Answer:
a) To determine the minimum sample size we need to use the formula shown in the picture 1.
E is the margin of error, which is the distance from the limits to the middle (the mean) of the confidence interval. This means that we have to divide the range of the interval by 2 to find this distance.
E = 0.5/2 = 0.25
Now we apply the formula
n = (1.645*0.80/0.25)^2 = 27.7 = 28
The minimum sample size would be 28.
b) To answer the question we are going to make a 90% confidence interval. The formula is:
(μ - E, μ + E)
μ is the mean which is 127. The formula for E is shown in the picture.
E = 0.80*1.645/√8 = 0.47
(126.5, 127.5)
This means that the true mean is going to be contained in this interval 90% of the time. This is why it doesn't seem possible that the population mean is exactly 128.
I attached the document with the answers and work with the formulas. Since the formulas and fractions don't work very well with this site (especially the pi symbol, they should fix that).
