This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A given population proportion is .25. What is the probability of getting each of the following sample proportions

a) n = 110 and = p^ ≤ 0.21, prob = ?

b) n = 33 and p^ > 0.24, prob = ?

Round all z values to 2 decimal places. Round all intermediate calculation and answers to 4 decimal places.)

Answer:

a) the probability of getting the sample proportion is 0.1660

b) the probability of getting the sample proportion is 0.5517

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the questions

a)

population proportion = 0.25

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

sample size n = 110

mean = μ = 0.25

S.D = √( p( 1 - p) / n ) = √(0.25( 1 - 0.25) / 110 ) √( 0.1875 / 110 ) = 0.0413

Now, P( p^ ≤ 0.21 )

= P[ (( p^ - μ ) /S.D) < (( 0.21 - μ ) / S.D)

= P[ Z < ( 0.21 - 0.25 ) / 0.0413)

= P[ Z < -0.04 / 0.0413]

= P[ Z < -0.97 ]

from z-score table

P( X ≤ 0.21 ) = 0.1660

Therefore, the probability of getting the sample proportion is 0.1660

b)

population proportion = 0.25

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

sample size n = 33

mean = μ = 0.25

S.D = √( p( 1 - p) / n ) = √(0.25( 1 - 0.25) / 33 ) = √( 0.1875 / 33 ) = 0.0754

Now, P( p^ > 0.24 )  

= P[ (( p^ - μ ) /S.D) > (( 0.24 - μ ) / S.D)

= P[ Z > ( 0.24 - 0.25 ) / 0.0754 )

= P[ Z > -0.01 / 0.0754  ]

= P[ Z > -0.13 ]

= 1 - P[ Z < -0.13 ]

from z-score table

{P[ Z < -0.13 ] = 0.4483}

1 - 0.4483

P( p^ > 0.24 )  = 0.5517

Therefore, the probability of getting the sample proportion is 0.5517

If the first chapter of a certain book is 16 pages long and makes up 4% of the book, how many pages does the entire book have?
galina1969 [7]
If 16 pages equal to 4%, how many pages will equal to 100%?

4/100 = 16/x
4x=1600
X= 400

So total pages should be 400.

What is 1/7+ x = 2/3x
navik [9.2K]
1/7 + x = 2/3x
1/7 = 2/3x-x
1/7 = 2/3x - 1x
1/7 = -1/3x
-3/7 = x

ASAP! GIVING BRAINLIEST! Please read the question THEN answer correctly! No guessing. Show your work or give an explaination.
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

-When the function moves to the right or left to the x axis, the number has to be in "( )"

-If it moves to the right, you SUBTRACT the amount of units

-It it moves to the left, you ADD the amount of units.

So in this case, it is moving to the right 12 units so it is (x-12)^{2}
