You can put this solution on YOUR website! A random sample of 41 NBA players gave a standard deviation s = 3.32 inches for their height. How many more NBA players have to be included in the sample to make 95% sure that the sample mean ¯x of their height is within 0.75 inch of the mean µ of the height of the population of all NBA players.
------
n = [z*s/E]^2
----
n = [1.96*3.32/0.75]^2 = 76 when rounded up
