A 97% confidence interval for the mean of a population is to be constructed and must be accurate to within 0.3 unit. A preliminary sample standard deviation is 1.4. The smallest sample size n that provides the desired accuracy is

The sample size will be "". A further explanation is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sample size will be:

= n

The given values are:

Standard deviation,

= 1.4

ME,

= 0.3

As we know,

⇒

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒    

⇒

the fist one is not equalvalent but i think th second one isand the third isnt definetly or the last one is i think. hope this !
