decreases, a larger sample must be taken to ensure the desired accuracy.
2. The tolerance E = 0.125 inch requires a larger sample size. As error size
decreases, a larger sample must be taken to ensure the desired accuracy.
3. The tolerance E = 0.125 inch requires a larger sample size. As error size
increases, a larger sample must be taken to ensure the desired accuracy.
