Answer:

The sample size is  n = 1043

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The lower bound of the range is a = 51

  The upper bound of the range is b =  710

    The margin of error is E = 10

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

       \sigma =  \frac{b- a}{4}

=>    \sigma =  \frac{710 - 51 }{4}

=>    \sigma = 164.75

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.05

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

    n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \sigma }{E} ] ^2

=> n = [ 1.96  *  164.75 }{10} ] ^2

=> n = 1043
