your answers to 4 decimal places. Use z-table.
a. n=100
b. n=200
c. n=500
d. n=1,000
e. What is the advantage of a larger sample size?
With a larger sample, there is a (lower/higher) probability will
be within (plus or minus) +-0.05 of the population proportion .

A university believes that the average retirement age among the
faculty is now 70 instead of the historical value of 65. A sample
of 35 faculty found that the average of their expected retirement
age is 68.4 with a standard deviation of 3.6. Conduct the
appropriate hypothesis test to determine if the mean retirement age
is not equal to 70.
