Answer:

0.0838 = 8.38% probability of obtaining a sample proportion less than 0.5.

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 normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Proportion of 0.6

This means that p = 0.6

Sample of 46

This means that n = 46

Mean and standard deviation:

\mu = p = 0.6

s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.6*0.4}{46}} = 0.0722

Probability of obtaining a sample proportion less than 0.5.

p-value of Z when X = 0.5. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{0.5 - 0.6}{0.0722}

Z = -1.38

Z = -1.38 has a p-value of 0.0838

0.0838 = 8.38% probability of obtaining a sample proportion less than 0.5.

Find all values of c such that
klemol [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

c/(c - 5) = 4/(c - 4)

By Cross-multiplying,

We have c(c - 4) = 4(c - 5).

=> c² - 4c = 4c - 20

=> c² - 8c + 20 = 0

Since the discriminant is negative,

there are no real solutions for c.

However, there exist complex solutions for c.

Using the Quadratic Formula,

c = [8 ± √(-16)]/2

=> c = 4 ± √(-4)

=> c = 4 ± 4i or c = 4(1 ± i).

Eric runs 3 miles in 28 minutes. at the same rate how many miles would he run in 42 minutes?
Nastasia [14]
3miles/ 28 minutes times 42 minutes is equal to 4.5 miles.

Therefore, Eric run 4.5 miles in 42 minutes.

Hopefully this helps!
