A small college has an entering freshmen class of 600 students. Of these, 240 have brought their own personal computers to campus. A random sample of 110 entering freshmen was taken. What is the probability that the sample proportion of freshman students who brought their own personal computers to campus is between .42 and .46?

Answer #1

po = 0.4

n = 110

p1 = 0.42 ; p2 = 0.46

P(p1 <= p <= p2) = P(p <= p2) - P(p <= p1)

    (5.20) A selective college would like to have an entering class of 1200 students. Because not all students who are o↵ered admission accept, the college admits more than 1200 students. Past experience shows that about 70% of the students admitted will accept. The college decides to admit 1500 students. Assuming that students make their decisions independently, the number who accept has the B(1500, 0.7) distribution. If this number is less than 1200, the college will admit students from the waiting...
