Answer:
95.44% probability the resulting sample proportion is within .04 of the true proportion.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For the sampling distribution of the sample proportion in sample of size n, the mean is and the standard deviation is
In this question:
So
How likely is the resulting sample proportion to be within .04 of the true proportion (i.e., between .16 and .24)?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 0.24 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.16.
X = 0.24
By the Central Limit Theorem
has a pvalue of 0.9772.
X = 0.16
has a pvalue of 0.0228.
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544
95.44% probability the resulting sample proportion is within .04 of the true proportion.
Answer: 86.64%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable that represents the diameter of metal samples.
Given : Population mean :
Standard deviation:
Specified tolerance on the diameter is 0.75 mm.
i.e. range of diameter = 10-0.75< x <10+0.75 = 9.25< x< 10.75
Formula to find the z-score corresponds to x:
At x= 0.75,
Using standard normal table for z-value,
P-value :
∴ Percentage of samples manufactured using this process satisfy the tolerance specification = 86.64%
