Question
There’s no need to do a, but I am stuck with the rest
- In Europe, 53% of flowers of the rewardless
orchid, Dactylorhiza sambucina, are yellow,
whereas the remaining flowers are purple
(Gigord et al. 2001). For this problem, you
may use the normal approximation only if it is
appropriate to do so.
a. If we took a random sample of a single
individual from this population, what is the
probability that it would be purple?
b. If we took a random sample of five indi-
viduals, what is the probability that at least
three are yellow?
c. If we took many samples of n = 5 indi-
viduals, what is the expected standard
deviation of the sampling distribution for the
proportion of yellow flowers?
d. If we took a random sample of 263
individuals, what is the probability that no
more than 150 are yellow?
