A teacher initially plans to take an SRS of size 50 from his large high school and calculate the sample mean x bar of student GPAs. Later, the teacher decides to increase the sample size so that the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x bar will be half as big as when using a sample size of 50. What sample size should the teacher use?
