A news article estimated that only 4 of those age 65 and older who prefer to watch the news rather than to read or listen watch the news online This estimate was based on a survey of a large sample of adult Americans Consider the population consisting of all adult Americans age 65 and older who prefer to watch the news and suppose that for this population the actual proportion who prefer to watch online is 0 04 standard deviation Content a A random sample of n 100 people will be selected from this population and p the proportion of people who prefer to watch online will be calculated What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of p Round your standard deviation to four decimal places mean b Is the sampling distribution of p approximately normal for random samples of size n 100 Explain The sampling distribution of p is approximately normal because np is less than 10 The sampling distribution of p is approximately normal because np is at least 10 The sampling distribution of p is not approximately normal because np is less than 10 The sampling distribution of p is not approximately normal because np is at least 10 O The sampling distribution of p is not approximately normal because n 1 p is less than 10 mean standard deviation c Suppose that the sample size is n 400 rather than n 100 What are the values for the mean and standard deviation when n 400 Round your standard deviation to four decimal places W Chapter 8 Homework MATH1123 section OB Fall 2023 WebAssign Does the change in sample size affect the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of p If not explain why not Select all that apply When the sample size increases the mean increases When the sample size increases the mean decreases When the sample size increases the mean stays the same The sampling distribution is always centered at the population mean regardless of sample size When the sample size increases the standard deviation increases When the sample size increases the standard deviation decreases When the sample size increases the standard deviation stays the same The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is always the same as the standard deviation of the population distribution regardless of sample size d Is the sampling distribution of p approximately normal for random samples of size n 400 Explain TO The sampling distribution of p is approximately normal because np and n 1 p are both at least 10 O The sampling distribution of p is approximately normal because np and n 1 p are both less than 10 approximately normal because np and n 1 p are both at least 10
