Consider a population consisting of two types of objects denoted x = 0,1. Suppose the proportion of 1s in the population is pi. Take samples of size n=2. a) What's the probability that the larger of the two numbers is 0? b) What's the probability that the larger of the two numbers is 1? Hint: repeat the derivation of the binomial distribution but with X (I.e.,the number of heads out of n)replaced with Max (i.e., the maximum of the two numbers).

Suppose you want to estimate a particular population proportion p of “success”, say the proportion of Cal Poly students who plan to go to Coachella this year. Consider two methods of collecting data. 1) Select a simple random sample of size n for a fixed, specified n. Let X be the count of successes in the sample. For example, select a sample of n = 30 students, and say for the selected sample X = 3 students plan to attend...

A. Suppose you take a sample of size n from a population and calculate a statistic from that sample. The statistic could be a sample proportion p, a sample mean x, or another statistic. Then suppose we repeat this process over and over again until we find all possible samples of size n from the population (this is a theoretical idea) and we calculate the same statistic from 1. each sample.
