Question

the number of defectives in 10 different samples of 50 observations each is the following: 5, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 1, 4, 2, 3. what is the estimate of the population proportion of defectives?

Answer 1

The estimate of the population proportion of defectives is 0.05.

Given that,

There are 10 different samples of 50 observations, that is, total of 500 observations.

To find : The estimate of the population proportion of defectives

And total number of defectives from 500 observations is (5+1+1+2+3+3+1+4+2+3) = 25

Thus, the point estimate for the population proportion defectives will be,

=25/500=0.05

or just obtain the individual proportion of each sample and then take their average to obtain the same result.

Thus, the point estimate for the population proportion defectives will be 0.05
