To compute the minimum sample size for an interval estimate of μ, we must first determine all of the following except

A) desired margin of error.
B) confidence level.
C) population standard deviation.
D) degrees of freedom.

Degrees of Freedom

Degrees of freedom refer to the number of values in a statistical calculation that are free to vary without violating the constraints of the calculation.

Population Standard Deviation

A measure of the dispersion or variability within a population data set, indicating how spread out the data points are from the mean.

Interval Estimate

An estimate of a population parameter that gives an interval believed to contain the parameter.

  • Differentiate the components that influence the margin of error in confidence intervals and the assessment of sample sizes requisite for such intervals.
