Question

Suppose a simple random sample of size n = 1000 is obtained from a population whose size is N = 1,500,000 and whose population proportion with a specified characteristic is p = 0.65.

a. Describe the sampling distribution of  ^ p

b. What is the probability of obtaining x = 680 or more individuals with the characteristic?  P ( x ≥ 680 )  = _____  (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

a. The sampling distribution is

b. P ( x ≥ 680  = 0.0233

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sample Size, n = 1000

Population Size, N = 1500000

^ p  = 0.65

a.

To describe the sampling distribution of  ^ p , means to calculate the mean and the standard error of the sampling distribution (μ,σ)

From the question, we have

μp = P = 0.65

Calculating the standard error, σp

σp =

By Substitution

σp =

σp =

σp =

σp =

σp =

σp =

Hence, the sampling distribution is

b. Calculate P ( x ≥ 680 )

First, we need to determine the z-value

z = (^p - p)/σp

where ^p = 0.680, p = 0.65, σp = 0.0151

By Substitution

So, P ( x ≥ 680 ) = 1 - P(z<1.99)

From z table, P(z<1.99) = 0.9767

P ( x ≥ 680 ) = 1 - P(z<1.99) becomes

P ( x ≥ 680 ) = 1 - 0.9767

P ( x ≥ 680  = 0.0233

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier

what i would say the best answer is a. 40.5
