Answer:

C. Decreases the margin of error and hence increases the precision

Step-by-step explanation:

If we select a sample by Simple Random Sampling in a population of “infinite” size (a population so large that we do not know its size exactly), then the margin of error is given by

\bf E=\frac{ZS}{\sqrt{n}}

where  

<em>Z = The Z-score corresponding to the confidence level </em>

<em>S = The estimated standard deviation of the population </em>

<em>n = the size of the sample. </em>

As we can see, since n is in the denominator of the fraction and the numerator is kept constant, the larger the sample size the smaller the margin of error, so the correct choice is:

C. Decreases the margin of error and hence increases the precision

Sloan [31]

Answer:

b = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

the value of the discount is a constant, while the total cost of the books is a variable because it depends of the purchase

We can write this equation

5b - 7 = 58

Solve it

1) add 7 at both members

5b -7 + 7 = 58 + 7

5b = 65

2) divide both membera by 5

b = 13

Tom [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

P(head) = \frac{1}{2}

P(4) = \frac{1}{6}
