a)
n=60 standard deviation=15 mean=80 CI=.95
1-.95=.05/2=.025
80+1.96(15/√60)=83.8 80-1.96(15/√60)=76.2
b)
1-.95=.05/2=.025
80+1.96(15/√120)=82.68 80-1.96(15/√120)=77.32
c) The effect of a larger sample size on an interval estimate caused the minimum population to go up and the max population went down.
