A decision maker is interested in estimating the mean of a population based on a random sample. She wants the confidence level to be 95​% and the margin of error to be + or - 0.50. She does not know what the population standard deviation​ is, so she has selected the pilot sample below. Based on this pilot​ sample, how many more items must be sampled so that the decision maker can make the desired confidence interval​ estimate? 8.6 4.85 10.98 15.21 14.88 16.96 1.27 9.09 14.47 5.61 7.28 3.25 2.52 6.13 6.91
