You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population standard deviation is approximately σ = 24.2 σ=24.2. You would like to be 98% confident that your estimate is within 1 of the true population mean. How large of a sample size is required?

use a z* value accurate to TWO places for this problem. (Not z = 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

were is the equation

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
