The pulse rates of 149 randomly selected adult males vary from a low of 45 bpm to a high of 121 bpm. Find the minimum sample size
required to estimate the mean pulse rate of adult males. Assume that we want 95% confidence that the sample mean is within 2 bpm of the
population mean. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
