The owners of Aunt Ermas Restaurant plan an advertising campaign with the claim that more people prefer
Question:
a. Identify the eight possible samples of size 3, and for each sample report the proportion that preferred pizza A.
b. In the entire Boston population, suppose that exactly half would prefer pizza A and half would prefer pizza D. Explain why the sampling distribution of the sample proportion who prefer Aunt Erma’s pizza, when n = 3, is
Sample Proportion Probability
0.......... 1/8
1/3.......... 3/8
2/3.......... 3/8
1.......... 1/8
c. In part b, we can also find the probabilities for each possible sample proportion value using the binomial distribution. Use the binomial with n = 3 and p = 0.50 to show that the probability of a sample proportion of 1/3 equals 3/8. (This equals the probability that x = 1 person out of n = 3 prefer pizza A. It’s especially helpful to use the binomial formula when p differs from 0.50, since then the eight possible samples listed in part a would not be equally likely.) Distribution
The word "distribution" has several meanings in the financial world, most of them pertaining to the payment of assets from a fund, account, or individual security to an investor or beneficiary. Retirement account distributions are among the most...
