12. (6p) A nurse at a local hospital is interested in estimating the birth weight of infants. What is the minimum sample size she must select if she desires to be 95% confident that the true mean is within 2 ounces of the sample mean? The population standard deviation of the birth weights is known to be 5 ounces. Assume the population is normally distributed. Round to the whole number.
