A soccer ball manufacturer wants to estimate the meancircumference of soccer balls within 0.17 inch.
(a) Determine the minimum sample size required to construct a99% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume thepopulation standard deviation is 0.6 inch.
(b) The sample mean is 27.5 inches. With a sample size of 92, a99% level of confidence, and a population standard deviation of0.6 inch, does it seem possible that the population mean could beless than 27.6 inches? Explain.
