Answer:

The minimum sample size required is (376.59\ \sigma^{2}).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>) % confidence interval for population mean is:

 CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha /2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error for this interval is:

 E= z_{\alpha /2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The information provided is:

 E = 0.101

Confidence level = 95%

α = 5%

Compute the critical value of <em>z</em> for α = 5% as follows:

 z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

Compute the sample size required as follows:

     E= z_{\alpha /2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}  

       n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{E}]^{2}

          =[\frac{1.96\times \sigma}{0.101}]^{2}\\\\=376.59\times \sigma^{2}

Thus, the minimum sample size required is (376.59\ \sigma^{2}).

Given the arithmetic sequence an = 3 + 2(n − 1), what is the domain for n?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The set of all positive integers equal to or greater than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

n can take on the integer values 1 ... ∞

The formula for the nth term is a(n) = a(1) + 2(n - 1)

First term:  n = 1.  Then a(1) = 3 + 2(0) = 3 (as expected).

5th term:  n = 5.  Then a(5) = 3 + 2(5 - 1) = 3 + 8 = 11

...

and so on.
