Answer:

The correct answer is "1668". A further solution is provided below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Estimated proportion,

[tex]\hat{p} = \frac{574}{1007}[/tex]

  [tex]=0.57[/tex]

Margin of error,

E = 0.02

Level of confidence,

= 90%

= 0.90

Critical value,

[tex]Z_{0.10}=1.65[/tex]

Now,

⇒  [tex]0.02=1.65\times \sqrt{\frac{0.57\times 0.43}{n} }[/tex]

 [tex]0.0004=2.7225\times \frac{0.2451}{n}[/tex]

         [tex]n=\frac{2.7225\times 0.2451}{0.0004}[/tex]

             [tex]=1668.21[/tex]

or,

         [tex]n \simeq 1668[/tex]
