 6. A sampling distribution is shown for the proportion of people

6. A sampling distribution is shown for the proportion of people who die from colon cancer after having polyps removed in a colonoscopy with random samples of size 2600 and 100 samples were drawn (There are 100 dots in the distribution). a. Describe the sampling distribution using statistical language. (Hint: The shape) (1 point) b. Use the distribution to estimate the proportion of ALL people who die from colon cancer after having polyps removed in a colonoscopy. Give correct notation for your answer. (2 points) If we take a random sample of 2600 people who've had polyps removed in a colonoscopy and compute the proportion of the sample who died from colon cancer, indicate how likely it is that we will see that result for each sample below. (Very likely, fairly unlikely, very unlikely.) (3 points) p = 0.005 p = 0.009 P =0.03 d. If we take a random sample of 2600 people who've had polyps removed in a colonoscopy and compute the proportion of the sample who died from colon cancer and we get a sample proportion of 0.016. Use the distribution above to compute the p-value for this result (remember, there are 1000 dots in the distribution.) (2 points)
