he pulse rates of
159
randomly selected adult males vary from a low of
39
bpm to a high of
103
bpm. Find the minimum sample size required to estimate the mean pulse rate of adult males. Assume that we want
98%
confidence that the sample mean is within
4
bpm of the population mean. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
a. Find the sample size using the range rule of thumb to estimate
sigmaσ.
Refer Standard normal table/Z-table, Lookup for Z-value corresponding to area 0.01 to the left of the normal curve or use excel formula "=NORM.S.INV(0.01)" to find the Z-value.
Use the Range rule of thumb to find the population standard deviation.
