Repeat part (b)-(e) of Exercise \(11.9\) for samples of size \(5\).

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part a. Population proportion \(p=0.4\)

Part b. A table is created with all the possible samples of size \(5\).

Part c.

Part d. Mean of sample proportions is \(\mu_{p}=0.4\)

part e. The answer to part (a) and (d) are the same.

Step by step solution

01

Part a. Step 1. Given information 

A population consists of three men Jose, Peter, Carlo and two women Gail and Frances. Specified attribute is "Female".

02

Part a. Step 2. Calculation

As per the given information, group has three men and two women. Specified attribute is being a female.

Therefore, number of success is \(x=2\) and population size is \(n=5\).

So, population proportion would be \(p=\frac{x}{n}=\frac{2}{5}=0.4\).

03

Part b. Step 1. Calculation

As per the given information, group has three men and two women. Specified attribute is being a female. Sample proportion size is \(n=5\).

A table is created with all the possible samples of size \(5\).

Sample

Number of females \((x)\)

Sample proportion \(\hat{p}=\frac{x}{n}\)

J, P, C, G, F

\(2\)

\(\frac{2}{5}=0.4\)

04

Part c. Step 1. Calculation

From part (a) of this exercise, Population proportion is \(p=0.4\).

From part (b) of this exercise, sample proportion is obtained for each sample of size \(5\) and below dot plot is created.

05

Part d. Step 1. Calculation

From part (a) of this exercise, Population proportion is \(p=0.4\).

From part (b) of this exercise, sample proportion is obtained for each sample of size \(5\).

Mean of sample proportions, \(\mu _{\hat{p}}=\frac{\sum \hat{p}}{10}\)

\(\Rightarrow \mu _{\hat{p}}= \frac{0.4}{1}\)

\(\Rightarrow \mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.4\)

06

Part e. Step 1. Calculation

From part (a) of this exercise, Population proportion is \(p=0.4\) .

From part (b) of this exercise, mean of sample proportions, \(\mu _{\hat{p}}= 0.4\)

Both value are same because, the mean of all sampling distribution, \(\hat{p} \) , is same as the population proportion, \(p\).

Life Support. In 2005, the Terri Schiavo case focused national attention on the issue of withdrawal of life support from terminally ill patients or those in a vegetative state. A Harris Poll of 1010 U.S. adults was conducted by telephone on April 5-10, 2005 Of those surveyed, 140 had experienced the death of at least one family member or close friend within the last 10 years who died after the removal of life support. Find and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all U.S. adults who had experienced the death of at least one family member or close friend within the last 10 years after life support had been withdrawn.

A Wall Street Journal article, titled "Hypertension Drug Linked to Cancer," reported on a study of several types of high-blood-pressure drugs and links to cancer. For one type, called calcium-channel blockers, 27of 202elderly patients taking the drug developed cancer. For another type, called beta-blockers, 28of 424other elderly patients developed cancer. Find a 90%confidence interval for the difference between the cancer rates of elderly people taking calcium-channel blockers and those taking beta-blockers. Note: The results of this study were challenged and questioned by several sources that claimed, for example, that the study was flawed and that several other studies have suggested that calcium-channel blockers are safe.

Refer to the study on ordering vegetarian considered in Examples 11.8-11.10.

a. Without making a guess for the observed values of the sample proportions, find the common sample size that will ensure a margin of error of at most 0.01for a 90%confidence interval. Hint: Use Exercise 11.133.

b. Find a90%confidence interval for p1-p2if, for samples of the size determined in part (a), 38.3%of the men and 43.7%of the women sometimes order veg.

c. Determine the margin of error for the estimate in part (b), and compare it to the required margin of error specified in part (a).

Ballistic Fingerprinting. Guns make unique markings on bullets they fire and their shell casings. These markings are called holistic fingerprints. An ABCNEWS Podl examined the opinions of Americans on the enactment of a law "...that would require every gun sold in the United States to be test-fired first, so law enforcement would have its fingerprint in case it were ever used in a crime."

level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that women tend to favor ballistic fingerprinting more than men'?
