Answer:

$let \: the \: number \: be \: x \\ \frac{20 + x}{3} = 3x \\ \frac{3(20 + x)}{3} = (3x)3 \\ 20 + x = 9x \\ 20 = 9x - x \\ 20 = 8x \\ \frac{20}{8} = \frac{8x}{8} \\ x = 2.5$

Answer:

a) 0.4770

b) 3.9945

c) z-statistics seem a large value

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the standard deviation of the sample proportion based on the null hypothesis

Based on the null hypothesis:

$p_{0}$ : 0.35

and the standard deviation σ = $\sqrt{p_{0} *(1-p_{0}) }$ = $\sqrt{0.35 *0.65 }$ ≈0.4770

b. Find the z statistic

z-statistic is calculated as follows:

z= $\frac{X-p_{o} }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } }$ where

X is the proportion of employees in the survey who take advantage of the Credit Union ( $\frac{138}{300}=0.46$ )
$p_{0}$ is the proportion in null hypothesis (0.35)
s is the standard deviation (0.4770)
N is the sample size (300)
