Answer:

A counterexample for a conjecture is the statement that disproves a conjecture.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : What is a counterexample for the conjecture?

Solution :

A conjecture is an educated guess but not yet proven. It is possible that next example shown the conjecture wrong.

A counterexample is an example that disproves or disagree a conjecture.

For example : Prime numbers - 3,7,11,23

Conjecture - All prime numbers are odd

Counterexample - 2

→ 2 is a prime number but not odd, it is an even number.

One person wants to get a 95% z-confidence interval with a margin of error of at most 15 based on a population standard deviatio

Bess [88]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{1.96(60)}{15})^2 =61.46 \approx 62$

So the answer for this case would be n=62 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample
