In a certain county 35% of the people have more than one sibling. Suppose a simple random sample of 650 people is selected. Use the central limit theorem to calculate the probability that less than 37% of these people have more than one sibling.
for normal distribution z score =(p̂-p)/σp | |
here population proportion= p= | 0.350 |
sample size =n= | 650 |
std error of proportion=σp=√(p*(1-p)/n)= | 0.0187 |
probability = | P(X<0.37) | = | P(Z<1.07)= | 0.8577 |
(try 0.8575 if this comes wrong and revert)

A Food Marketing Institute found that 54% of households spend more than $125 a week on groceries. Assume the population proportion is 0.54 and a simple random sample of 98 households is selected from the population. hthe ample proportion of households spending more than $125 a weck is more than than 0.4 Note Yousthould caceflly round any z-values you caleulate to 4 decimal places to match wamap's approach and calculations Answer(Enter your answer as a number accurate to 4 decimal...
SAT scores have a mean of 1000 and a standard deviation of 220. Q18: What is the probability that a random student will score more than 1400? Q19: Using the Central Limit Theorem, what is the probability that sample of 100 students will have an average score less than 990? Q20: Using the Central Limit Theorem, what is the probability that sample of 100 students will have an average score between 990 and 1010? USE EXCEL FUNCTIONS TO CALCULATE YOUR...
One recent research with 863 people randomly selected from LA county suggest that 3.5% of its 10.4 million residents had been infected by COVID-19. One condition for central limit theorem is not satisfied here, because the sample size 863 is too small comparing to the total population 10.4 million. True or false?
Suppose voters from a simple random sample of 500 (N > 1,000,000) are interviewed and asked which presidential candidate they're going to vote for. Of these, 35% say they'll vote for the Statistics Party. You want to know the probability, assuming this proportion is correct for the population, that more than 40% of a random sample of 500 people will vote for the Statistics Party. Which of these shows the three ways you could find your answer? A. A-Using the...
4. A lift has an occupancy warning of no more than 25 people and of total weight no more than 1950kg. For a population of users, suppose weights are normally distributed with mean 75kg and standard deviation 10kg (a) What is the probability that the total weight of a random sample of 25 people from the population exceeds 1950kg? (b) Calculate the probability that a random sample of 24 people sets the alarm off. (c) Suppose people carry things with...

Suppose that the time duration of a minor surgery is approximately normally distributed with mean equal to 800 seconds and a standard deviation of 40 seconds. Find the probability that a random sample of 16 surgeries will have average time duration of less than 775 seconds. Use the central limit theorem 9-
8. If 200 people are randomly selected, what is the probability that more than 25% of them voted in the primary? 0.2004 Jo. 20x0.80 -0.0283 1-P(p<.as). 200 -0.0386 9. In the state of North Carolina, there are 6,674,209 registered voters. In the May 2018 Primary election, 957.627 people voted. What is the population proportion of voters? (Round to the nearest percent) population proportion = 957627 /6:674209 -0.14 10. If a random sample of 30 people from North Carolina is taken,...
1. Lucille has a collection of more than 1000 songs on her phone that have a mean duration of 215 seconds and a standard deviation of 35 seconds. Suppose that every week she makes a playlist by taking a simple random sample of 50 of these songs, and we calculate the sample mean duration of the songs in each sample. A. Find the probability that the sample mean is between 200 and 220 seconds. B. Find the probability that a...
PROBLEM 2 The number of accidents in a certain city is modeled by a Poisson random variable with average rate of 10 accidents per day. Suppose that the number of accidents in different days are independent. Use the central limit theorem to find the probability that there will be more than 3800 accidents in a certain year. Assume that there are 365 days in a year.
