A pilot sample of 50 measurements of the breaking strength of cotton threads gave S_(pr) = 18 grams. Determine the sample size needed to obtain a 90% Confidence Interval of length 4. I tried using the sample size formula but that did not gave me the right answer, according to the book the answer is n = 220.
