Juan wants to estimate a population mean age of residents of a retirement community. Based on previous evidence, he believes the population standard deviation is approximately σ=7.4σ=7.4 years. Juan would like to be 99% confident that his estimate is within 1.6 years of the true population mean, and asks you to help him determine the appropriate minimum sample size. How large of a sample size should Juan use?
A random sample of 45 adult coyotes in a region of northern Minnesota showed the average age to be 2.06 years, with a sample standard deviation of 0.89 years. However, it is thought that the overall population mean age of the coyotes is 1.77 years. Match the numerical values from the problem to the corresponding symbols below. If a symbol does not have a corresponding value, mark it as "DNE." n μ = S=
