Consider a population consisting of two types of objects denoted x = 0,1. Suppose the proportion of 1s in the population is pi. Take samples of size n=2. a) What's the probability that the larger of the two numbers is 0? b) What's the probability that the larger of the two numbers is 1? Hint: repeat the derivation of the binomial distribution but with X (I.e.,the number of heads out of n)replaced with Max (i.e., the maximum of the two numbers).

If we sample from a small finite population without replacement, the binomial distribution should not be used because the events are not independent. If sampling is done without replacement and the outcomes belong to one of two types, we can use the hypergeometric distribution. If a population has A objects of one type, while the remaining B objects are of the other type, and if n objects are sampled without replacement, then the probability of getting x objects of type...

Suppose you want to estimate a particular population proportion p of “success”, say the proportion of Cal Poly students who plan to go to Coachella this year. Consider two methods of collecting data. 1) Select a simple random sample of size n for a fixed, specified n. Let X be the count of successes in the sample. For example, select a sample of n = 30 students, and say for the selected sample X = 3 students plan to attend...
