Question
You want to obtain a sample to estimate how much parents spend on their kids birthday parties. Based on previous study, you believe the population standard deviation is approximately σ=61.5σ=61.5 dollars. You would like to be 99% confident that your estimate is within 1 dollar(s) of average spending on the birthday parties. How many moms do you have to sample? Do not round mid-calculation.
