Normal distribution to approximate binomial distribution
Decide whether the normal distribution can be used to
approximate the binomial distribution. If it can, use the z-test to test the
claim about the population proportion p for the given sample statistics and
level of significance a.
^
A. Claim: p
< 0.70; a = 0.01 Statistics: p = 0.50, n = 68
^
B. Claim: p
< 0.50; a = 0.10 Statistics: p = 0.71, n = 129
Test the claim about the indicated population parameter with
? a (X^2) -test using the given sample statistics and level of significance a.
Assume the population is normally distributed.
A. Claim: ?
^2 ? 60 a = 0.025
Statistics: s?2 = 72.7, n = 15
B. Claim: ?
? 0.035: a = 0.01
Statistics: s = 0.026, n = 16
