Martha is indeed right when she states that -6 is a rational number. Just like the name implies, a rational number is a number that can be written as a/b with b not equal to 0. Since -6 can be written as -6/1, and since that is a ratio, that is why -6 is a rational number.

Answer: 267.

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is no prior information for the population proportion, then the formula we use to find the sample size to estimate the confidence interval :

$n=0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$ , where z* = Critical z-value and E + amrgin of error.

Let p = proportion of packages of ground beef sold at a particular store that have an actual fat content exceeding the fat content stated on the label.

Since , we have no prior information about p. so we use above formula

with E = 0.06 and critical value for 95% confidence =z* =1.96 [By z-table ] , we get

$n=0.25(\dfrac{1.96}{0.06})^2=0.25(32.6666)^2\\\\=(0.25)(1067.111111)\\\\=266.777777778\approx267$

Hence, the required sample size is 267.
