QUESTION $11$

$3\mathrm{.}70(3\mathrm{.}88)($a$)$ The Internal Revenue Service plans to examine an SRS of individual returns from each

state. One variable of interest is the proportion of returns claiming itemized deductions. The total

number of tax returns in a state varies from $14$ million in CA to $227,000$ in Wyoming. Will the variability of

the sample proportion vary from state to state if an SRS of $2000$ is taken in every state?

Yes because the percent of all returns will vary from state to state.

Yes because the percent of returns is more than $1\%$ for the smallest state.

No because the number of returns sampled is constant and the percent of total returns is less than

$1\%$ for all states.
