(______,____.)
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
c. Choose the correct answer below.
A. Quadrupling the sample size while holding the confidence coefficient fixed decreases the width of the confidence interval by a factor of 4.
B. Quadrupling the sample size while holding the confidence coefficient fixed decreases the width of the confidence interval by a factor of 2.
C. Quadrupling the sample size while holding the confidence coefficient fixed increases the width of the confidence interval by a factor of 2.
D. Quadrupling the sample size while holding the confidence coefficient fixed increases the width of the confidence interval by a factor of 4.
E. Quadrupling the sample size while holding the confidence coefficient fixed does not affect the width of the confidence interval.
