Question
According to a survey in a country, 21% of adults do not own a credit card. Suppose a simple random sample of 200 adults is obtained. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.

(a) Describe the sampling distribution of p, the sample proportion of adults who do not own a credit card. Choose the phrase that best describes the shape of the sampling distribution of p below.
O A. Not normal because ns0.05N and np(1 -p) 2 10
VB. Approximately normal because ns0.05N and np(1- p) 2 10
O C. Not normal because ns 0.05N and np(1 - p) < 10
O D. Approximately normal because ns0.05N and np(1-p) < 10
Determine the mean of the sampling distribution of p.
Ha = 0.21 (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Determine the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of p.
On = 0.029 (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
(b) What is the probability that in a random sample of 200 adults, more than 25% do not own a credit card?
The probability is 0.0838
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Interpret this probability.
If 100 different random samples of 200 adults were obtained, one would expect 8 to result in more than 25% not owning a credit card.
(Round to the nearest integer as needed.)
(c) What is the probability that in a random sample of 200 adults, between 20% and 25% do not own a credit card?
The probability is
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
