Suppose we have a binomial experiment in which success is defined to be a particular quality or attribute that interests us.
(a)
Suppose n = 31 and p = 0.20.
(For each answer, enter a number. Use 2 decimal places.)
n·p =
n·q =
Can we approximate p̂ by a normal distribution?
Why? (Fill in the blank. There are four answer blanks. A blank is
represented by _____.)
_____, p̂ _____ be approximated by a normal random
variable because _____ _____.
third blank
n·p and n·q do not exceed
n·q does not exceed
n·p exceeds
n·q exceeds
n·p does not exceed
both n·p and n·q exceed
fourth blank
(Enter an exact number.)
What are the values of μp̂ and
σp̂? (For each answer, enter a number.
Use 3 decimal places.)
μp̂ = mu sub p hat
=
σp̂ = sigma sub p hat
=
