Distribution of the Sample Proportion

Sample Proportion sample proportion is a statistic that estimates the population proportion p.

   

“By Hand” Step 1: Find the mean and standard deviation Step 2: Convert the value(s) you are working with to a z score (round z score to 2 decimal places) Step 3: Look it up in the table based on area to the right, left, and in between

NormalCDF Usage Step 1: Find the mean and standard deviation Step 2: Convert the value(s) you are working with to a z score (round z score to 2 decimal places) Step 3: Plug it into one of the following 3 forms

1. Distribution of the Sample Proportion  

1. Distribution of the Sample Proportion (cont.) b) In the sample obtained in part (a), what is the probability the proportion of visitors who are from outside of the United States is greater than 0.74? c) In the sample obtained in part (a), what is the probability the proportion of visitors who are from outside of the United States is less than 0.65?

1. Distribution of the Sample Proportion (cont.) d) In the sample obtained in part (a), what is the probability the proportion of visitors who are from outside of the United States is between 0.60 and 0.68? e) Would it be unusual that, in a survey of 800 YouTube visitors that 400 or fewer are from outside of the United States?
