Sample size is controlled by three factors: level of confidence, maximum error of estimate, and standard deviation. T-F, and why or why not?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Sample size is controlled by three factors: level of confidence, maximum error of estimate, and standard deviation. T-F, and why or why not?
---
sample size = n = z*s/(ME)
---
sample size depends on level of confidence because it determines
the value of "z".
Sample size depends on ME because they are indirectly related: as
E increases, n decreases
Sample size is related to "s" because they are directly related:
as s increases, n increases

Ans: True
