Bank records show that the proportion of all mortgages that have a late payment at some point is 0.16. Assume that all conditions are met so the normal model is appropriate.
A. If we took samples of size n=150, what would be the center of the sampling distribution for p-hat?
B. If we took samples of size n=150, what would be the standard deviation of the sampling distribution for p-hat?
C. What is the probability that we observe a sample proportion greater than 0.2?
D. Which is more unusual, observing a sample proportion of 0.06 or observing a sample proportion of 0.30? How do you know?

Let's say you want to poll a random sample of 150 students on campus to see if they prefer to take online classes. Of course, if you took an actual poll you would only get one number (your sample proportion, p-hat). Imagine all the possible samples of 150 students that you could draw and the distribution of all the possible sample proportions you would get from them. If I told you that we know that 35% of all students actually...
Data from 2011 show that 45.6% of all flights from IAH departed late. If an analyst takes a simple random sample of 400 flights, what can be said about the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of flights that departed late? The sampling distribution will be approximately uniform with a mean of 45.6 The sampling distribution will be approximately normal with a mean of 0.456 and a standard deviation of 0.025. The sampling distribution will be approximately normal with a...
Lesson 6.2.4: Binomial Distribution and Sample Proportions A sample proportion, such as the one computed in Question 4, is equal to a number of successes (x), divided by the sample size (n). The notation for a sample proportion is p, and it is computed by the formula p = Each value of x corresponds to a unique sample proportion ( p ), as computed by this formula. For example, x = 1 implies p = + - 0.10. These events,...
Suppose we are interested in estimating the proportion p of a population that has a certain disease. As in Section 2.3 let y;-1 if person i has the disease, and yi 0 if person i does not have the disease. Then p . a Show, using the definition in (2.13), that 22 N- np If the population is large and the sampling fraction is small, so that write (2.26) in terms of the CV for a sample of size 1....
A fabric manufacturer believes that the proportion of orders for raw material arriving late is p = 0.6. If a random sample of 10 orders shows that 3 or fewer arrived late, the hypothesis that p = 0.6 should be rejected in favor of the alternative p < 0.6. Use the binomial distribution. Find the probability of committing a Type I error if the true proportion is p = 0.6. Recall, a Type I error is committed when the 'Null...
On the Sampling Distribution for the Sample Proportion app in artofstat.com, Select Populatio Proportion (p) to be 0.1. Keep the sample size (n) at 10. Under Select how many samples (of size n) you want to simulate drawing from the population, CHANGE this to 10,000 samples. Click on Draw Sample(s) ONCE. Notice the center, spread and shape of the distribution. Change the value of p by increments of 0.1 (0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5, 0.6, 0.7.0.8,0.9, 1.0). What happens to the symmetry as p...

A. Suppose you take a sample of size n from a population and calculate a statistic from that sample. The statistic could be a sample proportion p, a sample mean x, or another statistic. Then suppose we repeat this process over and over again until we find all possible samples of size n from the population (this is a theoretical idea) and we calculate the same statistic from 1. each sample. The collection of all of the statistics calculated is...
Suppose the proportion of people affected by gluten sensitivity in the United States is 0.2. If we let (p^) be the proportion in a random sample of size n = 120, write the mean, standard deviation and sampling distribution of sample proportion, and find the approximate probability that the value of (p^) is less than the population proportion (p) by 0.01 or more within 0.01 of the p not within 0.01 of the p

6. The sampling distribution of the sample proportion In 2007, about 30% of new-car purchases in California were financed with a home equity loan. [Source: "Auto Industry Feels the Pain of Tight Credit," The New York Times, May 27, 2008.] The ongoing process of new-car purchases in California can be viewed as an infinite population Define p as the proportion of the population of new-car purchases in California...
