SOLUTION:
From given data,
Based on a smartphone survey, assume that 44% of adults with smartphones use them in theaters. In a separate survey of 270 adults with smartphones, it is found that 101 use them in theaters.
a. If the 44% rate is correct, find the probability of getting 101 or fewer smartphone owners who use them in theaters.
Compute the mean and standard deviation then find probability.
The mean of the sampling distribution is,
= n*p
= 270*0.44
= 118.8
The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is,
= sqrt(np(1-p))
= sqrt(270*0.44(1-0.44))
= sqrt(270*0.44*0.56)
= 8.156
Now computing Z score then find probability based on standard normal table,
The continuity correction is subtract 0.5 for the greater than probability of 101 or fewer pass.
For x = 100.5 converts to
z = (x -
) /
= (100.5 - 118.8) / 8.156 = -18.3 / 8.156 = -2.24
From the standard normal distribution table,the associated probability for the area to the left is shown below,
P(z < -2.24) = 0.0126
If the 44% rate is correct, the probability of getting 101 or fewer smartphone owners who use them in theaters is 0.0126
b. Is the result of 101 significantly low?
The result of 101 is significantly low due to the probability of getting 101 or fewer smartphone owners who use them in theaters is small which is 1.26%.

Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 44% use them in meetings or classes. If 7 adult smartphone users are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 3 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes. The probability is _______ Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 44% use them in meetings or classes. If 7 adult smartphone users are randomly selected, find the probability that exactly 5 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes. The probability is (round to four decimals places as needed.)
Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 44% use them in meetings or classes. If 13 adult smartphone users are randomly selected, find the probability that fewer than 5 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes.
Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 4242% use them in meetings or classes.
