Question 310836
Given a level of confidence of 95% and a population standard deviation of 8, what other information is necessary:
(A) To find the Maximum Error of Estimate (E)?
E = zs/sqrt(n)
Ans: sample size
----------------------------

(B) To find the sample size (n)?
n = [zs/E]^2
----------

(C) Given the above confidence level and population standard deviation, find the Maximum Error of Estimate (E) if n = 45. Show all your calculations. Show all work.
E = 1.96*8/sqrt(45)
----------------------------
(D) For this same sample of n = 45, what is the width of the confidence interval around the population mean? Show all work.
The width of the interval is always 2*E
-----------------------------------------------

(E) Given this same confidence level and standard deviation, find n if E = 2.5. (Always round to the nearest whole person.) Show all work.
n = [1.96*8/2.5]^2
