9) The mean salary of people living in a certain city is $37,500 with a standard deviation of $2,103. A sample of n people will be selected at random from those living in the city. Find the smallest sample size n that will guarantee at least a 90% chance of the sample mean income being within $500 of the population mean income. Round your answer up to the next largest whole number.
you are right this is whole question i need it corrected as
soon as possible and explained i don't get my mistake

(c) A sample of 80 people is selected at random from a demographic group to complete a questionnaire on lifestyle choices. As part of this survey, each respondent is asked whether he or she regularly take part in organised sport. It is known that 29% of all the people in the demographic group regularly take part in organised sport. Use a suitable approximation to calculate the probability that at least 20 of the people in the sample regularly take part...

1. A random sample of n measurements was selected from a population with standard deviation σ=13.6 and unknown mean μ. Calculate a 90 % confidence interval for μ for each of the following situations: (a) n=45, x¯¯¯=89.8 ≤μ≤ (b) n=70, x¯¯¯=89.8 ≤μ≤ (c) n=100, x¯¯¯=89.8 ≤μ≤ (d) In general, we can say that for the same confidence level, increasing the sample size the margin of error (width) of the confidence interval. (Enter: ''DECREASES'', ''DOES NOT CHANGE'' or ''INCREASES'', without the...
