Using the z-distribution, a sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error is:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • \sigma is the standard deviation for the population.

Assuming an uniform distribution, the standard deviation is given by:

S = \sqrt{\frac{(4 - 0)^2}{12}} = 1.1547

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.95, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975, so the critical value is z = 1.96.

The sample size is found solving for n when the margin of error is of M = 0.006, hence:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

0.006 = 1.96\frac{1.1547}{\sqrt{n}}

0.006\sqrt{n} = 1.96 \times 1.1547

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}\right)^2

n =  142,282.

A sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

There are 4 lateral faces that are triangles.  Each triangle is: A = \frac{b  x  h}{2}
A = \frac{16  x  22}{2}
   = 176

There is one base that is a square. A = L x W
A = 16 x 16
   =  256

Surface area = 256 + 4(176)
                     =  256 + 704
                     = 960
