A programming team is in the process of testing a new softwaremodule. As part of the effort, they need to estimate the successrate of the module when used with a particular operating system. Todo this, they plan to run the module on a randomly selected set ofcomputers, record how many individual runs execute properly, anduse that result to calculate the sample success rate (p-hat, thenumber of successes divided by the total number of tests). Assuminga confidence level of 99%, calculate n, the number ofcomputers they need to use for the test in order to ensure a 0.03margin of error in the success rate. Calculate n for thefollowing two cases: (1) no assumption is made about the value ofthe sample success rate, and (2) in a recent test of a similarsoftware module, that module ran successfully in 94% of the tests.Round your answers upward to the next higher integer.
(1) If no assumptions are made about the sample success rate,the sample size required to ensure a margin of error of 0.03 isn = .
(2) If it is assumed that the new module will run successfullyroughly in 94% of the tests, the required sample size required toensure a margin of error of 0.03 is n =
