Suppose that the ages of members in a large billiards league have a known standard deviation of σ = 12 σ=12sigma, equals, 12 yea

rs. Hernando plans on taking a random sample of n nn members from this population to make a 95 % 95%95, percent confidence interval for the mean age in the league. He wants the margin of error to be no more than 5 55 years. Which of these is the smallest approximate sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error?

Answer:

n\geq 23

Step-by-step explanation:

-For a known standard deviation, the sample size for a desired margin of error is calculated using the formula:

n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{ME})^2

Where:

  • \sigma is the standard deviation
  • ME is the desired margin of error.

We substitute our given values to calculate the sample size:

n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{ME})^2\\\\\geq (\frac{1.96\times 12}{5})^2\\\\\geq 22.13\approx23

Hence, the smallest desired sample size is 23

Answer:

A)  B is greater

B) when C = 21, A = 5 and B = 15

C) A must be 0, 5, or 12 for C to be greater than B

Step-by-step explanation:

A)  when a = -3, c = -20 and b = 4(-3)-5 so B = -17

B) when c = 21, a = 5 and b = 4(5)-5 so B = 15

C) C is greater than B when a = 0, 5, and 12

when a = 0, b = 4(0)-5 or -5

when a = 5, b = 4(5)-5 or 15

when a = 12, b = 4(12)-5 or 43
