Answer:
The correct option is (a) 0.9780.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.
The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
As the sample selected is quite large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 110 > 30, the central limit theorem can be applied to approximate the sampling distribution of sample proportion by a Normal distribution.
The mean and standard deviation are:
Compute the probability that the sample proportion of students living in the dormitories falls in between 0.60 and 0.80 as follows:
*Use a <em>z</em>-table.
Thus, the probability that the sample proportion of students living in the dormitories falls in between 0.60 and 0.80 is approximately equal to 0.9780.
The correct option is (a).
