Suppose that previous surveys of adult Americans show that 43% of adult Americans own a pet. You are about to randomly sample 400 adult Americans to see if they currently own a pet. 3) Show that the sampling distribution of p-hat is normally distributed and write the mean and st. dev of p-hat using the appropriate variables. (Round the st. dev to FOUR places) 4) What is the probability that more than 51% of the sampled adults have a pet?...
A random sample will be selected from the population of all adult residents of a particular city. The sample proportion ˆp will be used to estimate p, the proportion of all adult residents who do not own a car. For which of the following situations will the estimate tend to be closest to the actual value of p? i. n = 500, p = 0.1 ii. n = 1000, p = 0.2 iii. n = 1200, p = 0.3
2) In a recent poll, the Gallup Organization found that 45% of adult Americans believe that the overall state of moral values in the United States is poor. Suppose a survey of a random sample of 500 adult Americans is conducted in which they are asked to disclose their feelings on the overall state of moral values in the United States. Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability that a. Exactly 270 of those surveyed feel...
The Pew Research Center found that 38.6% of adult Americans believe that marriage is now obsolete. Suppose a random sample of 550 American adults is asked whether marriage is obsolete. Describe the sampling distribution of " role="presentation">pˆ by using the " role="presentation">N(mean,sd) notation and reporting the mean and standard deviation of the sample proportion of American adults who believe that marriage is now obsolete. What is the probability that in a random sample of 550 American adults that less than...
4 Chapter 7 Test B 16. [Objective: Calculate and interpret confidence intervals for a proportion) A random sample of 950 adult television viewers showed that 48% planned to watch sporting event X. The margin of error is 4 percentage points with a 95% confidence level. Does the confidence interval support the claim that the majority of adult television viewers plan to watch sporting event X? No; the confidence interval means that we are 95% confident that the population proportion of...
