69% of people living in a certain city are opposed to the use of a guard camera. A random sample of 178 people from a population of 15,000 is obtained. The 178 people are asked to think about the use of a watchdog. If p^ the proportion of the sample that says it opposes, what is the mean of the sample distribution of p^? (result to two decimal places)
Homework Answers
the mean of the sample distribution of p^ = 0.69
Explanation -
If repeated random samples of a given size n are taken from a population of values for a categorical variable, where the proportion in the category of interest is p, then the mean of all sample proportions (p-hat) is the population proportion (p).

PART 1 Let X represent the average age of people living in Sun City. Assume that X has a normal probability distribution with μ=72 years and σ=10 years. You intend to measure a random sample of n=51 people. What is the mean of the distribution of sample means? μ¯x= What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means (i.e., the standard error in estimating the mean)?

0-75% of people live in the city and 25% live in the suburbs. we take a random sample of 1200 people. What is the probability that the number of these living in the suburbs is less than 270? This is a binomial distribution with a mean of 300 and a variance of 225. We can approximate by the normal distribution if we make a correction for continuity. In this case it means we use 269.5 instead of 270. Now use...
