to gather a random sample that could be used to estimate this proportion to within a 0.02 margin of error at a 95% level of confidence.**Objective**a) Without any prior research, determine what sample size should be gathered to obtain a 0.02 margin of error. Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.**Required Sample Calculation**n = [Textbox for input] households

margin of error = zα p(1-p)/n margin of error = 0.02 for 95% confidence interval zα = 1.96

You are the operations manager for an airline and you are considering a higher fare level for passengers in aisle seats. How many randomly selected air passengers must you survey? Assume that you want to be 90% confident that the sample percentage is within 5.5 percentage points of the true population percentage. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. a. Assume that nothing is known about the percentage of passengers who prefer aisle seats. (Round up to the nearest integer.) b. Assume that a prior survey suggests that about 38% of air passengers prefer an aisle seat. (Round up to the nearest integer.)
