IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

h. 36

Step-by-step explanation:

For a 68.26% confidence, z = 1.0.

Standard deviation (s) = 30 minutes

The sample size needed to assure that the sample mean does not differ from the true mean by more than 5 minutes is given by:

$5\geq z*\frac{s}{\sqrt n}\\\sqrt n\geq 1*\frac{30}{5}\\n\geq 36$

The sample size needed is 36.
