A public relations officer of William Paterson University wants to estimate the mean IQ of the university students. If she wants to be 99% confident that her sample mean is off by no more than 3 points, how many students she has to test in order to come up with a valid estimation? A recent study shows that IQ of New Jersey students has standard deviation of 15 points.

She has to test 166 students in order to come up with a valid estimation.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of .

So it is z with a pvalue of , so

Now, find M as such

In which is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

If she wants to be 99% confident that her sample mean is off by no more than 3 points, how many students she has to test in order to come up with a valid estimation?

She test have at least n students, in which n is found . So

Rouding up

She has to test 166 students in order to come up with a valid estimation.

-2 is the right

answer: $201

step-by-step explanation: to get the answer, you first get 3 nieces that he sold and multiply it by 67 and get $201, so he earned $201 selling his nieces.
