A soccer ball manufacturer wants to estimate the mean circumference of mini-soccer balls within 0.05 inch. Assume the population of circumferences is normally distributed. (a) Determine the minimum sample size required to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 0.25 inch. (b) Repeat part (a) using a population standard deviation of 0.35 inch. (a) The minimum sample size with a population standard deviation of 0.25 inch is nothing ______ balls. (Round up to the nearest integer.) (b) The minimum sample size with a population standard deviation of 0.35 inch is _____ balls. (Round up to the nearest integer.)
