<span>n = n0(1 - 0.08)^t 
= n0(0.92)^t 

Putting n = n0 / 2: 
1 / 2 = 0.92^t 
t = log(1 / 2) / log(0.92) 
= 8.31 yr.</span><span>

Two coins, A and B, each have a side for heads and a side for tails. When coin A is tossed, the probability it will land tails-s
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Is the number of tosses for each coin enough for the sampling distribution of the difference in sample proportions PA-PB to be approximately normal?

b. No, 20 tosses for coin A is enough, but 20 tosses for coin B is not enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

The probability of coin A landing tails-side up = 0.5

The proportion of times coin A lands tails-side up (PA) = 20 * 0.5 = 10

Therefore, the probability of coin A landing heads-side up = 0.5 (1 - 0.5)  

And the proportion of times that coin A lands heads-side up = 20 * 0.5 = 10.  

The proportion on either side is equally distributed.

This is why 20 tosses for coin A is enough, since the sample proportions PA is approximately normal, symmetric, and equally distributed.  There will be equal amounts of 10 tosses (0.5 *20) for either heads-side up or tails-side up.

For coin B, the probability of landing tails-side up = 0.8

The proportion of times coin B lands tails-side up (PB) = 20 * 0.8 = 16

Therefore, the probability of coin B landing heads-side up = 0.2 (1 - 0-.8)

The proportion on either side is not equally distributed, but skewed.

This is why 20 tosses for coin B is not enough, since the sample proportions PB is not approximately normal, symmetric, and equally distributed.  There will be 16 tosses landing tails-side up (0.8*20) and only 4 tosses landing heads-side up (0.2*20).
