For numbers 29 and 30: A quality control inspector of SACA Hygiene Products, Inc. would like to estimate the mean thickness of table napkins produced by a machine. The machine is set to produce table napkins with a standard deviation of 20 microns. Thickness of table napkins is normally distributed. 29. How large an error would be committed if the inspector wants to estimate the mean thickness with a 95% confidence based on a simple random sample of 25 napkins from the machine? O A. 1.32 microns B. 6.58 microns O C. 1.57 microns O D. 7.84 microns
