A professor at a university wants to estimate the average number of hours of sleep the students get during exam week. The profes
balandron [24]

Answer:

The sample size is n = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The margin of error is  E =4.266

    The standard deviation is  \sigma = 2.539

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.01

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  2.58

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

   n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \sigma }{E} ] ^2

=>  n = [\frac{2.58  *  2.539  }{4.266} ] ^2

=>  n = 2
