One company charges:
$376 + $12*h

Other company charges:
$280 + $15*h

They will both charge the same when:

$376 + $12*h = $280 + $15*h

96 = 3*h

hours = 32
Cost will be $760

Double Check
$376 + $12 * 32 hours = $760

$280 + $15 * 32 hours = $760

Answer:

a) 25

b) 67

c) 97

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.025 = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample. In this problem, $\sigma = 0.25$

(a) The desired margin of error is $0.10.

This is n when M = 0.1. So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.1 = 1.96*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.1\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.25$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{19.6*0.25}{0.1}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{19.6*0.25}{0.1})^{2}$

$n = 24.01$

Rounding up to the nearest whole number, 25.

(b) The desired margin of error is $0.06.

This is n when M = 0.06. So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.06 = 1.96*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.06\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.25$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{19.6*0.25}{0.06}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{19.6*0.25}{0.06})^{2}$

$n = 66.7$

Rounding up, 67

(c) The desired margin of error is $0.05.

This is n when M = 0.05. So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.05 = 1.96*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.25$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{19.6*0.25}{0.05}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{19.6*0.25}{0.05})^{2}$

$n = 96.04$

Rounding up, 97
