B. Compute the z for the given word problem. 1. Newborn babies are more likely to be boys than girls. A random sample found 13,173 boys were born among 25,468 newborn children. The sample proportion of boys was 0.5172. 2. A politician claims that she will receive 60% of the votes in the upcoming election. Of a random sample of 200 voters, there were 100 who will surely vote for her.

EXAMPLE
1. Compute the z for the following:
2. Mr. Dela Cruz asserts that fewer than 5% of the bulbs that he sells are

; po = 10% = 0.1
74
defective. Suppose 300 bulbs are randomly selected, each are tested and
10 defectives bulbs are found. Compute the z for the given claim.
n= 74; p :
5
p =

АCTIVITY
A. Compute the z for each given claim (po), observed proportion ( p ) and the sample size (n).
1. po= 10%, p = 30, n = 100
2. po = 0.12, p=0.32, n = 248
3. Po= 20%, p = .58, n= 312
B. Compute the z for the given word problem.
1. Newborn babies are more likely to be boys than girls. A random sample found 13,173 boys were born among
25,468 newborn children. The sample proportion of boys was 0.5172.
2. A politician claims that she will receive 60% of the votes in the upcoming election. Of a random sample of 200
voters, there were 100 who will surely vote for her.
