Question
Suppose a simple random sample of size
nequals=50
is obtained from a population whose size is
Upper N=20,000
and whose population proportion with a specified characteristic is p=0.4.Complete parts ​(a) through​ (c)
below.
​(a) Describe the sampling distribution of
ModifyingAbove p with caretp.
Choose the phrase that best describes the shape of the sampling distribution below.
 
 
A.
Approximately normal because
n less than or equals 0.05 Upper Nn≤0.05N
and np left parenthesis 1 minus p right parenthesis less than 10.np(1−p)<10.
 
B.
Approximately normal because
n less than or equals 0.05 Upper Nn≤0.05N
and np left parenthesis 1 minus p right parenthesis greater than or equals 10.np(1−p)≥10.
Your answer is correct.
 
C.
Not normal because
n less than or equals 0.05 Upper Nn≤0.05N
and np left parenthesis 1 minus p right parenthesis greater than or equals 10.np(1−p)≥10.
 
D.
Not normal because
n less than or equals 0.05 Upper Nn≤0.05N
and np left parenthesis 1 minus p right parenthesis less than 10.np(1−p)<10.
 
Determine the mean of the sampling distribution of
ModifyingAbove p with caretp.
 
mu Subscript ModifyingAbove p with caret Baseline equalsμp=nothing
​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)
