Answer:

She made a mistake in Step 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 through 6 are correct. Only from Step 6 to Step 7 the problem comes in: both sides of the equation are multiplied by x, however the x on the left side, by error, becomes 1. The correct state in Step 7 should look like this:

x(\frac{1}{2}P-x)=256

A nurse at a local hospital is interested in estimating the birth weight of infants. how large a sample must she select if she d
enyata [817]
For large sample confidence intervals about the mean you have: 

xBar ± z * sx / sqrt(n) 

where xBar is the sample mean z is the zscore for having α% of the data in the tails, i.e., P( |Z| > z) = α sx is the sample standard deviation n is the sample size
 
We need only to concern ourselves with the error term of the CI, In order to find the sample size needed for a confidence interval of a given size.

z * sx / sqrt(n) = width. 

so the z-score for the confidence interval of .98 is the value of z such that 0.01 is in each tail of the distribution. z = 2.326348 

The equation we need to solve is:
z * sx / sqrt(n) = width 
n = (z * sx / width) ^ 2. 
n = ( 2.326348 * 6 / 3 ) ^ 2 
n = 21.64758 

Since n must be integer valued we need to take the ceiling of this solution.
n = 22
